In Japan, where a beautiful culture of appreciating rain has endured since ancient times, Tango is a coastal region that—unlike the old capital—has long lived in harmony with the sea and its bounty. Spend time savoring its rich nature and the changing seasons to your heart’s content. About 2.5 hours from Kyoto City. One hour to Ine’s Funaya boat houses. In Tango, a place that can truly be called secluded, cherish the rain and sink into quiet serenity. Ujo Soan is an adults-only retreat where time flows gently. Unwind as you shelter from the rain in five private detached villas, each with an open-air bath, and in the special villa “Zuiu.”

Facing the Sea of Japan, Tango–Kumihama is a scenic area where many beautiful landscapes remain. A legend has been passed down here. In the Kamakura period, the monk Ippen traveled across The whole country to save people, distributing nembutsu talismans and performing dancing nembutsu. After finishing his preaching in Kyoto and heading toward San’in, he was chanting the nembutsu in Kumihama when clouds suddenly gathered and a blue dragon appeared over the sea. Dragon worship has long been practiced in this region, and it is said that the blue dragon revealed itself before Ippen to form a bond with the nembutsu. Even today, the Sea of Japan as seen from Kumihama retains an air of mystery. Like Ippen once did, you can be embraced by this scenery and find rest here.
