In this month’s newsletter, we are featuring ‘Motegi‘ in Tochigi Prefecture, only 2 hours and 45 minutes from Tokyo.
If you have children, you can take the Locomotive Steam Train, which runs on the Moka Railway. You may also want to take children to Mobility Resort Motegi, which has a large amusement park with rides, mazes, and adventure play areas.
If you are into motorbike and car racing, the Mobility Resort Motegi also includes an international racing circuit that hosts world-class racing several times a year.
This month we had a friendly chat with Shota Iso from the Motegi Town’s Commercial Industry & Tourism Department, to learn everything about this green and sporty city.
He shared with us what Motegi is famous for: its festivals, delicious dishes and racing parks!
