Holidays in Shimonita-machi

When chucking a sickie becomes your new norm, it's time to take a breather from the corporate treadmill and say hello to Shimonita-machi!

It lies 110 kilometres to the northwest of Tokyo, the capital of Japan.

There are some lovely natural sights close to Shimonita-machi. Why not venture 30 kilometres to Mount Asama? Alternatively, you can enjoy the natural beauty of Kusatsu Hot Springs, 50 kilometres away.

Sports lovers don't need to worry about being left out in the cold during their visit. Karuizawa Indoor Tennis Court is 20 kilometres away in Karuizawa and a fantastic place to get your sporting fix. Don't forget to check the event schedule to see what's on.

There's nothing better than dragging yourself out of bed making your mark on a pristine slope at Mt. Naeba Ski Resort. After mastering all the trails there, grab your skis and see what's on offer at Nozawa Onsen Snow Resort.

Do you like the sound of Mount Myogi and Myogi Shrine? These fantastic attractions are in Tomioka, located just 7 kilometres northeast of Shimonita-machi. Or maybe the Tomioka Silk Mill and the Gunma Museum of Natural History appeal more to you? To visit them, head to Kanra-machi, 12 kilometres east.

Annaka, 15 kilometres to the north, may be right up your alley. Use it as a base when stopping by the Usui Pass Railway Culture Village, Myogi Piedmont Museum and the Kongoji Temple. If you're still not convinced, other close by sights include The remains of Usui Sekisho and Apt Street.

Eating is one of life's biggest pleasures, and since you're reading this, you probably think travel is too. Combine your excitement for both by heading out and sampling the local cuisine at the bars, restaurants and cafés in town.

Wondering about some of the surprises you'll find on your dinner plate? There's a high chance they'll include beef, noodles or maybe even both.

Are you on the hunt for a distinctive Shimonita-machi eating experience? There are some specialties to keep an eye out for, such as tempura (deep fried seafood or vegetables) and sushi (raw seafood on vinegar rice).

It won't take much to persuade you to order some anpan (sweet roll), a sweet treat that'll make you want to sever all ties and settle down here forever.

Is there anything more refreshing than tossing back an ice-cold glass of beer topped off with a perfect foam head? Satiate your thirst and rub shoulders with a few locals over a round or two of Asahi Premium Beer Jukusen.

When the evening calls for something with a bit more zing, ask for junmaishu. Mixed or straight — the bartender should know the most satisfying way to drink it.

Start knocking down the communication barrier by memorising some expressions in the local tongue. You'll gain a more enriching experience and some new friends while you're at it! You may be glad you learnt 'Gokoūn o inorimasu', which translates to 'good luck'. 'Isshoni odorimasenka?' ('would you like to dance?') is another one you might need.

Intend to be here around the 23rd of December? What good luck. On this date each year, the whole nation joins together for Birthday of Emperor Akihito.

It's always hard to say "Sayōnara" to Shimonita-machi, but don't worry, it's not going anywhere!

Haneda Airport (HND), the nearest airport, is just 120 kilometres to the southeast from the middle of Shimonita-machi. Map out a route, pack up your suitcase and set your alarm clock — and make sure you don't hit the snooze button too many times!
