I had a short trip to Obuse and Komoro of the Nagano Prefecture. Obuse is famous for the Paintings of Katsushika Hokusai and nuts. Komoro is well-known as the author of Shimazaki Touson and the ruins of the old castle. The middle aged Japanese would have interests on these sightseeing spots. However I found that Obuse people emphasized sales of their sightseeing spots. To the contrary, Komoro is declining to show the attractiveness of their sightseeing resources. In detail please refer to my essay on this trip.
