[Iwate] “Tono Furusato Village” where you can experience “Maburitto” and mountain village life

Tono Furusato Village in Iwate Prefecture is a facility that recreates the traditional lifestyle of Tono, where you can participate in a number of experience programs

Visitors can actually get a feel for life in the mountains by doing farm work and other activities, and because an old-fashioned village has been recreated, it has recently become increasingly popular as a location for filming dramas and movies, including the hugely popular NHK historical drama "Sanada Maru."

Experience mountain village life with Maburito, including farm work and straw crafts

The Maburitto people, who live here while preserving the culture of Tono, actually carry out farm work and traditional events here on a regular basis, and will kindly teach visitors about these things

Folklore stories, soba noodle making, and pottery making experiences are popular with tourists, and some experiences can be done without a reservation, while others require a reservation in advance

You can also try delicious local Tono cuisine, and the restaurant is famous for its "Iwanakademeshi" (char rice), which won the top prize in a local cuisine competition. There are also five other local cuisine set menus, and reservations can be made in advance for groups of 7 to 180 people

In addition, various traditional events are held each season, including the Dobekko Festival, held in winter, where you can enjoy doburoku made in Tono Furusato Village and the local cloudy sake called "Dobekko."
