New Gathering Place at Obasute Station
ＪＲはこの秋に行う予定の「信州デスティネーションキャンペーン」へ向かって、姨捨駅の改造をしています。駅舎の切符売り場を再現して、くつろぎ広場が出来ました。イベントの時に、ここでボランティアーガイドたちが集まるようです。そして、ホームも半月の形の展望台ができるらしいです。今は工事中です。夜は善光寺平の夜景、お昼は「田毎の月」で有名の姨捨棚田はもっとよく見えるようになるでしょう。
姨捨駅の魅力はさらにアップ！
Japan Rail Group is making some improvements at Obasute Station ahead of this fall's Nagano Destination Campaign. The ticket office of the station house has been rebuilt, and will be used as a gathering place for local volunteer guides during events. The platform is also being rebuilt to include a half-moon shaped viewing platform. The lights of the Zenkoji Plain at night, and the moon-reflecting terraced rice fields during the day, should be especially beautiful as seen from the new deck once it's finished.
Obasute is becoming an even more enjoyable tourist spot!
