We had a very pleasant day exploring Nagano with our guide Waqas, who was extremely dedicated and did his best to provide us with the best possible experience. Although we didn’t get to see any monkeys at the Jigokudani Monkey Park - nature just didn’t cooperate that day - it was still a lovely walk through beautiful scenery. We also visited the impressive Zenko-ji Temple and the ruins of Matsushiro Castle, both of which are highly recommended. Overall, a well-organized and enjoyable day!
