Summer is the time when the autonomic nerves are easily disturbed due to heat and excessive cooling. July-August Tomamu with an average temperature of around 18 ℃ is ideal for sports. Let’s refresh your body and soul by taking advantage of the environment surrounded by nature.
Power walking is an exercise that uses your entire body to walk faster and more stride than usual while being aware of deep breathing. In addition to aerobic exercise, breathing is conscious of abdominal breathing, which is inhaled through the nose and exhaled through the mouth, and enhances the effect of strengthening lung function. In addition, the stress reduction effect improves immunity. You can move your body as much as you want in the wilderness far from the hustle and bustle.
We will walk a course with an altitude difference of about 700 meters and a distance of 4.8 kilometers from the foot of Mt. Tomamu to the summit. On the course, you may encounter wild animals such as sika deer and red fox, so you can enjoy power walking while feeling the nature up close.
After power walking, breakfast will be prepared at a superb view point overlooking the surrounding mountains from the summit of Mt. Tomamu. This breakfast supplements sugar, which is an energy source, and proteins, vitamins, and minerals that repair muscles so that you can recover your physical strength after exercising. The main is a cloud-shaped sandwich with lots of ingredients. For the smoothies we serve together, we mainly use Haskap, which is a summer fruit that represents Hokkaido and is rich in vitamin E, iron, and calcium.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
