Kiyoharu Art Village

Kiyoharu Art Village is located on the site of the closed Kiyoharu Elementary School, and is a famous cherry blossom spot where about 30 Somei-Yoshino cherry trees planted in the schoolyard by the students in March 1925 still remain.

The stately row of cherry trees, some over 80 years old, is a magnificent sight.

The 16-sided building "La Lish" located in the center of the art village blends beautifully with the cherry blossoms and Mount Kaikoma, and many people visit to take photos of this view.

It is designated as a natural monument by Yamanashi Prefecture.
