A Breath of Fresh Air: Finding Renewal at Makiba Park’s Lush Hilltop Pastures
都会を離れてリフレッシュ！牧場で過ごす癒しのひととき
Makiba Park, a prefectural ranch perched on a 1,400-meter (4,600 ft) plateau in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, is home to a variety of livestock, including sheep, goats, cows, and ponies. Here, visitors can get up close to the animals and even have the chance to pet some of them.
For me, however, the real allure lies in the gently rolling hills and lush, grassy meadows—scenes that are almost impossible to come by when living amidst the urban sprawl of Tokyo.
During this visit, I was curious to see if my border collie, Dale-chan, would show any instinctive interest in the grazing livestock, especially the sheep and cows that occasionally wandered over to the fence, seemingly intrigued by the sight of a dog. But Dale-chan, a true city dog, showed no interest whatsoever in the animals. It was a funny and endearing reminder that she's a city pup at heart!
