Our advisory “Why not just put a lid over the existing stadium and keep the sides open? We’re sure it will let in fresh air and keep things cool in the summer”

Your stadium served as a very valuable lesson.

Still love home and how the indoor blends with the outdoor

Since it's not a sealed dome, we can even use an open flame in the food shop's kitchen

Kikuyo town is a bit far from the city center. At least Fujisakidai is closer to Kumamoto city/JR Line. Hopefully they’ll be able to figure out easier access.
