I will tell about Rabechilbi Turnip Festival’s history.

This Festival began in 1884.There is a custom of service in Switzerland. Farmer’s women who lived on the hill made turnip’s lamp to light a church to their house in middle of winter.

It is said that Rabechilbi Turnip Festival’ beginning. They told how to make turnip’s lamp. Then it became an annual event in Switzerland.

Animals in the Hill of Brume

I examined for animals in the Hill of Burume.

In Burume, we can see a show that sheep is controlled by dog. But now, it discontinues for sudden illness of shepherd’s dog.

In the touch experience of the rabbit, we can touch a very lovely, light rabbit. The brushing experience of the horse is a valuable experience that cannot be done easily. The horse is pleased. But we take a rest now.

Milking action is difficult, but it is very interesting. Moreover, we can ride a horse in the Hill of Burume.

We cannot usually take the pet, but the 2.4th Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday are 'Dog free day. 'So we can take a pet to enter a kindergarten for 300 yen each.
