Ningle Terrace
An Enchanted Craft Village in the Forest of Furano
Tucked away in Furano’s forests, Ningle Terrace is a charming craft village with about 15 cozy log cabins scattered among the trees. Wooden boardwalks connect them, creating a fairy-tale setting.
The name “Ningle” comes from stories by renowned Japanese screenwriter Kuramoto So. Ningles are tiny forest dwellers, about 15 centimeters (6 inches) tall, known as the “wise people of the woods.” Their harmony with nature lingers in this peaceful setting.
Stroll along the wooden paths, listening to their gentle creaks and breathing in the fresh pine scent. Each cabin showcases handmade glass, wood, leather, and silver crafts. Works inspired by Furano’s forests and seasons offer a warm connection to the region’s natural beauty.
Some workshops let you watch artisans at work as stitching and carving echo through the quiet forest. Wandering here offers a peaceful escape from everyday life.
In winter, snow-covered roofs and warm lights create a magical atmosphere. The scenery looks like a storybook scene, while fans of the TV drama Yasashii Jikan can discover a setting associated with the series. Enjoy Furano’s changing forest beauty and handmade crafts throughout the seasons.
