Oiso Prince Hotel (Location: 259-0193 At 546 Kokufu-Hongo, Oiso-machi, Naka-gun, Kanagawa Prefecture (General Manager: Fumiaki Fukawa), a local forestry group carried out Oiso thinning on Saturdays from November 23, 2024 (Saturday) to February 22, 2025 (Saturday). We offer the “OISO Bonfire Garden” where you can experience a bonfire without bringing your own using Swedish torches. At the outdoor garden terrace on the 1st floor of the hotel spa building, you can experience a moment of freedom from everyday life as you enjoy Oiso drinks and bonfire sweets while enjoying the 1/F flickering of the flames. 1/f fluctuation refers to the unique rhythms and fluctuations found in the natural world, and similar rhythms exist in human heartbeats and brain waves, so when you come into contact with 1/f fluctuation, your body feels comfortable. You can spend a heartwarming time surrounded by a fire, feeling connected to nature and with people. ◼︎ Background of implementation This winter is expected to be colder than last year, which was milder than last year due to the La Niña phenomenon. October is warm like early fall, and November is cold like late fall, so it may feel colder than the actual temperature. （＊） We devised this experience with the idea that even in the cold of winter, you could easily experience a bonfire where you can enjoy the cold winter air, scenery, and atmosphere. We provide a moment when all five senses are awakened by the “1/f fluctuation” of the flame. *Japan Weather Association https://weather-jwa.jp/news/topics/post3641
