Touring wells, springs, and waterways with Princess Mizumeguri ~Tasting water and soup stock edition~

Matsumoto is a town of spring water. A walk in May is a great way to enjoy the water.
Let's walk around with a water spoon or original map in hand, keeping the theme in mind.
This year's theme for Mizumeguri Hime is dashi (Japanese soup stock), which was very popular last year. Thanks to an introduction from Ueda Katsuobushi Store, we will enjoy the different flavors of spring water in pottery made by various artists.
