Haiku Slabs of Tota Kaneko

"Isekiko Kaneko" was the man who wrote the lyrics to "Chichibu Ondo." He and his first son "Tota Kaneko" made Minano their home, and much of their history and materials remain here.

Isekiko Kaneko wrote the lyrics to Chichibu Ondo. His first son Tota Kaneko, who is also a poet, is now the Gendai Haiku Association Honorary Chairman.

There are many haiku slabs by Tota Kaneko throughout Minano. We hope you will embark on a journey to view all of the haiku slabs.
