What is the Japanese hotel's steamed bread holiday house like?

According to foreign media reports, a natural health theme park located in the middle of Kyushu, Japan, with a lovely earthquake-resistant round cabin as its selling point, has been well received by Asian tourists since its launch.

According to the report, the Asu Farm Hotel in Kumamoto Prefecture is adjacent to an active volcano, and each holiday house is made of 12 polystyrene foam (commonly known as styrofoam). Although this material is light, it has strong seismic performance. In April last year, a strong earthquake with heavy casualties occurred in Kumamoto Prefecture, but the holiday house of Asu Farm Hotel was not damaged.

Masaya Koshi, hotel manager of Asu Farm, said that round houses are not easily damaged by strong winds or earthquakes because they have no beams and columns. He said, "all the rooms are in good condition, and no glass has been broken."

Kesin Beichuan, director of Asu Farm Hotel, said in an interview that the dome was inspired by Japanese steamed bread, a traditional Japanese dim sum filled with bean paste.

Beichuan, who used to work in Japanese and fruit industry, said that he thought it would be interesting to let guests live in a small house like "steamed bread", so he decided to use the appearance of this snack as the design of the guest room, and at the same time, he brought Kumamon, the mascot of Kumamoto Prefecture, into the design.

Facts have proved that this colorful and lovely holiday house is very attractive to all families.
