Mirai Combini
(Future Convenience Store)
The Mirai Combini is creating quite the media buzz these days. A Convenience store holding a promise to the Future children of Kito, and a recent winner of... a never ending list of design awards.
The main idea behind the Mirai convenience store is to put focus on "children", who will inherit the future. A very relevant topic in a village suffering from a dwindling population. The store’s shelves are designed to be easy access for children, and it also has a cafe space where children as well as other locals and visitors can take a break and connect with each other. The combini also focuses on events and other content relevant to children.
Besides this the Mirai convenience store also has a striking design (recently earning it a RED DOT - Best of the Best award, among a long list of other awards).

Camp Park Kito is the town's answer to "glamping". Its modern facilities offer everything you would want from a camp site and then some. Excellent facilities for BBQ, a luxurious riverside spa and an on site restaurant just to mention a few.
Its secluded riverside location also makes it a perfect place to slow down, relax and enjoy the beautiful nature. And if this slow life makes restlessness sneak up on you, river play and various activities are there to help!
