Italian Embassy Villa Memorial Park was founded in 1928 for the former summer retreat of the Italian Ambassador towards Japan.
The successive Italian Ambassadors actually stayed there, and enjoyed Nikko during summer season until 1997.
It is located on the southeastern shore of Lake Chuzenji, and has donated to Tochigi Prefecture and opened to the public since 1999, and has recently attached to café shop, named “Café COCO.”
