In the 1997 fantasy war film, a tender Prince Ashitaka, cursed through Tatarigami, seeks a cure for the deer god Shishigami. During his travels, he sees Huguys ravaging the earth, tearing down the wrath of the wolf god Moro and his significant huguy another Saint, known as Princess Mononoke.
Director Hayao Miyazaki spent 16 years making plans for the film and three years running in animation. It grossed 193 billion yen (US$1.8 billion) at the cash workplace in Japan in the year of its release, making it the top compatibility film with the country at the time. Lately it’s the seventh highest compatibility film with proof of behavior in Japan, with other films through Ghibli Spirited Away in first place and Howl’s Moving Castle in fourth place.
Fans can live as if they were in Princess Mononoke once Hygge Circles Ugakei opened.
Hygge Circles Ugakei passes to be located in the Uga Valley, in the middle of the Inabe forests. The assignment was designed through the Danish outdoor aircraft carrier Nordisk, which is happening with the city of Inabe, the Danish design apple TREDJE NATUR and the Danish Embassy in Japan. According to the PR Times, the camp aims to “illustrate HYGGE in the nature of the Uga Valley”, touching the Danish and Norwegian word “hygge”, an environment of convenience and warmth.
The assets will be to provide tents, cottages and cottages for campers.
