The Takeda Castle ruins in Asago city are called “The Castle in the Sky” as they look as if they are floating in the sky. In addition, there is another symbol of the city, which has been loved and protected by the locals; cherry blossoms in Ritsuunkyo which are located in front of the ruins. This combination is a classic example of beautiful scenery　produced in Japanese nature. A group of elders who are over 70 years old work to preserve it. This documentary follows the people who are struggling to preserve these two treasures for the next generation.
