Itinerary
1
Hiyodori Hill
This old path adjacent to the samurai residence street is surrounded by beautiful bamboo forests that have remained almost unchanged since the Edo period.
The gently curving slope is efficiently fenced with four-sided fences, bamboo blind fences, and gun fences, creating the atmosphere that a samurai might appear at any moment.

Bukeyashiki (Samurai Residences, Former Kawahara-San House)

Shinsho-ji Temple
Naritasan Shinshoji Temple is a historic temple, especially famous for its goma prayer. The main hall of the temple is majestic, and the splendid carvings in the inner sanctuary are a highlight of the temple. Nearby is the vast Naritasan Park, where visitors can enjoy the seasonal beauty of the area. The Niomon Gate and the three-story pagoda, both designated as important cultural properties, are also must-sees. Along the approach to the temple, there is a historic shopping street where visitors can enjoy local specialties after visiting the temple. Shinsho-ji Temple is a place where you can purify your body and soul and enjoy history and nature to the fullest.
The temple opens until 16:00, if you would like to book the tour later than 4pm, we will show you different spots.
