There are plenty of photo spots that will leave you with lasting memories.

There is a beautiful Japanese townscape from 400 years ago.

This time, we would like to introduce Magome-juku and Tsumago-juku juku. These post towns developed along the Nakasendo, one of the five main roads built during the Edo period. These two towns still retain strong traces of Japan from 400 years ago. From the seasonal flowers to the waterways along the streets and giant waterwheels, there are plenty of opportunities to take photos. There are plenty of spots that will make you want to take photos. (Some people actually live there, so please check whether it is possible to take photos before taking photos.)
