Take a Walk Through Japan's History Along the Nakasendo

【Partners Information】

Walk the path of Japan's Edo Period past on the Nakasendo.

One of the five major roads of Japan from the 17th to mid-19th century, it supported travellers on their way between the former capital of Kyoto, and the new capital of Edo (present-day Tokyo).

Along the trail are a number of post towns, whose immaculately preserved townscapes will make you feel as if you've slipped back in time.
