Hi, I’m Tabi!

Toyoake in Aichi offers traces of the Battle of Okehazama and neighborhood parks. Start in the traditional battlefield area and plan transport separately for the castle ruins.

This guide covers places within Toyoake, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Okehazama traditional battlefield site in Toyoake, June 201401

A first-visit stop

Okehazama Battlefield Traditional Site

桶狭間古戦場伝説地

A historic site associated with the Battle of Okehazama, pictured in June 2014. Distinguish it from the similarly named battlefield site in Nagoya and check the Toyoake Sakaecho address.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

A first-visit stop

Kutsukake Castle Ruins Park

沓掛城址公園

A park with a former main enclosure, earthworks and moat remains, rather than an intact castle building. The March 2018 cherry-blossom photo does not guarantee flowers during your visit.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

The tourism association features local vegetables at the JA direct-sales morning market. Check market dates and availability and ask producers about ingredients and preparation; do not expect a daily market or every crop to be available.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Explore open paths and interpretation boards at the traditional battlefield site. Check the approach from Meitetsu Chukyo-keibajo-mae Station and your return; the castle ruins can be a separate outing.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
