Hi, I’m Tabi!

Tatebayashi offers azalea parks, temple folklore and noodle food culture in Gunma. Flower viewing and visiting Morinji are separate outings: check season and access and begin with one.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Photograph of Tsutsujigaoka Park01

A first-visit stop

Tsutsujigaoka Park

つつじが岡公園

A park of old azalea plants and seasonal scenery. The photograph dates to spring 2010 and guarantees no current flowering. Check separate arrangements for park areas and paid or seasonal viewing sections, leaving plants untouched.

Getting there
Locate the park in Tsutsujimachi and check current transport and entrances on the official map; review flower-viewing areas separately.

Photograph of Morinji Temple02

A first-visit stop

Morinji Temple

茂林寺

A temple linked to the Bunbuku Chagama tale, with traditional architecture. The photo shows its gate and surroundings in 2006, not access to every interior or treasure. Treat the story as folklore and respect worship, photography and protected areas.

Getting there
Check Morinji’s location in Horikucho and its current approach using official guidance, separately from the park outing.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

The city tourism association introduces udon as a regional meal example. Check wheat noodles and actual broth, toppings and allergens with vendors. Recipes vary; no particular shop, current menu or price is guaranteed.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

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.
