Hi, I’m Tabi!

Taishi is a town in Hyogo’s Ibo district, distinct from Taishi in Osaka. Begin with temple architecture or an old spring story. The town history museum reports a renovation closure, so do not plan an exhibition visit there.

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

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Town guidance introduces Matsuo bamboo shoots as a specialty, including canned products. Check actual origin, ingredients, storage and availability; no shop, current stock 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.
