Hi, I’m Tabi!
In Satsuma along the Sendai River, explore railway history and the shrine at Shibi. These stops are separated, so check driving routes or current bus services before combining them.
This guide covers places within Satsuma, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

A first-visit stop
Miyanojo Railway Memorial and Former Station Site
宮之城鉄道記念館・旧駅跡
Explore traces of the discontinued Miyanojo Line at its former station site. The photograph shows the outdoor area in 2012, not an operating railway station. Check opening days for the memorial’s interior and tourist information desk.
Getting there Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
Visit the shrine in the Shibi district, taking care not to confuse it with the similarly named shrine at Takaono. Shrine visits and nearby bathing facilities are separate; check each bath’s operating arrangements.
Getting there Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
Look for foods made with locally produced bamboo shoots. Fresh shoots and processed products have different seasons; do not assume freshly dug shoots are available in October. Check what shops currently carry.
