Hi, I’m Tabi!

Samukawa is a town in Kanagawa. Start with Miyayama’s shrine or the waterworks exhibits. Check destination entrances and return trains from Miyayama or Samukawa stations on the JR Sagami Line. Distinguish this shrine from namesakes elsewhere.

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