A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
羽後町
Explore Ugo’s local culture at Nishimonai’s history museum and a historic house in Tashiro. Plan transport between the districts and your return journey in advance. The photograph shows the museum exterior in October 2019, not the summer Bon dance or current displays.
This guide covers places within Ugo, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
01A first-visit stop
羽後町歴史民俗資料館
The museum explores Ugo’s history, folklore and natural setting. The photograph is an October 2019 exterior view, not an image of indoor exhibits or current temporary exhibitions. Check Monday and Tuesday closures and holiday substitutions, and distinguish this museum from the summer dance venue.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
A first-visit stop

This timber residence in Tashiro connects a main house with a tall, white-walled storehouse. Town guidance lists viewing on Saturdays and Sundays from April through November, with winter closure from December to March. Do not assume weekday indoor access; confirm current opening and road conditions.

02 · A LITTLE BITE
Nishimonai soba is a local food tradition, including hiyagake noodles served with cold broth. The tourism association’s guide shows differences in noodles, broth and ingredients between shops. Check opening days and availability, and ask about ingredients before ordering if you have a buckwheat allergy.
