Hi, I’m Tabi!

Visit a local-products center and a park beneath white limestone cliffs in this mountain village. Plan mountain-road travel and your return journey first, and obey waterside restrictions.

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