Hi, I’m Tabi!

In Tsu, Mie, choose a castle-site garden, shrine or museum for a first visit. Plan transport and your return rather than combining all three in a short walk.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Three places to begin

Three places with different atmospheres. Start with the one that appeals to you instead of visiting them all.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Start at the castle-site entrance and follow marked moat-side and garden paths. Check your return bus, planning separate trips to the shrine and museum.

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 current entry rules, opening information and return transport.
  • Choose an outing suited to steps, slopes and weather.
  • Respect worship spaces and photography rules; check food ingredients at the shop.
