蔵の町並み
Storehouses and gates recall merchants who traded safflower and indigo. The preserved district is also a place where people live and work. View exteriors from public streets and check each building’s rules for interior visits and photography.
Getting there Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
This roadside station introduces local produce and broad-bean products. It is separate from the storehouse streets, so plan transport and your return journey. Check each shop’s opening and menu and watch for vehicles in the car park.
