Hi, I’m Tabi!

Taiwa is a town in Miyagi. Explore nature at Nanatsumori Lakeside Park or local culture at Yoshioka Hachiman Shrine. The hero photograph shows the mountains from Yoshioka, rather than park facilities. Choose one stop and check current access and return services.

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

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Official town guidance features Shimada-ame candy associated with the shrine’s traditional festival. Check current sales dates, products and ingredients rather than assuming festival candy is sold year-round. Its matchmaking legend is a tradition, not a promise of results.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

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 entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
