Hi, I’m Tabi!

Former Nangō Town merged with Nichinan and Kitagō on 30 March 2009 to form present-day Nichinan City. This guide covers the coastal former town, distinct from Nango in Misato. The opening photograph shows Michi-no-Eki Nangō in 2008.

This guide covers former coastal Nangō Town within Nichinan, not Nango in Misato or all of present-day Nichinan.
