Hi, I’m Tabi!

Uda in Nara offers Ouda’s historic townscape and seasonal scenery. Check buses from Kintetsu Haibara Station toward Ouda and your return. Prepare the approaches to the streets and cherry tree separately.

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

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try Ouda bus stop → public streets of Matsuyama. Follow residential-access rules and plan the cherry tree separately to suit season, transport and protection areas.

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.
