A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
東吉野村
Higashiyoshino is a village in Nara’s Yoshino District. Explore traditions around water at Niukawakami Shrine Nakasha and river scenery at Yumebuchi. Distinguish the village from Yoshino Town and this shrine from other Niukawakami shrines in Kawakami. Check mountain-area access and return transport first.
This guide covers places within Higashiyoshino, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
