Hi, I’m Tabi!

Explore local history at Shichinohe Castle ruins and Tenno Shrine. Distinguish reconstructed structures from historic remains.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Reconstructed east gate at Shichinohe Castle ruins, 201201

A first-visit stop

Shichinohe Castle Ruins

七戸城跡

Explore the remains of the former castle. The photograph shows the reconstructed east gate in 2012, not an original gate or castle keep. Check guidance for excavations, maintenance and access restrictions.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02

A first-visit stop

Tenno Shrine

天王神社

This shrine has a long local religious tradition. Distinguish it from namesake shrines elsewhere and follow visitor rules. The place-name panel is decorative and does not promise seasonal flowers.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

The town’s official tourism site features horse-meat ramen. Check the shop’s current menu, reservations and availability, along with noodle and broth ingredients.

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 directions

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.
