Hi, I’m Tabi!

Visit a hilltop park and the exterior of a Confucian temple in Kōhoku’s Shiraki district. This is Kōhoku Town in Saga, distinct from the Kohoku area of Shiga. Check walking access separately from reserved facilities.

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