A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
東秩父村
Explore paper culture at Washi no Sato and Joren-ji in Mido. Papermaking activities and temple visits have different arrangements. Check activity bookings, reception hours and permitted temple areas before visiting.
This guide covers places within Higashichichibu, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
01A first-visit stop
和紙の里ひがしちちぶ
A roadside visitor complex in Mido with paper-culture activities and local produce shops. The photograph shows the buildings from the car park, not the inside of a papermaking workshop. Check each facility’s closures, bookings and pedestrian routes, and keep clear of vehicle entrances.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
A first-visit stop
浄蓮寺
A temple in Mido, introduced by the prefecture as a family temple of the Ueda clan. Distinguish traditions from documented cultural-property information. Respect worship and cemetery users, and ask separately about indoor or artifact visits.
