Hi, I’m Tabi!

Visit Taga Taisha, affectionately called Otagasan, and a shrine associated with the former Binmanji temple in Taga, Shiga. Check festivals and special openings separately from ordinary access.

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