A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
旧湖北町域
Former Kohoku became part of Nagahama in the 2010 merger. This guide covers Odani Castle’s remains and history museum within the app’s original Kohoku area, rather than all northern Lake Biwa or present-day Nagahama.
This guide covers places within Kohoku area, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
01A first-visit stop
小谷城跡
The image shows the Senjojiki bailey’s grass and trees. This is a mountain castle site with surviving remains, not a standing keep. Allow for slopes and distinguish travel to the foothill information point from time spent hiking.
Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
A first-visit stop
小谷城戦国歴史資料館
This museum at the castle’s foot introduces the Azai family and Odani Castle. The grassy photograph above depicts the castle site, not the museum. Check current opening days, admission and onward travel separately.

02 · A LITTLE BITE
Funazushi is a Shiga regional food made by fermenting crucian carp with rice, not a dish exclusive to former Kohoku. Its aroma and acidity can be strong; try a small serving and check ingredients and availability.
