Hi, I’m Tabi!

Visit Taikodani Inari Shrine and Tonomachi Street in Tsuwano. The shrine approach involves slopes and steps, so plan it separately from a level street walk. Both remain places of daily life and worship.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Courtyard of Taikodani Inari Shrine01

A first-visit stop

Taikodani Inari Shrine

太皷谷稲成神社

The photograph shows the shrine courtyard surrounded by vermilion buildings, not the full torii-lined approach. Allow for slopes and steps and respect worship and ceremony areas.

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

Walls and water channel on Tonomachi Street02

A first-visit stop

Tonomachi Street

殿町通り

The image shows white walls, a water channel and street trees. Watch the channel edge, traffic and residents’ access. A street walk is separate from entry to individual buildings.

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

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Genji-maki is a Tsuwano sweet with bean paste wrapped in a thin, castella-like layer. Flavors and selection vary by shop; check ingredients, including wheat and egg, and storage instructions before buying.

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 the walking route

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.
