Hi, I’m Tabi!

Sakae in Chiba offers a museum recreating earlier daily life and the history of an old temple. Boso-no-Mura’s streets are reconstructed exhibits, rather than a surviving historic town center. Choose one stop and check visiting arrangements and return transport.

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