Hi, I’m Tabi!

Discover Himi from the waterfront of Toyama Bay and its hills. Start around Banya-gai’s harbor scenery, checking separate transport and walking conditions for Asahiyama Park.

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

01 · EXPLORE
