A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
鶴岡市
Tsuruoka in Yamagata’s Shonai region combines castle-town history and local food. Start around the central museum and park district.
This guide covers places within Tsuruoka, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

鶴岡公園
A park around the former Tsurugaoka Castle’s moat and trees. Relax on public paths and check entry separately for cultural facilities. Cherry blossoms are a spring sight, not a year-round promise.
