Hi, I’m Tabi!

Explore a hot-spring district and a hilltop shrine in Ishikawa, Fukushima. Check your destination carefully: this town is distinct from Ishikawa Prefecture.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Bobata Motoyu building exterior in August 201801

A first-visit stop

Bobata Onsen

母畑温泉

A mountain hot-spring district to explore at street level. The photograph records the Bobata Motoyu building in August 2018. It does not establish current operation or day-bathing access; contact your chosen inn directly.

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

02

A first-visit stop

Iwatsutsukowake Shrine

石都々古和気神社

Official tourism guidance highlights the approach to this hilltop shrine and guardian lions by sculptor Wahei Kobayashi. Allow for steps and slopes, and respect private property and worship areas.

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

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Look for Karinto Manju from Ishikawa-founded Okashi no Sakai. The maker describes smooth red-bean filling wrapped in a brown-sugar-flavoured dough and fried. Check shop locations and current availability.

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.
