Hi, I’m Tabi!

Discover another side of Aizu history at Isasumi Shrine and Mukaihaguroyama’s castle remains. These destinations are in Aizumisato, distinct from Aizuwakamatsu City.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Isasumi Shrine gate in April 202301

A first-visit stop

Isasumi Shrine

伊佐須美神社

A shrine reflecting Aizu’s religious and festival traditions. The building photographed in April 2023 is its gate, not the main sanctuary. Follow current construction, access and photography instructions.

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

A first-visit stop

Mukaihaguroyama castle remains

向羽黒山城跡

Mountain-castle remains associated with Ashina Moriuji. The February 2008 photograph is a distant view of the hills, not a current trail or a surviving castle tower. Ask the Hongo information centre about open sections and plan for slopes and weather.

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

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Look for pickled products made with local Takada ume. The town’s guide describes crisp pickles and a sweetened preparation. Distinguish the fresh-fruit season from processed-product availability and check ingredients and stock.

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.
