Hi, I’m Tabi!

This guide covers Mino City in Gifu. Begin with the udatsu townscape and washi light artworks, leaving Ogura Park’s hillside for another outing if preferred.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Three places to begin

Three places with different atmospheres. Start with the one that appeals to you instead of visiting them all.
