Hi, I’m Tabi!

Visit Nangū Taisha and the Takenaka family’s former administrative residence in Tarui. Check permitted visitor areas and plan travel between the two sites.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

A first-visit stop

Nangū Taisha

南宮大社

This shrine in Miyashiro is associated with the metal industries. The April 2014 photograph shows a stone marker bearing the shrine’s name, rather than the main sanctuary. Follow current signs and respect permitted worship areas.

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

A first-visit stop

Takenaka Family Jinya Ruins

竹中氏陣屋跡

Built by Takenaka Shigekado, son of Shigeharu, this former administrative residence retains a tower gate, moat and stone walls. The September 2005 photo shows the gate exterior. View it from currently permitted outside areas, without entering school grounds or closed sections.

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

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Guruman Vital’s Tarui main branch in Miyashiro offers a bakery, sweets and café options. This is a local stop rather than a claim of traditional regional cuisine. Check each outlet’s opening arrangements, daily menu and ingredients.

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.
