Tsumago Holidays

Tsumago is a well-preserved post town along the Nakasendo Trail in Nagano Prefecture, offering a look at Edo-period Japan. The town maintains its historical feel with traditional wooden buildings, no visible power lines, and no modern signage. Visitors can explore former samurai inns like Tsumago Honjin and Wakihonjin, walk the Tsumago to Magome Trail, an 8-kilometer route through forests and villages, or stay in a ryokan for a traditional experience. Small museums provide insight into the area’s history, and local shops sell handcrafted goods. Tsumago is ideal for history enthusiasts, hikers, and those looking to experience rural Japan.
