Ancient post-towns, majestic castles, mysterious shrines and splendid temples.

The charm of visiting historical sites in Nagano is their harmony with nature: Matsumoto Castle in front of the Japanese Alps. Togakushi Shrine hidden in the shadow of Mt. Togakushi. The post-towns of the Nakasendo nestled in the narrow Kiso Valley. Enjoy the traditional architecture, the rich history and the surrounding natural scenery while learning more about Nagano and Japan.
