Kashihara: Strolling Through Kashihara Jingu Shrine and the Imai Town Streetscape
Spend a leisurely day in Kashihara, the birthplace of Japan, walking alongside grandparents. Pay respects at Kashihara Jingu Shrine, nestled in expansive woodland, then stroll along the beautiful gravel path to Emperor Jinmu's Mausoleum. View authentic excavated artifacts at the Nara Prefectural Kashihara Archaeological Institute Museum, then head to Imai Town in the afternoon, where Edo-period townscapes remain. Learn about the highlights at Kawarabuki before exploring the lanes, and as evening falls, conclude your day beneath the vast sky of Fujiwara Palace Ruins.
