A historic post town on the Nakasendo Road with traditional kura-zukuri warehouses
About this spot
Nakatsugawa-juku flourished as one of the 69 post stations on the Nakasendo Road, and old merchant houses with distinctive kura-zukuri architecture still remain. Walking through streets lined with latticed doors and white-walled buildings evokes the feeling of being a traveler in the Edo period. Established confectionery shops dot the area, making this a leisurely walking path where you can savor the unique atmosphere of the region.
