About this event
As the 3rd installment in the walking event series "Walking Event to Experience the History and Nature of Asuka from the Ground Up," a walking event titled "Miyako - The Appearance of the Ancient Capital" will be held. This event is part of a 4-part series project organized by "Hillside Asuka," located in Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture. While wearing "Tabi-suru Tabi(R) ASUKA TABI" (traveling split-toe footwear), participants will imagine the appearance of the ancient capital as envisioned by people around 1,300 years ago, and experience the history and nature of Asuka. In the event, while listening to explanations from a guide, participants will visit historical spots in Asuka and be given an opportunity to discover the area's charms from a new perspective. It will be a day to experience the charm of Asuka with all five senses through walking and local food. The series visits Asuka under different themes—"Stone," "Color," "Capital," and "Sky"—and is structured so that participating in all four sessions allows for a deep understanding of Asuka's multifaceted appeal. The 3rd session has the theme of imagining the appearance of the ancient capital, providing participants with an experience that stirs ancient romance.
