About this event
This tour explores the charms of Noda City on a large bus accompanied by a local guide. Under the theme "Sekiyado: A Town of Rivers and History," the tour visits the Sekiyado district, which prospered during the Edo period as a castle town and a crucial hub for water transportation. Highlights include visiting sites associated with Kinjiro Sekine (the 13th Lifetime Meijin of shogi) and the memorial museum for Kantaro Suzuki (Prime Minister at the end of World War II), as well as touring the Chiba Prefectural Sekiyado Castle Museum and surrounding temples. Led by volunteers from the local guide group "Murasaki no Sato Noda Guide Club," participants can discover new aspects of Noda City. The total walking distance is scheduled to be approximately 4.1 kilometers.
