Experience a journey through time in the Edo-style streets of Sawara

🏮Step into the Edo era in the charming streets of Sawara Located in Katori City, Chiba Prefecture, Sawara is a historic town often referred to as "Little Edo of Hokuso." I visited Sawara in spring and felt as if I had traveled back to the Edo period while exploring the stately wooden buildings lining the Ono River and the former residence of Tadataka Ino. Along the river, you'll find renowned eel restaurants and quaint cafes housed in old-style homes, making it a delightful spot for food lovers. The seasonal "Sawara Grand Festival" features magnificent floats parading through the town, and at night, the lantern lights create a magical atmosphere. Whether you're traveling solo or as a couple, this is sure to be a memorable trip. 🚃 Access: About a 10-minute walk from JR Narita Line "Sawara Station." 🚗 By car: Approximately 15 minutes from the "Sawara-Katori IC" on the Higashi-Kanto Expressway. Free parking is available nearby.
