About Magome

Magome/ Tsumago is a station town of Nakasendo that connects Kyoto and Edo, and it is like a beautiful town that still looks like the station town in Edo era. The approximately 9 km-long street connecting these two station towns is very well preserved. You can feel and experience the history, nature and forest bathing with the historical townscape and old stone-paved streets of the Edo era, beautiful views of Mount Ena, and rustic rural landscapes like a traveler in those days.
