[2025 Kiso Town Attraction] Travel Guide for Yoshinakayakata (Updated Apr)

#QuintessaCampaign At the recommendation of the guide at Yoshinaka-kan, we strolled around the surrounding historical sites. It's pretty compact. First off, we went to Tomoe-buchi, where Tomoe Gozen is said to have swam! It's truly breathtakingly beautiful. The cries of the wild birds make you think you're in the middle of the Amazon, and they're mystical. The people around here have different skin tones because the water and air are different.

#QuintessaCampaign Right next to Yoshinaka Mansion is Tokuonji Temple, where the graves of Kiso Yoshinaka, Tomoe Gozen, and the Four Heavenly Kings are located. Yoshinaka ascended to Kyoto from the mountains of Kiso with his childhood friends, and rose to the rank of Shogun. Perhaps the reason he is loved forever by the people of his hometown is because he treasured the bonds he formed with his friends.

#QuintessaCampaign Yoshinakakan is located at Miyanokoshi Station, two stations from Kiso-Fukushima Station. There are many historical sites related to Yoshinaka and Tomoe Gozen in the surrounding area, and it serves as a tourist information center. The guide is enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and a beautiful woman like Tomoe Gozen, so it's definitely worth going!
