Activity

Iwamura Castle Town is a local gem with well-preserved traditional streetscapes

The roughly 1.3-kilometer-long castle town preserves a historically and culturally rich streetscape, designated as an Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings. It’s lined with Edo-period (1603-1868) houses that reflect the town’s former prosperity.

Take a stroll through the town in a cute retro kimono! No need to bring anything!

Take photos while blending into the atmosphere of the castle town, and snack on some local specialties such as castella cakes and gohei-mochi rice cakes.

Enjoy sake tasting at the renowned Iwamura Brewery, which boasts over 230 years of history

After a detailed explanation of sake brewing and the brewery's history by the president, you'll enjoy a tasting of four of their prized sake varieties.
