Explore the town where samurai once lived with ease by e-bike
Come and explore Hagi Castle Town, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site “Sites of Japan’s Meiji Industrial Revolution: Iron and Steel, Shipbuilding and Coal Mining.” Ride through streets lined with traditional white earthen walls, visit former samurai residences, and discover other places that tell the story of Hagi’s castle town. Along the way, a local guide will introduce you to Hagi’s history, culture, and the lives of the people who have called this town home.
Thanks to the e-bike’s electric assistance, you can enjoy the tour comfortably even if you’re not used to physical activity. You’ll also be able to explore a much wider area of the castle town than you could on foot.
Don’t miss this special opportunity to experience authentic Japan!
