We start with the castle of Koriyama, feudal military vestige of the city. We then walk around the city. Traditional houses and small streams welcome us and offer us a glimpse of the Edo period (16th-19th century).
We can have an indigo dyeing experience in Hakomotakan Konya, ancestral know-how. We can then try our luck at goldfish fishing, a traditional Japanese summer activity, in Kochikuya.
