A Slow & Charming Stroll in Inuyama

#cityplaybook

Inuyama is a small but fascinating city in Aichi Prefecture, perfect for a peaceful day trip filled with history, charm, and just a hint of cuteness.

Start your stroll at the photogenic Sanko Inari Shrine, famous for its rows of red torii gates and its adorable pink heart-shaped ema (votive plaques). It’s become a popular spot for good luck in love—snap a few pics while you’re there! 💕

Then make your way to Inuyama Castle, one of Japan’s oldest original castles. The climb up is worth it for the stunning view of the Kiso River from the top. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a historical postcard.

Why I recommend Inuyama for a stroll:
・A beautiful mix of tradition and modern photo spots
・Compact and walkable, great for slow travel lovers
