Tsumago-juku is a beautifully preserved post town along Japan’s historic Nakasendo Trail. Nestled in the mountains of Nagano, it feels like walking into the Edo period, with wooden inns, quiet streets, and no overhead wires. The town is a peaceful starting point for a scenic hike to Magome, offering forest paths, waterfalls, and small shrines along the way. It’s a perfect place for those who want to slow down, enjoy nature, and experience the charm of old Japan.
