Takehara City is home to the "Little Kyoto of Aki," a district with preserved streets dating back to the Edo period, and Okunoshima Island, which has recently been gaining popularity among tourists as “Rabbit Island”. On this tour, you will be able to enjoy both areas with our private guide, who will explain the historical background of each area and help you with the logistics. Your first stop on the tour is Takehara, a city which flourished in the Edo period as a salt manufacturing town, followed by sake production later on. An area where Japanese houses stood in those days is still maintained as a historical preservation area. Next on the tour, Okunoshima is an uninhabited island where poison gas was made during the war and was not listed on maps of the time. It now attracts attention from both inside and outside Japan as an island where you can play with hundreds of wild rabbits.
