JR Fureai Walk, a 9.5 km walk event starting/finishing at JR Nagato City Station, will be held on Sunday, February 24, 2019.
This time, we will visit the Higashi Fukagawa Era district of Nagato City, where the Chikamatsu birth tradition of Chikamatsu Monzaemon, a joruri and kabuki playwright active during the Genroku period of the Edo period, has been handed down.
Please join us for a walk to rediscover the history of Chikamatsu, a place that has been passed down from generation to generation by the local people as "Chikamatsu no Sato".
