Be a time traveler...

Yamaguchi Prefecture is rich in beautiful old maps created by the Choshu clan's cartographers and others.
Looking at these old maps and walking around castle towns and post towns with a local guide, you can see the streets and townscapes of bygone days and the way of life of people beyond time. With an old map in hand, come and visit an Edo Period town.
