Often overshadowed by Japan’s larger cities, Himeji is a hidden gem packed with cultural treasures. At its heart stands Himeji Castle—Japan’s largest surviving feudal castle and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. But the city offers more than just iconic architecture. This walking tour explores beautiful temples, tranquil gardens, and centuries-old traditions. You’ll also enjoy a hands-on aizome (indigo dyeing) workshop where you can make a scarf or bag to take home, and stop for lunch to try local Himeji specialties.
