Magome-juku – A Time Traveler’s Gateway
Start your journey in Magome-juku, a beautifully preserved post town once bustling with merchants and warriors.
Stroll cobbled paths past traditional wooden inns and spinning waterwheels, and feel history beneath your feet. Breathe in the scent of grilled mochi, hear the creak of old floorboards, and look out across the rolling Kiso Valley—just as Edo-period travelers once did.

Juri – Taste the Soul of the Mountains
Pause for lunch at Juri, a beloved local eatery in Magome.
Here, savor kurikomameshi, a chestnut rice dish praised since the 1800s. With every bite, you taste tradition. Dine like a traveling poet or a weary samurai, surrounded by the rustic charm of an old mountain village.

Sip hot tea, rest your feet, and imagine the stories shared here by travelers centuries ago. The atmosphere is still, serene, and steeped in quiet dignity.

Along the historic Nakasendo Trail, these twin waterfalls stand as a symbol of balance and harmony. Their contrasting flows embody the forces of nature and have long inspired travelers—including the legendary samurai Miyamoto Musashi.
