This tour is a five-part walking tour that explores cultural properties in Minato Ward with a focus on the Edo period.
Taking the question “Why was Ieyasu able to establish 260 years of peace?” as our starting point, we’ll deepen our understanding as we visit cultural properties throughout Minato Ward.
This is an experiential historical walking tour that allows you to experience the ideas and institutions of the Edo period firsthand as you stroll through the city.
Why not relive the “story of the city” created by the people of the Edo period through Minato Ward’s cultural properties?
