Kameyama, Mie, Japan: Seki Post Town in Tokaido road

 


In 2019, I have visited Magome and Tsumago towns in Nakasendō route. And Old Tōkaidō Road Ancient Cedar Avenue in Hakone, Kanagawa.  This 2024, I have visited Seki-juku in Tōkaidō road.

What is Tōkaidō road?
Roughly means "eastern sea route," connecting Kyoto (previous capital) Japan and Edo (modern-day Tokyo). [Reference]

Mie, Japan: Nipponia Hotel Iga Ueno Castle Town

 


Planning:  I'm torn between choosing between their building in Kanmuri or Kourai.  Kanmuri is less than 10 minutes walk from Uenoshi or Hirokoji station. It's where their lobby and restaurant is. Room 103 is enclosed without a window or garden view at the ground floor. But has windows on the 2F.

Mie, Japan: Things to do in Iga-Ueno


While planning for this trip in Mie, I have two options on where to experience ninja activities. One is Ninja Kingdom Ise in Futamicho Mitsu.  But I chose the Iga-ryu Ninja Museum in Uenomarunouchi due to its location which is on my way to Seki Post the next day.  And other reasons listed below are the things you can do in Iga-Ueno.
