Inside Japan’s Hidden Valley | A 19th-Century Tunnel & Old Post Town | Shizuoka
A quiet walk through Shizuoka — from an Edo-period post town to a hidden valley village frozen in time.
We wandered through Okabe-juku along the old Tokaido highway, walked a Meiji-era brick tunnel built in 1887, explored the tucked-away hamlet of Utsu no Tani, followed the ancient Tsuta no Hosomichi path mentioned in The Tales of Ise, and tried traditional bamboo craft at Sunpu Takumijuku.
No narration. No BGM. Just the sounds of Japan.
