About This Tour
This value-packed trip with a government-licensed and experienced English Speaking tour guide is a fantastic and efficient way to explore Hiraizumi area! Nestled in the mountains of southern Iwate is Hiraizumi, an ancient city that once rivaled Kyoto for its beauty and elegant surroundings. This was the capital of the Northern Fujiwara lands, an independent country that briefly flowered in the late 1100s. Today, you can see the remnants of that once-beautiful city while enjoying the gorges and other scenic beauty of southern Iwate. Let us know what you would like to experience and we will customize a four-hour tour that's best for you!
