Yesterday, I was lucky to have the day off with such a nice weather, so I decided to get out a bit of the city and explore the countryside nearby.
The Nakasendo Hiking trail is a great one day trip from Nagoya, as it offers a completely different atmosphere. Welcome to the wild and old Japan!
Magome and Tsumago are two old post towns where one can admire scenery from the past century. The hiking trail linking the two towns is about 8km long, very nice and quite easy. Highly recommended! Sad I didn't encounter a bear though...
