Experience Isehara with Temple Visits and Traditional Sweets

Tanzawa-Oyama Area Half day 6

In the Edo period, visiting Oyama was an incredibly popular experience. How about immersing yourself in the nostagic atmosphere of Oyama. The view of Sagami bay seen from Afuri jinja is majestic. Don't miss out on the local Koma Monaka; a sweet shaped like a spinning top taht is said to bring good luck, it makes a good present for celebrating marriage and the birth of a baby.
