Mt. Oyama Half day tour at Isehara
Joined 2024
Just 1 hour train ride will bring you from modern urban sight to local cozy atomosphere. Mt. Oyama was well-known tourist spot in the history because of the symbol of sacred place and rich nature. Oyama dera temple and Afuri Shrine are the highlight of the tour and let you feel the history of the syncretism of Shinto and Buddhism. If you want to go to local restaurants, I will suggest some good places around Isehara station.

“OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE !!!”
Ryoko set up a fully customized historical tour in Chiba for me, including the National Museum of Japanese History, which has very few displays in English. She was well prepared, we had some great conversation, and it was a delight to spend the afternoon being guided by her. I would highly recommended her to anyone looking for a top-tier day tour guide in Japan.
