At Nihondaira hill, we will take a gondola to Mt. Kuno to visit Kunozan Toshogu Shrine, the first shrine where the primary Edo Shognate, Tokugawa Ieyasu, was enshrined. Then we will walk down 1159 steps toward route 150, which is called “Strawberry line!” Walk on the coastline for 30 minutes to a strawberry farm to munch on strawberries as much as you want.
