There are many features to enjoy a walk around the town that is unique to Yokosuka Town. Please enjoy a journey through culture and history with this app!

・"Town Planning Tour"
Yokosuka Town began when the second lord of the Owari Domain, Tokugawa Mitsutomo, built the "Yokosuka Palace" and this area came to be known as "Machikata". The current town planning inherits the town planning of the past, when it flourished as the political, economic, and cultural center of the Chita region. We have set up 11 spots so that you can experience the history of the town on site. Scan the markers at the spots with the app and enjoy the stories hidden in those places.

・"Festival Library"
Dashi floats first appeared in the Owari Yokosuka Festival in the late Edo period. The five remaining floats have been carefully passed down by many people since their construction. Scan the markers on the wall explanatory panel at the Yokosuka Cultural Information Corner of the Creative Forest Communication Center with the app. You can learn detailed information about the Owari Yokosuka Festival and the enthusiasm of the people of Yokosuka Town for the festival.

・"A Poem in Yokosuka"
Why not try writing a poem about "this moment" in Yokosuka Town, feeling like the court poet Saka Masaomi? You can write about your feelings in "5-7-5-7-7", or you can write about the scenery in "5-7-5", or you can express your current feelings in a short sentence. The content you post will be displayed on the wall screen at the Yokosuka Cultural Information Corner. Please give it a try!
