A Cultural Walk in the Shape of “Mitaka”✨
GPS Art of the place name “Mitaka (三鷹)” in Mitaka City, Tokyo.
This GPS art course traces the characters “三鷹” (“Mitaka”) over approximately 23 kilometers, weaving through areas between Musashi-Sakai Station and Mitaka City Hall, nestled between the JR Chuo Line and Higashi-Hachijo Avenue. Along the way, you’ll encounter the serene flow of the Tamagawa Josui Canal, a historic waterway dating back to the Edo period, and landscapes once cherished by Japan’s great literary figures. This course offers more than just a physical journey—it’s a walk through Mitaka’s cultural richness and quiet elegance, inviting you to experience the city’s refined charm with all your senses.
