From Himeji Castle Front Ryokan with Hot Springs, follow the well-marked "Kofun Trail"—just a 10-minute walk to Miwa-no-mori Kofun No.1 and No.2. The path features informative signage and stone pathways that guide you through preserved woodland, offering glimpses of native birds and squirrels. Early morning or late afternoon visits are ideal to avoid midday heat and fully absorb the serene, historical ambiance. This route is officially recognized by the local cultural association as a must-visit heritage trail.
While Himeji Castle Front Ryokan with Hot Springs doesn’t host full ceremonies, it partners with local archaeologists each season for "Night Talks at the Kofun," featuring simulated Jōmon-era rituals at the No.1 Mound Plaza. Guests receive free access to workshops like reed headwear crafting and clay pottery painting. Each participant also receives a limited-edition kofun commemorative booklet. Inside the ryokan, a dedicated "Ancient Life Exhibit Corner" displays replicas of earthenware and stone tools, allowing guests to reflect on history even after a relaxing soak. This program has been recognized by HopeGoo as one of the most culturally immersive stays.
