The Battles of Kawanakajima were a series of conflicts during Japan’s Sengoku period between Takeda Shingen of Kai Province and Uesugi Kenshin of Echigo Province, fought from 1553 to 1564 over control of the Kawanakajima plain. Ultimately, the battles were inconclusive, and neither Shingen nor Kenshin was able to establish control over the region. The Battles of Kawanakajima have become one of the most celebrated stories in Japanese military history, symbolizing chivalry and heroism, and have been depicted in epic literature, paintings, woodblock prints, and films. Today, Fuefuki City honors Shingen’s legacy with an annual festival featuring samurai parades with armored warriors, drum performances, and reenactments of scenes from the Battles of Kawanakajima.

Would you like to meet a samurai? See a ninja in action? Or learn about the mysterious Oiran? Centuries ago, all three walked the streets of Edo—the city we now call Tokyo.

This theme park faithfully recreates the customs, culture, and society of Japan’s Edo Period (1603–1867). More than a museum, Nikko Edo Village immerses visitors in the daily life of Edo townsfolk, transforming you from a spectator into an active participant in history.
