① Use your Smartphone to find and visit the territories related to the Shinsengumi Clan
We will hold a digital “stamp-collection” competition related to visiting places related to Shinsengumi Clan throughout Kyoto city. This time, with the aim of promoting “non-contact tours," we have developed a new service that allows our customers to enjoy touring (using avatars), including a function that automatically obtains “completion stamps” once a certain Shinsengumi Clan related spot is visited.
Once the final goal (the Studio Park) is reached, all the participants will receive an original handkerchief with written on it a certificate of military enrollment as a participation gift.
