A Relaxing Stroll in Obama City, Fukui 🐚✨

#cityplaybook Tucked along the Sea of Japan, Obama City in Fukui Prefecture offers a peaceful atmosphere steeped in history and nature. Once an important port town on the ancient trade route connecting Japan to China and Korea, today it’s known for its calm beaches, atmospheric shrines, and well-preserved streets that whisper stories of the past. 🌊 Ningyo-no-Hama (Mermaid Beach) Take in the sea breeze along this quiet stretch of coast — the perfect place for a peaceful seaside stroll. ⛩️ Obama Shrine & Obama Hachimangu These two serene shrines are rich in local history and offer a glimpse into the spiritual heart of the city. A walk through their peaceful grounds is grounding and calming. Why I recommend this area: ・A charming coastal town filled with calm and nostalgia ・Perfect for slow travel and discovering hidden local gems 📍Obama City, Fukui #obamacity #fukuitrip #japancoastline #slowtraveljapan #cityplaybook #shrinestroll #hiddenjapan
