2025 Fukushima Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#wecreate #japan Ouchi-juku was developed as a post town on the Shimotsuke Highway connecting Aizuwakamatsu castle town and Imaichi-juku during the Edo period. Since the Meiji era, railroads and national highways have largely been detoured, so the scenery of the olden days still remains, and people live their lives unchanged throughout the four seasons. *Currently, each house runs a restaurant, a guest house, a souvenir shop, a cafe, etc. Please contact each store directly for business hours.#japan

Hanamiyama Park Address: 17 Torihara, Fukushima, Fukushima Prefecture I was traveling with my mother and her colleagues on this trip, and of course I had to take care of their needs, so I found this Hanamiyama Park in Fukushima and took them for a walk to see the flowers and take pictures. From JR Fukushima Station, change to bus No. 8 to Hanamiyama and get off, which is about ten minutes away, which is very convenient. Although the time of visit is mid-May, can not catch the tail of the cherry blossom season, but it does not matter, because in addition to cherry blossoms, Hanamiyama will basically always bloom in clusters of flowers all year round, such as plum blossoms, Licorices, hydrangeas, heavenly lilies, and colorful azaleas. In addition, some non-native trees and plants are sporadically planted throughout the park. You can get the intelligence information of the park and the map in the case first. There are quite a few forks in Hanamiyama. If you walk really carefully and slowly, you can really spend most of the day. #Japan Attractions #Fukushima Attractions #Flower Viewing Places #Hanamiyama Park

Unplan trip to Hanamomo-no-Sato!! You all know , I don’t like crowded place and always try to look out for peaceful and remote places doesn’t matter how far I need to work 😆😆!! Then I came to know this little secret place. Is not so straightforward journey like other places . I need to take train from Sendai to Fukushima by JR line ( covered by JR pass ) , then change to local private line called Iizaka railway- 370 ¥ one way (cute and very old local private train line - solely that small region) and took until terminal and walk about 20 mins to the place . But , they have small map to the place and along the road have signage to guide you the direction . When you are near, there were some volunteers guiding along the traffic. It was really local small place to enjoy late flowers . It will be very beautiful in few days time , even now was beautiful to me . Some colourful cherry plus peach flowers combined and the mountains background make me paradise!! And you don’t need to pay anything . They sell some local delicacies and I enjoy some tea and walk around , sat down and enjoy flowers and walked back to the station. It took me half day. And also a good place to have picnic with family or friends.See you all on the other side of the world 🌎🤭!! #Japn #naturelover #solotravel

Iwaya Kannon is a temple rebuilt by Terumoto Mori. The hall is an important cultural property designated by the state. In the past, it was known as a place to pray for the safety of navigation, and now it is a place to pray for childbirth and safe delivery. It also appears in Naoya Shiga's work 'Dark Night Road'. It is located on the coast of the city and the view to and from the temple is amazing. You can also feel the waves of the sea from the temple. It could be peaceful.

Azuma Sports Park in Fukushima Prefecture is a beautiful place during the fall when the leaves change color. The leaves change into beautiful shades of red, orange, and yellow, giving the park a breathtaking atmosphere. Enjoy taking pictures. The temperature can drop during October to early November, so dress appropriately. #AutumnTravel #fukushima #japan #100TravelTips

There is a world outside of Japan. You can get there by car, and there's no need to climb a mountain. It's a place you should visit at least once in your life. The autumn leaves are beautiful at this time of year, and it's also known as Tengu's garden. The road will be closed for the winter in mid-November, so now is your last chance to go this year, and if you miss it, you won't be able to go again until around May. There are also hot springs nearby where you can soothe your tired body, so I recommend going there. Takayu Onsen in particular is known as a beauty bath and is definitely worth a dip in.

Great view and onsen. #onsen #fukushima

#japantrip #japan #fukushima Fukushima is a prefecture of deep contrasts, resilience, and natural beauty. While it is often associated with the 2011 earthquake and nuclear disaster, there is so much more to this region. It has made incredible strides in recovery, symbolizing the strength and spirit of its people. Beyond its history, Fukushima offers stunning landscapes, from the tranquil lakes of Urabandai to the picturesque Mount Azuma. The region is also rich in cultural heritage, with historic samurai towns like Aizu-Wakamatsu, known for its castle and traditional crafts. Fukushima’s hot springs (onsen) provide a peaceful escape, and its seasonal beauty is remarkable—especially during cherry blossom season and autumn, when the foliage transforms the countryside into a sea of color. In my view, Fukushima is a testament to renewal, blending its natural splendor, deep traditions, and a bright future. It's a place worth exploring for anyone interested in Japan's culture, landscapes, and the strength of its people.

When I saw Kamanuma, I also hiked Mt. Issaikyo to see the Witch's Eye (Goshiki-numa) 🥾 ~ ... If you take a 1-hour break at the top, you can come back in about 4 hours round trip!!! This is a steeper climb than Kamanuma, and there are more areas with poor footing such as gravel, so you must wear hiking shoes and equipment🙆♀️ *On the way, there was a person climbing in normal clothes (sneakers and normal clothes) that were not hiking clothes😂 I was scared to watch them slip... 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 ✔️It is recommended to go together with Kamanuma⛰️ 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 Kamanuma is also nearby, so it is recommended to go together with Kamanuma🙆♀️ Even if you walk leisurely, it will take about 5 to 6 hours round trip, including a 1-hour break at Issaikyouzan, so if you are nearby, I think you can enjoy it as a day trip!!! If you are thinking of traveling to Fukushima, be sure to check out the witch's eyes from Issaikyouzan~🫶 ---- 📍 Access 🚗 Car Fukushima Station - Jododaira, about 1 hour 👣Jododaira - Mt.

Peach parfaits cost 800 yen each. There's a line, but it's worth it! Highly recommended.

I parked my car at Jododaira on the Bandai-Azuma Skyline and went hiking in Kamanuma in Fukushima Prefecture. 🥾 ~~~~~~~~ 🌱What is Kamanuma? ~~~~~~~~ It is a swamp in Bandai-Asahi National Park, and is called "Kamanuma" because its shape resembles a sickle! It is located at an altitude of 1,770m, so to get to Kamanuma, you have to climb a slightly steep slope, climb some large rocks, and do some light mountain climbing. 🙆♀️ When going to Kamanuma, you need to wear mountain climbing clothes and shoes! 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 ⛰️Time required 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 After about an hour of hiking (some flat roads) from Jododaira, where we parked the car, to Kamanuma, we arrived!!! It took about an hour for me, a beginner and with little stamina, so if you are used to hiking, you may be able to arrive even sooner🙆♀️ 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 ✔️Recommended points 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 There are benches for resting and spaces where you can lay out a picnic sheet around Kamanuma, so it is recommended to eat lunch and enjoy coffee☕️ ※However, depending on the season, there are a lot of small insects🥲, so be careful⚠️ This is a recommended place for those who want to enjoy light hiking and nature, so please go!!! ---- 📍Access 🚗By car Fukushima Station - Jododaira, about 1 hour 👣Jododaira - Kamanuma Climbing takes about 1 hour 🚗 Jododaira Parking Lot Cars 500 yen Motorcycles 200 yen ⛰️Camping period Winter closure of Bandai-Azuma Skyline (mid-November to early April) ---- #Nature and spectacular views #Kamanuma #mountain climbing #hiking #Fukushima sightseeing

🚗 Spectacular Drive on the Azuma Bandai Skyline 🚗* Hello everyone! Today, I would like to introduce you to the spectacular drive course in Fukushima Prefecture, the Azuma Bandai Skyline 🌄. The Azuma Bandai Skyline is a mountain road with a total length of about 29 kilometers that connects Mt. Azuma to Mt. Bandai, and is a great driving spot where you can enjoy beautiful nature and seasonal scenery 🚙✨. Especially in autumn, the vivid red and yellow autumn leaves spread out, making you feel as if you are driving through a painting 🍁. The different scenery in each season is attractive, with fresh green leaves in spring, the contrast between blue sky and green in summer, and snowy scenery in winter ❄️🌿.

#cherryblossom2024 I had an exciting adventure during our vacation when I visited the lively city of Japan. The spring season transformed the surroundings into a paradise, and walking around Hanayashiki brought a sense of rejuvenation. The breathtaking landscapes in this serene sanctuary left us in awe, offering unforgettable moments that we will always cherish. Established in the year 1883, Hanayashiki has stood the test of time and continues to captivate visitors with its charm. Boasting approximately 20 rides, the park leans more towards evoking nostalgia rather than providing heart-pounding thrills – featuring iconic attractions such as Japan's oldest steel-track rollercoaster and a spine-chilling haunted house. While some rides have undergone enhancements throughout the years, the park's compact size limits the expansion of its offerings. The ambiance at Hanayashiki exudes a palpable sense of nostalgia, transporting guests back to a bygone era. Amidst the aging structures, there is an underlying feeling of exuberant joy hideaway has left an indelible mark on my consciousness. The joy of revisiting and savoring every second in this extraordinary haven is truly unparalleled.#trip

#cherryblossom2024 The works of people, the gifts of nature Every spring, thousands of tourists come to Hanamiyama Park to see the amazing fruits of the labors of the Abe family, who opened their farmlands to the general public in 1959. Now visitors can admire the magical sakura and other flowering plants here. How to get there The park is a 15-minute bus ride from Fukushima Station. During the cherry blossom season, Tohoku Shinkasen from Tokyo will take you to Fukushima Station. After a 15-minute bus ride, you will need to walk a little. History In the 1920s, the Abe family began to grow flowers for sale on the mountain slopes around the farm, and in 1959 allowed people to visit these places, setting up the magnificent Hanamiyama Park or "Flower Mountain". Since that time, three generations of the Abe family have continued to take care of the land and rejoice in the success of their plan. A sea of flowers Sakura, plum, and hydrangeas grow here… There are magnificent exhibitions of lilies and azaleas. In addition, ornamental trees and plants that are atypical for the nature of Japan have been planted. Note to visitors Information about walking trails and access for wheelchair users can be found at the stands.
