Fukushima

Location: Fukushima is situated in the northeastern part of Honshu in the Tohoku region.



Look out for: Hot springs, peaches and apples. Beautiful landscapes. Bandai-Asahi National Park with Mt. Bandai, lakes and forests. Urabandai for colourful ponds. 

Aizuwakamatsu is known for its samurai history and  Tsuruga Castle. 


Food to try: Kitakata ramen, peaches in summer, Iwaki coast seafood, enban gyoza; pan friend dumplings arranged in a circular shape. For sweets, don't miss Mamador,small cakes filled with white bean paste.  Must try some of the local high quality sake on offer too! 





Tips: Renting a car will be more convenient, especially for reaching more remote areas. Winters can be cold with heavy snowfall in some areas. Plan well ahead.
