Fukushima City Kanko-Bussan Association

Why Choose Our Destination?

Fukushima Prefecture is the gateway to the Tohoku district. The prefectural capital is Fukushima City with a population of around 294,000. Fukushima abounds with historical and natural sites such as the Bandai-Asahi national park and a volcanic chain running under Mount Azuma. The Bandai-Azuma Mountains have Iizaka, Takayu and Tsuchiyu hot spas, a few of the greatest hot spring areas in Japan. We also have a well known Hanami-Yama park, Azuma Skyline highway and huge fruit orchards nearby. A fine view with autumn leaves can be seen while driving on the Skyline in fall, and luscious fruits can be tasted throughout the year in Fukushima, which is known as the "Fruits Kingdom". Please come to Fukushima for the beautiful nature, friendly people and to experience time that flows in a relaxed manner.
