This famous site is known for its stunning "cherry blossom tunnel" created by approximately 420 Somei Yoshino trees over a length of 2.2km. Having overcome the hardships following the disaster, the sight of these trees blooming beautifully once again touches many hearts as a symbol of regional revitalization and hope for the future. The corridor is illuminated during full bloom in spring, allowing visitors to walk through a dreamlike path of light. It is a place where you can feel the story of Japanese strength and rebirth through the resilient blossoms.

Soma Nomaoi (Wild Horse Chase)

Boasting a history of over 1,000 years and designated as a National Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property, this is a globally rare festival originating from military exercises. Hundreds of samurai on horseback, clad in armor and carrying ancestral banners, march through the streets and compete for flags in open fields, looking as if the warring states period has returned to the modern day. The pride and spirit of the samurai, combined with the dynamic movement of man and horse as one, is a breathtaking sight for international tourists seeking to experience true Bushido culture.

Ogawa Suwa Shrine
Fukushima

Ogawa Suwa Shrine

This shrine is famous for its majestic, giant weeping cherry tree, which is over 500 years old. Its branches droop so beautifully that they almost reach the ground, and at full bloom in spring, it creates a dreamlike vision of cascading pale pink flowers. Illuminated at night, the tree radiates a sacred aura that has quietly watched over the area's long history. In the mild climate of Iwaki, you can fully enjoy a landscape where traditional Japanese faith and the vitality of nature merge.
