Shobara City is located in the northeastern part of Hiroshima Prefecture and is a city where you can encounter the "original landscape of Japan" surrounded by rich mountains. At the Bihoku Hillside State Park, one of the largest in Japan, you can enjoy seasonal flowers and grand winter illuminations on its vast grounds. It is also packed with dynamic nature spots such as the legends of Mt. Hiba and the beautiful Taishakukyo Gorge, which boasts canyon beauty. Accommodation facilities that have renovated old folk houses are also substantial, and the "healing satoyama experience" spent gazing at the starry sky away from the hustle and bustle of the city is highly rated by international tourists. It is the perfect area for travelers who want to experience a peaceful Japan where traditional living and nature coexist.
