Most Beautiful Places In Tohoku Region [1-6]

1Mototakifukuryusui

A Fantastic Waterfall Surrounded By Mossy Stones

You cannot enter around Moto Taki Fall itself, you can enjoy the fantastic atmosphere in its subsoil waterfall.

2Zao

Ice Monsters! Snow Trees Covered With Ice & Snow

These fir trees covered with snow and ice have so strange shapes that they're called 'Ice Monster'! On every around February, you can enjoy snow trees, skiing and walking at the top of the mountains in Zao, Yamagata Pref.◎Access: take bus from Yamagata Station to Zao Onsen Hot Spring Town. Parking lot is available for cars. Take ropeway from Zao Onsen, and you can see the snow trees from the mountain top. By the way, humid coldness is unbearable, you must make doubly sure for winter clothes!

3Tadami Line

Beautiful Local Railway! Tadami Line In Winter

JR Tadami Line is most beautiful in winter! It snows a lot in January and February every year. So, you should travel in Aizu, Fukushima Prefecture, to see this Tadami Line!◎The train service of Tadami Line becomes winter schedule from January and the service decreases! So you need to wait longer until the train comes than usual. And, to see and take pictures of the snowscape means just cold. You have to prepare winter clothes such as down jacket and snow boots!

4Tsutanuma Lake

Tsutanuma Lake In Autumn Colors That Changes Into Scarlet By The Sun Light

At Tsutanuma Lake in autumn, the mountain changes its color in a flash when the light of the morning sun comes, and it reflects on the quiet water surface. Breathtakingly beautiful scenery! And it's Aomori's proud water mirror. I really want you to see this gorgeous scenery in a cool air of autumn...

5Odakamori Observatory

Panoramic View of Matsushima, One of the Magnificent Landscapes in Japan, From the Mt. Otakamori

I recommend the place called Shidaikan Soukan as a scenic spot. When you go there, you have to walk mountain trails for approximately 20 minutes. But the great view is worth visiting. If you see it, your tiredness disappears soon.

6Kitayamazaki Cliff

Dynamic & Rough Scenery Expanding As Fa As You See

Because of the erosion by rough waves, this wonderful scenery was formed as far as you see. The beauty of the sea shore is ranked as the highest special A! Among the many great views in Sanriku Fukko Reconstruction National Park, this Kitayamazaki Cliff is the most famous one, so it's worth visiting.◎Access: car is the most convenient. Or, form Tanohata Station of Sanriku Railway to Kitayamazaki Cliff, the tourist taxi is available. When you arrive, don’t forget to make the reservation for the taxi to return!
