Nihonmatsu Castle in Nihonmatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture. I went there around 4:30pm, but there was no one there. Or rather, it was pitch black. I was scared so I ran along the way, but there were quite a few mountain monkeys!! It was a pretty tough climb, and I thought it would have been hard to take the castle, but it seems they attacked from behind and it fell. #Outdoor

Fukushima Dake Onsen♨️ Adatara Inn Ogiya I've been wanting to go to this inn ever since I saw a video about the hot spring on Twitter!!! 🚄Tohoku Shinkansen Tokyo Station - Koriyama Station, about 80 minutes 🚃Tohoku Main Line Koriyama Station - Nihonmatsu Station, about 25 minutes 🚌Free shuttle bus from Nihonmatsu Station, about 20 minutes or 🚕Taxi from Nihonmatsu Station, about 20 minutes ✔️Recommended points ⚫︎Cloudy water full of hot spring minerals ⚫︎Depending on the plan, you can use the large bath exclusively ⚫︎Minimum explanation required at check-in! ※I'm glad they explained it in detail, but I was happy that the large bath was exclusively available immediately after checking in, so I was able to go into my room and take a bath right away! ⚫︎Free coffee and tea in the lobby🍵☕️ ⚫︎The food is delicious!

Nihonmatsu Shrine This shrine is located at 1-61 Honmachi, Nihonmatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture. The nearest station is JR East Tohoku Main Line Nihonmatsu Station, about a 5-minute walk away. There are a lot of mosquitoes in the summer, so insect repellent is a must. The annual lantern festival in October is famous, so I wanted to see it at least once. This year's annual festival will be shortened to two days, October 2nd and 3rd, and will be held on a smaller scale. #Fukushima #Summer trip

Nihonmatsu Station/Nihonmatsu City Tourist Information Center A JR East Tohoku Main Line station located in Honmachi 2-chome, Nihonmatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture. The current station building was built in 1976, and in 2002 it was selected as one of the 100 best stations in Tohoku. I got a manhole card and a nearby tourist information paper at the tourist information center to the right just after exiting the ticket gate. *On weekdays, this type of manhole card is distributed at a different location, the Fukushima Adatara Seiryu Center (2-96 Enokido, Nihonmatsu City). In front of the station was the statue of the Nihonmatsu Boy Corps soldier, "Kasumijo no Tachikaze." #Fukushima #StationBuilding #LocalCard #SummerShortTrip

After visiting the Nihonmatsu Castle Ruins, we were looking for a quick and reliable lunch stop—and Yoshinoya never disappoints. We pulled into the Fukuoka-440 Yui branch, and as expected, it was a smooth and fuss-free experience. Parking was super convenient, with spaces located right outside the shop—perfect for a quick stop when you’re on a road trip or just passing through. Inside, everything was straightforward. You simply place your order at the counter and they hand you a buzzer. Once it goes off, just head back and collect your tray. We went for the classic beef bowl (gyudon)—always satisfying and great value for money. The portions were generous, the beef was flavorful and tender, and it hit the spot after a wet, chilly walk at the castle ruins. It’s the kind of comfort food you can count on, especially when traveling with family. Yoshinoya might be a chain, but it’s exactly the kind of simple, consistent, and affordable meal that makes traveling around Japan so easy. No surprises—just good food, fast service, and plenty of convenience. #summervacay #YoshinoyaJapan #GyudonFix #NihonmatsuEats #JapanRoadTrip #TravelFuel #QuickBitesJapan #ValueForMoney #ComfortFoodJapan #FukushimaEats #FamilyFriendlyStop #japan #japantrip #tohoku #tohokutrip #travel

We made a stop at the Nihonmatsu Castle Ruins, but I’d say it’s really more suited for those driving, as access without a car can be a bit of a challenge. I drove all the way up to the public parking area, which was just a small open patch—not many spots, and the road leading up was quite narrow, so do drive with caution. As for the site itself, don’t expect to see any standing castle structures—this is more of a historical site with stone foundations and remnants of what used to be. Interestingly, some of the photos displayed around the area actually seemed to be of Kasumigajo Park, which is nearby and might cause a bit of confusion for first-time visitors. That said, the views from the top were surprisingly nice, even on the rainy day we visited. The mist and drizzle added a moody, atmospheric touch to the ruins and surrounding trees, which made for some lovely, quiet moments despite the weather. If you’re a history buff or someone who enjoys walking through quiet, scenic ruins, you might still enjoy it. But if you’re expecting an intact castle or interactive experience, you might leave a bit underwhelmed. #summervacay #NihonmatsuCastleRuins #CastleRuinsJapan #TohokuTravel #HiddenJapan #HistoricalJapan #OffTheBeatenPath #JapanRoadTrip #CastleViews #TravelRealTalk #RainyDayExploration #japan #japantrip #tohoku #tohokutrip #travel

#cherryblossom25 Nakajima Jizozakura in Akiyama is a charming little cherry blossom spot that feels super down-to-earth and real. This ancient sakura tree has been around for ages, standing tall and proud with its soft pink flowers lighting up the area every spring. The tree sits near a small Jizo statue, giving the place a peaceful, almost spiritual vibe that’s really calming. It’s not packed with tourists, so you get plenty of quiet moments to soak in the beauty and snap some cool photos without any rush. The surrounding countryside adds to the chill atmosphere, with rolling hills and fresh air making it a perfect escape from busy city life. If you want to experience cherry blossoms in a simple, heartfelt way, Nakajima Jizozakura is a sweet little hidden gem in Akiyama you won’t want to miss.

#springwander The altitude is 1,700m, but if you use the "Adatarayama Ropeway", you can go up to the summit station at an altitude of about 1,350m in about 10 minutes from the foot of the mountain station, and you can easily enjoy trekking in about an hour and a half to the top of the mountain, so it is suitable for beginners and families. Also popular. It is also known as a famous place for autumn leaves, and from late September to mid-October every year, it is crowded with many climbers. Ski resorts are open in winter, and you can enjoy one of the best snow quality in Tohoku.

Mt. Adatara, one of Japan's 100 famous mountains, is located in Fukushima Prefecture. It is a mountain with an altitude of 1,700m, but you can take the ropeway to a height of 1,350m, and then walk for 5 minutes to reach Yakushidake Panorama Park, where the summit of Mt. Yakushi is right in front of you. A shrine and a hanging bell are enshrined at the summit. The view of the Adatara mountain range from the summit of Mt. Yakushi is also a spectacular view, but if you come this far, we recommend aiming for the summit of Mt. Adatara. It takes about 1 to 1.5 hours from the summit of Mt. Yakushi. (However, it is dangerous if you do not have proper equipment such as trekking shoes.) The autumn world of Mt. Adatara is also said to be as beautiful as Mt. Kurikoma, which is famous for having the best autumn leaves in Japan. The world below was blue, but the autumn leaves near the summit were magnificent. Rarely found at such a high altitude, there were fields of silver grass instead of alpine plants. The summit of Mt. Adatara is also known as Mt. Chichikubiyama (Chichikubiyama) lol. When I visited, the fog was so thick that I couldn't see much, but when it's clear, you can see Mt. Bandai, the Iide mountain range, the Zao mountain range, and more. When descending, it is more interesting to descend from the Okudake area if you have time and energy, rather than taking the ropeway. However, after it rains, it gets muddy, and the muddy roads and rocks are slippery, so be careful. After descending, it is customary to wash off the sweat at "Okudake no Yu" (650 yen for adults) located right in front of the ropeway station. (Although I didn't have time, I skipped it...) Even beginners can easily climb it, so it's recommended for climbing to see the autumn leaves! #tripdomestictravel #FukushimaPrefecture #breathtakingview #autumnleaves #climbing

#DomesticTravelRecord A restaurant famous for its sauce katsudon, founded in 1948, located at the entrance to Dake Onsen in Nihonmatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture As rumored, the volume is so large that the lid won't close, and the katsu is thicker than I've ever seen, so you may not be able to finish it by yourself (it seems you can take the rest home) The taste is also very delicious There are 7-8 parking spaces in front of the restaurant If there are no spaces available, you can use the free parking lot at Dake Onsen It gets crowded on holidays and at lunchtime, and there are often lines before the restaurant opens There is a waiting sheet at the entrance of the restaurant, so please write your name and line up We recommend visiting when you have time #Fukushima #FukushimaTourism #Gourmet #GourmetTrip #DomesticTrip #SoloTrip

I stayed at "Katakuri," which has an open-air bath in the room that is 100% natural spring water. There is a large open-air bath in the garden, which is about the same size as the open-air bath in the large communal bath.

I visited 【Adatara Kogen Ippuku】. They practice beekeeping, so you can taste and buy delicious honey. They also sell gelato with unique flavors like salted milk, home-grown holy basil, neem, shiso, yuzu, and ginger. They all looked so delicious that we ordered a variety. The gelato is topped with their home-harvested honey, making it shiny and beautiful. There are also tree houses and saunas. It's a spot where you can fully enjoy nature in the forest.

At the foot of Mount Adatara in Fukushima Prefecture, there is an adorable cheesecake shop. It has received rave reviews with comments like, 'I've never had such delicious cheesecake!' They offer 8 to 10 types of cheesecakes, as well as puddings and cookies made with locally sourced milk, and other baked goods. In the cafe, you can order delicious drinks like coffee to enjoy with your cake. The interior and decorations are also carefully designed, creating a very cute space. I bought some baked goods and pudding as souvenirs. They were so cute and well-received.

#dreamvoyage Experience the snow at Adatara Kogen Resort • Adatara Kogen Resort is located in Fukushima City, about 200 kilometers from Tokyo. It has both beginner and expert ski slopes, as well as a sledding and a children's slope. • There are also hiking trails for beginners and experienced riders, and you can reach the top of Adatara by ropeway. • There are both indoor and outdoor hot springs.

Not finished yet in Fukushima city. Today, we will take you on a road trip along the Mt.adatara skyline, where the leaves change color on both sides of the road, along with limestone mountains with smoke billowing out of the chimneys at intervals. It is a beautiful landscape view. Nature lovers will love it. We went with children and the elderly loved it very much. It was fun to watch. The route is easy to drive. If you can drive in Thailand, you should be able to drive comfortably in Japan. #Traveling to Japan on your own

Fuji-Q Rest House is located in the Adatara Kogen Ski Resort in Fukushima Prefecture. It is near the Adatara Ropeway leading to Mt. Adatara and Mt. Yakushi. Adatara Kogen Ski Resort is a ski resort in winter and the entrance to the Okudake trailhead to Mt. Adatara in summer. The Yakushidake Panorama Park, which can be reached by ropeway, and the autumn leaves of Mt. Adatara are truly spectacular. This time, I bought the Mt. Yakushi Churros and the Adatara Mountain Real Sky Churros immediately at Fuji-Q Rest House because they were so cute. *The Sky Churros are a little larger. They are served freshly fried, so they are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and very delicious. They are not too sweet and have a light texture, making them easy to eat. Fuji-Q Rest House has ramen, soba, udon, curry, and many other menu items. The restaurant has table seats and terrace seats, so it is very spacious and relaxing. Souvenirs are also sold at the shop next door. The day-trip hot spring Okudake no Yu is also nearby.

Mt. Adatara is one of Japan's 100 famous mountains, located in Fukushima Prefecture. During the autumn foliage season, the entire mountain surface is dyed red and yellow, creating a breathtaking view. This time, we aimed to reach the summit of Mt. Adatara via Mt. Yakushi. In addition to the mountain trail, you can also reach Mt. Adatara by taking the Adatara Mountain Ropeway, which takes about 10 minutes to the summit station. From the summit station, it takes about 75 minutes to reach the summit. Below the ropeway, you can see the cityscape from Koriyama City to Fukushima City, the Abukuma mountain range, the Zao mountain range in the distance, and the spectacular view of Mt. Azuma Kofuji. You can also reach Mt. Yakushi by walking about 5 minutes from the ropeway summit station. It was a weekday afternoon, but the autumn leaves were at their peak, so it was crowded. This time, the ropeway was out of service due to strong winds, so we walked about 1 hour and 20 minutes on the mountain trail from the Okudake trailhead, passed Mt. Yakushi, and then took another 80 minutes to reach the summit of Mt. Adatara. The ropeway was running on the way down, so I used it. Even I, a beginner at mountain climbing, was able to go. There was a strong wind at the top of the mountain, but I was simply moved by the spectacular autumn leaves. Please visit it at least once. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 📍 Mt.

Yakushidake Panorama Park is located at the summit of Mt. Yakushi in Fukushima Prefecture. During the autumn foliage season, the entire mountainside is dyed red and yellow, creating a breathtaking view. There is a monument to the True Sky that Chieko spoke of in Takamura Kotaro's book "Chieko Sho." Beyond the True Sky is Mt. Adatara, one of Japan's 100 most famous mountains. In addition to the mountain trail, you can reach Yakushidake Panorama Park by taking the Adatara Mountain Ropeway to the summit station in about 10 minutes. Below the ropeway, you can see the cityscape from Koriyama City to Fukushima City, the Abukuma mountain range, the Zao mountain range in the distance, and even the spectacular Azuma Kofuji.

Jododaira is a highland on the highest mountain of Mt. Adara, which is ranked as one of the top 10 most beautiful mountains in Japan. You will see smoke rising from the crater along with the view of Mt. Finpun. It is even better when the leaves are not falling and it is a bit cold. The weather is good. During the winter, when it snows, the road will be closed and you cannot go up to the top. You will find the crater of Mt. Azuma Kofuji, which is 500 meters in diameter. It is a highlight that you cannot miss. It takes about 1 hour to walk around and see the unique view that can only be seen here. #TravelJapanByYourself #Japan

#timetotravel The summit of Mt. Adatara stands at an altitude of 1700 m, stretching about 9 kilometers in a north-to-south direction. Views of Mt. Adatara are lovely in and of themselves, but the views that visitors have of the surrounding area once they reach the summit are breathtaking. Chosen as one of Japan’s top 100 mountains, as well as one of the top 100 mountains for flowers, a view spot at an altitude of 1300 m can be accessed by gondola lift. This means that it is relatively easy to climb even for beginners.

Adatara Kogen Ski Resort. Even on weekends there are relatively few people, and there are many children, so it is recommended for beginners and intermediate skiers. Advanced skiers might find it a little unsatisfying... The house also serves light meals such as frankfurters!
