Winter Wonderland Aizu

In the Aizu region of Fukushima Prefecture, heavy snowfall reaching warning levels has been occurring since early February.

However, this has created perfect conditions for snow resorts! At ski resorts in Urabandai, the snow depth has exceeded 4 meters, providing an exceptional winter sports experience unlike any other year.

Tsurugajo Castle in Aizuwakamatsu is covered in snow, revealing its unique winter charm. Known for its iconic red roof tiles, the castle’s snow-white appearance is just as stunning.

At Tenjin Beach on Lake Inawashiro, you can witness a natural wonder—shibuki-ice. This mystical ice formation, created by wind and waves, is a breathtaking sight only available in winter.

If you plan to visit, please be aware that some roads may be difficult to navigate due to heavy snow. Drive safely and enjoy the incredible winter scenery! 🚗❄️
