Tohoku & Nikko

DESTINATIONS
Tohoku & Nikko

Tohoku is a vast region to the north-east of Tokyo, famous for its beautiful landscapes including rugged coastline, historic ‘onsen’ villages, festivals, food and a couple of good ski resorts. Six prefectures – Fukushima, Yamagata, Miyagi, Iwate, Akita and Aomori – make-up the region; a region relatively unknown and overlooked by international visitors. Those who do venture to Tohoku discover an enticing blend of natural attractions – including some of Japan’s best national parks – and distinct local identity most clearly expressed through its boisterous festivals and rich food culture; and while the World Heritage shrines of Nikko lie just outside the region’s boundary, they are easily incorporated into any journey into Tohoku – a lavish beacon calling you to leave Tokyo and keep moving north.
