[FUKUSHIMA] To Aizu! How to Fully Enjoy Samurai City & the Snow Resort
Samurai—masters of instantly transitioning from contemplative stillness to dynamic motion—brought down their swords in arcs powered by their fighting spirits. Aizuwakamatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture continues to exist as a place where visitors can experience not only a Japanese-style castle but also the culture and lifestyle of the samurai. As you leisurely stroll through the city, you can experience the essence of the samurai soul and naturally get drawn into their rich history. Located right next to this impressive castle town is a snow resort rich in natural abundance. Situated in a national park, this ski resort offers a diverse variety of expansive ski slopes as well as light, powdery snow. The best way to enjoy this area is to go back and forth between Samurai City and the snow resort to fully experience what makes Japan so unique.
