Adachigahara Furusato Village

Located in Adachigahara, Nihonmatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture, this facility features a vast natural garden dotted with a local history museum, traditional houses open for viewing, an indoor kids’ park, a bouncy dome, and more. Visitors can spend the day in many ways-learning about Nihonmatsu’s history and local culture or enjoying the playground equipment. In spring, a Cherry Blossom Festival is held, and in early fall, the Manjushage (red spider lily) Festival takes place. Seasonal flowers illuminated at night can be enjoyed with the village’s symbol, a five-story pagoda, as the backdrop.

Blue Cave (Otaru, Hokkaido)

The Blue Cave, where sunlight filters through and illuminates the sea floor, is a natural masterpiece created by the absorption of all colors except blue from the spectrum of light. This phenomenon, a result of the perfect blend of water clarity, geographical features, and the angle of light, can be found in various places around the world, including the renowned Capri Island in Italy. However, the cave located within the Niseko Shakotan Otaru Quasi-National Park is a must-visit when touring Otaru.
