Tohoku Parks and Nature

Tohoku’s landscape is defined by its dramatic volcanic geography and preserved historical sites. This collection spans the six northern prefectures, highlighting Japan’s deepest caldera at Lake Tazawa and the vast crater of Lake Towada. The list includes UNESCO-listed Jomon period ruins, Edo-period castle grounds like Hirosaki Park, and rare geological features such as the hot spring waterfalls of Kawarage Oyutaki. From the rugged limestone depths of Akkado Cave to the cherry blossom-lined banks of the Kitakami River, these sites showcase the region's diverse natural heritage.
