Every year in early April, cherry blossoms start blooming in Japan’s northeastern Tohoku region. Here, trains run through a landscape of floating pink petals, allowing you to enjoy many scenic spots for railways and cherry blossoms!
Such views are available in-between Funaoka Station and Ogawara Station on the Tohoku Main Line, Fukushima Prefecture’s Aizu Railway, Aomori Prefecture’s Tsugaru Railway, as well as from the slope car in Miyagi Prefecture’s Funaoka Castle Park.
When visiting the Tohoku region in the spring, don’t miss out on taking the train to enjoy beautiful cherry blossom trees!
You'll be fascinated by the mystique of the brilliantly colored torii gates against surrounded by cherry blossoms laying in the mountains of Mt. Takayama.
