Fukushima: A Tour of Flowers and Fruit Along Hanamiyama and the Fruit Line
Start at Hanamiyama Park (花見山公園), praised by the Fukushima photographer Shotaro Akiyama as a paradise found in Fukushima. At Monjizuri Kannon (文知摺観音), a site celebrated in classical poetry and visited by the poet Basho, discover the legend of the Mochizuri Stone, then leisurely enjoy art at the lush, green Fukushima Prefectural Museum of Art (福島県立美術館). In the afternoon, enjoy craft experiences and a stroll around Shiki no Sato (四季の里) within Anna Garden (アンナガーデン), and finish up with seasonal fruit picking at Maruse Orchard (まるせい果樹園) along the Fruit Line. With flowers, history, art, and fruit all packed into a day of manageable walking distances, this is a perfect fit for a three-generation family traveling with grandparents.
