Kannonji River Cherry Blossom Avenue

【1km Cherry Blossom Tunnel】A spring miracle reflected in the clear stream. The rainbow-colored 'Cherry Blossom Avenue of Kannonji River'

The Kannonji River flowing through Inawashiro Town. The cherry blossom trees lining the embankment for about 1km are one of the most popular cherry blossom viewing spots in Fukushima Prefecture. The contrast between the natural flow of the river, which has not undergone bank construction, and the cherry blossoms that fill the sky is a beauty that captivates the hearts of onlookers in an instant.

■ The luxury of walking through the cherry blossom tunnel

The highlight here is the overwhelming 'cherry blossom corridor' created by the Somei Yoshino and weeping cherry trees.

• A pink world: The cherry blossom tunnel that continues for about 1km dyes everything in sight in spring colors as soon as you step inside.
• Japan's original landscape: Cherry blossoms that cover the sky and the clear stream flowing at your feet. Walking while listening to the sound of the river is an irreplaceable moment of healing.

■ The fantastical 'Rainbow Light-up' night cherry blossoms

The niche point of interest is the night performances held during the cherry blossom festival.

• Rainbow brilliance: The 'seven colors' light that illuminates the cherry blossoms sets it apart from ordinary light-ups.
• Dramatic water mirror: The reflection of the seven colors of light on the river surface creates a fantastical scene as if you've wandered into a dream. You can enjoy the enchanting night cherry blossoms, which are completely different from the rustic beauty of the daytime.
