[1km Cherry Blossom Tunnel] A spring miracle reflected in the clear stream. The rainbow-colored "Kannonji River Cherry Blossom Avenue"

The Kannonji River flowing through Inawashiro Town. The cherry blossom avenue stretches about 1km along the embankment and is 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 protection work, and the cherry blossoms that fill the sky above is a beauty that captivates the heart 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 will dye your entire field of vision in spring colors as soon as you step inside.
  • Japan's original landscape: Cherry blossoms that cover the sky and a clear stream flowing at your feet. Walking while listening to the murmuring of the river becomes an irreplaceable moment of healing.

■ The fantastical "Rainbow Light-Up" night cherry blossoms

The unique highlight is the nighttime performances held during the cherry blossom festival.

  • Rainbow brilliance: The "seven colors" of light that illuminate the cherry blossoms are distinct from ordinary light-ups.
  • Drama-like water mirror: The reflection of the seven-colored light on the river surface creates a fantastical scene as if you have wandered into a dream. You can enjoy the seductive night cherry blossom viewing, which dramatically changes from the rustic beauty of the daytime.
