【Where the sky and earth blend, a golden sea】 The rural landscape of Aizu showcased by 'a single rice field'

Yukawa Village, the smallest municipality in Fukushima Prefecture, mostly consists of flat farmland. Here, there are almost no mountains or buildings obstructing the view, and a breathtaking scenery known as **'a single rice field'** stretches as far as the horizon. It is a pure rural art that touches the depths of the Japanese heart, created by years of land improvement and the passion of farmers.

■ A gigantic canvas painted by the colors of the seasons

As the seasons change, this vast panorama dramatically alters its expression.

  • Spring's mirrored world: During the rice planting season, the flooded rice fields become a giant mirror, reflecting the snow-capped Iide Mountains and the blue sky. The moment when the boundary between sky and earth disappears is enveloped in a silence and beauty that leaves one speechless.
  • Autumn's golden sea: Just before harvest, the heavy ears of rice swaying in the wind truly resemble a 'golden sea'. Surrounded by the sound and fragrance of the rippling rice, the rich vitality of the earth permeates through your entire being.

■ Ultimate sense of openness without obstructions

Located in the center of the Aizu Basin, experience a 360-degree sense of openness.

  • Light changing moment by moment: At dusk, the water surface is dyed in crimson. Or in winter, a serene monochrome world transformed into a silver landscape. Here, you can encounter a 'luxury of nothingness' that you can never find in the city.

An overwhelming sense of scale, as if the world expands from your feet. Forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse yourself deeply in Japan's original landscape. Would you like to experience this moment?
