Nasu’s Famous Early Summer Azaleas
Spending any time in Japan during the early summer? Well then you'll definitely want to get in on the flower viewing tradition! Springtime in Japan means participating in the better-known practice of cherry blossom viewing, but the residents of Japan love to see any kind of flower exploding into full bloom. And in early summer, tons of people rush to Yahata, Nasu, in Tochigi Prefecture, to feast their eyes on the vibrant pink azaleas.
If you're in the area, you really can't miss the huge azalea bushes that tower high above your head. Walk the paths of Nasu and let the sea of pinks and reds wash over you!
Tochigi Prefecture is only a little ways outside of Tokyo, and you can get there in just an hour on the bullet train! If you're looking for lots of unique things to do, it's a great little trip away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Let the flowers bring you a little dose of relaxation, or have some fun hanging out with a host of different animals.
Grab a rental car from JR Nasushiobara station, and you'll be surrounded by azaleas in no time!

What to Do in Nasu

The Nasu area has beautiful flowers, but it's also well-known for its super high-quality dairy products! Test that reputation in the best possible way, by taking a little trip to this ice cream factory. (About 350 yen.)
Of course, any local will tell you that Nasu also has amazing hot springs!
Before heading back to Tokyo, or wherever home may be, don't miss out on a chance to finish off your relaxing azalea trip with a soak in some steaming hot spring water. If you don't know where to go for this, we've recommended a few of them before. Among them is even one of the rare Japanese hot springs, or onsen (温泉), where you can wear a bathing suit. So kick back and relax, enjoy Tochigi before getting back to real life. ♨
