If you’re searching for a day-trip destination, we’ve got some ideas. Situated 17 miles away, Aizuwakamatsu is worth getting in the car for. Aizuwakamatsu Castle, Higashiyama Onsen and Sazaedo alone justify the drive. Don’t miss Fukushima either! Just 20 miles away, Iizaka Onsen, Fukushima Azuma Baseball Stadium and Fukushima Prefectural Museum of Art are non-negotiable stops here.
