Japan - Northern Honshu (Tohoku) (PDF Chapter)
Tōhoku is Japan’s rugged north, a land of volcanic massifs, remote hot springs, ancient folklore and unique customs. This was a land where nothing much changed, until the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami changed everything. Today, new life emerges slowly, with trepidation and courage from the devastation. There’s never been a better time to explore Japan’s culturally diverse, stunningly beautiful, rugged, great north, and your visit can really make a difference.
