Bandai

Tucked along the western slopes of Mount Bandai in Fukushima Prefecture, Bandai is a town whose character is shaped by deep winter snow and volcanic terrain. The 1,816-metre mountain rises above the Aizu region, while Lake Inawashiro lies to the southeast. Mount Bandai’s major 1888 eruption transformed its northern side and helped create the lakes and marshes of Urabandai. Bandai also belongs to the historic Aizu area, long associated with a distinct local identity and castle-town culture centred on Aizu-Wakamatsu. Its mountain roads and ski slopes make the seasons especially tangible here. Move on to other webcams in Fukushima Prefecture to compare landscapes and settings around Mount Bandai.
