Sukagawa

Sukagawa has served as a post-town and commercial centre within Japan’s Tōhoku region since the Edo period. In Fukushima Prefecture, the city developed along the historic Ōshū Kaidō route and remains closely linked to the Abukuma River basin. Sukagawa is widely associated with Eiji Tsuburaya, the special-effects pioneer behind Ultraman, and celebrates that connection through local public art and events. Its annual Taimatsu Akashi fire festival, when enormous torches are carried and burned, is among the area’s most distinctive autumn traditions.
