We Spent 48 Hours in Fukushima – Good Food, Warm People, and Quiet Streets

We spent 48 peaceful hours in Fukushima, Japan — exploring its calm streets, visiting quiet shrines, and enjoying some amazing local food. Far from the usual tourist crowds, this trip was all about slowing down and experiencing everyday life in a lesser-known but deeply beautiful part of Japan.

From cozy izakayas to friendly locals, Fukushima offered us warmth, simplicity, and a sense of connection that’s hard to find in big cities. We captured not only the sights but also the feeling of being fully present in a place rich with history and heart.
