The Tsuruga-Wakasa area is located in the southwestern part of Fukui Prefecture and consists of six cities: Tsuruga City, Mihama Town, Wakasa Town, Obama City, Ooi Town, and Takahama Town. All six cities and towns face Wakasa Bay, and the area is rich in nature, including the Mikata Five Lakes, known as the five-colored lakes, as well as idyllic countryside and woodlands. Until the Heian period, it was one of the ``Miketsukuni'' countries that presented food such as seafood to the Imperial Court, and is still a treasure trove of ingredients, as well as a gateway to the continent, with temples, shrines, and railway heritage. Many cultural heritage sites remain that reflect the long and prosperous history of the area. It is close to Kyoto (approximately 1.5 to 2 hours by car), so please enter from Kansai Airport, enjoy Osaka and Kyoto, and then come to the Tsuruga/Wakasa area, which is rich in food and nature. On March 16, 2024, the Hokuriku Shinkansen will be extended to Tsuruga Station, shortening the travel time to Tokyo (minimum 3 hours and 8 minutes). Along the way, there are plenty of attractions such as the Dinosaur Museum, Eiheiji Temple, Tojinbo, Kanazawa, Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, and Karuizawa. Enjoy sightseeing in Japan to the fullest!
