~ The Tohoku Destination Campaign – 10 Years Since ~

It has been 10 years since the Great East Japan Earthquake devastated much of the Tohoku region, located in the northeastern portion of Japan’s mainland. As a way to help assist in the region’s recovery, one of our partners, East Japan Railway Company, has begun the Tohoku Destination Campaign since April, which will last until September 30. Why not take this opportunity to travel to Tohoku and discover its beauty?
