Tadami, Mountain town in Minamiaizu district, Japan

Tadami is a town set among forested mountains in western Fukushima Prefecture, with the Tadami River running through its valley. The settlement is surrounded by dense woodland that covers most of the territory, creating a landscape where buildings sit nestled among trees and steep slopes.

The settlement began in 1889 as Inahoku village and later combined with Asahi village to become a town in 1959. This merger of rural communities reflects how mountain areas of Japan were reorganized into modern administrative units during the 20th century.

The Kohata Flag Festival brings together people through traditional ceremonies performed on the mountainsides, showing how locals connect with their natural surroundings and mark important times of year.

The Tadami Line railway connects the area and allows visitors to travel without a car, with Aizu-Wakamatsu station serving as the main entry point. Getting around by train is straightforward since the line runs through the main valley where most services and accommodations are located.

The Tadami Line is famous for journeys through untouched forest landscape, offering views of mountain slopes, gorges, and waterfalls from the train windows. Photography enthusiasts and railway lovers visit specifically to experience the slow-paced ride and the changing views that unfold along the route.
