Japan's Ministry of the Environment selected 8 out of these 34 national parks to promote the "Project to Fully Enjoy National Parks", a project that aims to attract foreign visitors to these parks.
ZEKKEI Japan supports this project, and we would like to introduce some of the best magnificent scenery spots in these 8 national parks.
This is the most historic national park in Hokkaido. The highlights of this park are the forest that is fascinating all year round, one of the most clearest waters in the world found in Lake Mashu, and the beautiful scenery of this forest and the lake put together.There are also many onsens in the area including the Lake Akan Onsen and the Kawayu Onsen, so you can go on an onsen tour.
This national park extends over the three prefectures of Aomori, Iwate, and Akita, and you can get a fantastic view of mountains, vallies, lakes and marshes. Lake Towada and Oirase Gorge are especially beautiful spots that were designated as national monuments. You can also enjoy old-fashioned onsens at the Tamagawa, Matsukawa, and Nyuto Onsen areas.
The Nikko National Park was established in 1934 and it became one of Japan's first national parks. As it is one of Japan's most famous mountain parks, there are many beautiful natural landscapes including the Kegon Falls, and many historic buildings including shrines and temples that were designated as World Heritage Sites.
The Ise-Shima National Park was the first to be designated as a national park post-war in 1946.At this park you can enjoy one of Japan's best spiritual spots, the historic Ise Jingu Shrine, and the beautiful scenery of the Ria Coast.

Sanbe region were added, and it became the current "Daisen-Oki National Park". The park extends over the three prefectures of Shimane, Okayama, and Tottori. At the park you can enjoy changes in scenery of its nearby volcanic landform, rich forests, and plains throughout the different seasons of the year.
