Natural Parks in Japan
Natural parks in Japan are protected areas that showcase the country's diverse landscapes, including mountains, forests, and coastlines. There are 34 national parks, such as Nikko National Park and Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, which offer opportunities for hiking, wildlife observation, and enjoying scenic views. These parks are home to unique flora and fauna, some of which are endemic to Japan.
In addition to national parks, Japan has numerous prefectural parks and quasi-national parks that provide recreational spaces for locals and tourists. Many parks feature hot springs, historical sites, and cultural experiences, making them popular destinations for nature lovers and those seeking tranquility.
