Hi everyone, my name is William. I\u2019m one of the new CIRs here in Fukushima Prefecture, and am taking over for Lachie Tranter in the International Affairs Division. Lachie has kindly allowed me to continue his Fukushima Live blog. I hope to be able to continue to share with you all life in Fukushima, the challenges people here are facing, and many of the wonderful attractions the prefecture has to offer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

Recently I had the opportunity to travel around the Aizu Region here in Fukushima Prefecture. Aizu, the westernmost region of the three regions in Fukushima, is known for its rich history and sake-brewing industry.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The highlight of the trip was visting \u014cuchi-juku. Located in the mountains of Minami-Aizu, \u014cuchi-juku was a post town during Japan\u2019s Edo period (1603 \u2013 1868). It is famous for the traditional thatched buildings that line its main street, allowing visitors to experience the atmosphere of the Edo period here in modern day Japan.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n
