    Aichi Pref. Kitashitaragunshitarachou Damine Dando 1-1
    This is a virgin forest located next to the Dando Lake in Shitara Town, Kitashitara County, Aichi Prefecture. In this forest, the largest in Aichi, are over 200-year-old flourishing beech trees. On the walking paths, including the Tokai Nature Trail, wind through the forest allowing visitors to see many wild birds, marsh plants, while enveloped in a bath of green. The attraction of this forest is that provides a beautiful spot for outdoor activities in every season of the year. Adjacent to the forest lies an approximately two-square-hectare lake, The Dando Lake Bureau of Fishing Area, into which rainbow trout are released annually for a fishing competition held every mid-November, sponsored by the Shitara Tourism Association.

Aichi Areas

Aichi is a prefecture of great natural beauty with Nagoya city at its heart, a busy hub home to a labyrinth of underground shops and the 17th-century Nagoya Castle. Castles are easy to find in this history-rich prefecture, but the highlight for history buffs has to be the Museum Meiji-mura, where preserved buildings from the turn of the 20th century are displayed in all their grandeur in an outdoor museum.
