The map
Shirakawa Map Poster & Print
Shirakawa lies in southern Fukushima Prefecture, where the Kanto plain gives way to the Tohoku region. For centuries it marked the traditional gateway to the north, and the historic Shirakawa barrier checkpoint is famous in Japanese poetry. The town sits in a basin crossed by the Abukuma River, with hills rising on several sides.
At its centre are the grounds of Komine Castle, whose restored keep stands near the railway station. Southeast of the town lies Nanko Park, created in 1801 by the lord Matsudaira Sadanobu and often described as one of the oldest public parks in Japan. The Tohoku Shinkansen stops at Shin-Shirakawa station, on the town's western side.
A Shirakawa map poster shows the layers of a castle town: the castle grounds near the old core, the railway lines, the river and the pond at Nanko Park. It is a compact map with a long story behind it.

Nanko Park
Established in 1801 around a large pond, Nanko Park is regarded as one of Japan's earliest public parks. Its water and gardens stand out clearly on the map.
Abukuma River
The river runs through the Shirakawa area on its way north through Fukushima, adding a gentle, winding line to the composition.
