Experience the Magic of Japan in Winter with EVA Air
Discover a different Japan this Winter, from Northern Snow to City Lights
Winter reveals a quieter, more atmospheric side of Japan. For travellers returning to Japan, it is an invitation to go beyond the familiar and discover snow-covered landscapes, soothing hot springs, seasonal cuisine and winter traditions. Couples can combine snowy scenery and onsen with memorable dining; families can enjoy snow festivals and winter experiences; and solo travellers can explore Japan’s seasonal culture at their own pace. From January to March, the north offers spectacular snow and powder, while cities such as Tokyo and Osaka sparkle with winter illuminations and southern destinations such as Fukuoka offer a milder winter escape. Discover the many faces of winter Japan—from the powder snow of Hokkaido and the snowy landscapes of Aomori to the winter lights of Tokyo and Osaka and the milder climate of Fukuoka.
Aomori: Winter that speaks to the Heart
Why January–March?
Tips

At the northern tip of Honshu, Aomori reveals a Japan of snow, silence, nature and living traditions. Snow-covered forests, remote hot springs, local seafood and sake create an intimate winter experience far from the pace of the big cities. For repeat visitors, Aomori offers the feeling of discovering a side of Japan that still feels deeply local and authentic.
Between snow-covered landscapes, atmospheric villages and timeless hot-spring rituals, Aomori offers a slower, more contemplative Japan.

Winter is when Aomori becomes true snow country. Expect deep snow, winter scenery, seasonal food and distinctive experiences such as the Hirosaki Castle Snow Lantern Festival. The region is also home to Aoni Onsen, a remote hot-spring retreat known for its traditional atmosphere.

Pair Aomori with Tokyo by Shinkansen for an easy contrast between metropolitan energy and snowy northern landscapes.
Make an onsen stay part of the journey—Aoni Onsen is an especially atmospheric choice for a winter escape.
Super Tip to enhance the Wonder
Make winter your reason to see a different Japan: pair a familiar city such as Tokyo or Osaka with a less-explored destination, e.g. Aomori.

Aomori: The Magic of Northern Japan
Leave the city behind and discover snow-covered forests, quiet landscapes, traditional hot springs and seasonal flavours. Aomori is Japan for travellers who want to slow down, reconnect and discover something new.
Whether travelling as a couple, with family or on your own, winter offers a Japan to match your pace—from powder snow and onsen in the north to food, culture and illuminated cities further south.
Sapporo & Hokkaido — Powder, Snow and Winter Energy
Sapporo is a winter wonderland where snow, great food and city energy come together. Experience the famous Sapporo Snow Festival, explore Susukino and taste Hokkaido’s renowned seafood and miso ramen. Nearby ski resorts offer some of Japan’s finest powder snow.
January brings excellent snow conditions; February is festival time; March still offers winter sports and snowy landscapes.
Tokyo — Winter Lights & City Discovery
Tokyo in winter combines crisp, dry days with illuminated streets, temples and shrines and an extraordinary food scene. January adds the atmosphere of New Year traditions, while late March can bring the first signs of spring.
Osaka — Food, Lights & Kansai
Osaka is made for a winter city break. Discover Dotonbori and Namba, enjoy Osaka’s famous comfort food and use the city as a base for Kyoto, Nara and Kobe. Winter illuminations add extra sparkle to the city.
Fukuoka — A Milder Side of Winter
Fukuoka offers a relaxed winter escape with exceptional seafood, tonkotsu ramen and warming motsunabe. Visit Dazaifu Tenmangu for its famous plum blossoms and explore Hakata’s lively food culture.
Winter is ideal for warming local dishes, while late winter brings the plum blossoms at Dazaifu Tenmangu.
