2025 Oyama Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

[Access] JR Ryomo Line, Shonan Shinjuku Line, Shinkansen, Oyama Station [Points] ~Full of tourist spots~ This was my first time visiting Oyama, and I would recommend it. I think it's a good idea to visit it in combination with Utsunomiya or Nikko. There are many places where you can enjoy nature, such as the Omoi River and Oyama Goten Square in front of the city hall, so I think you can enjoy a stroll even if you have small children. If you get tired from walking around, why not stop by Shikisaikan to eat and buy souvenirs? When you enter the building with a nice atmosphere, there is a place to eat at the back, and a souvenir shop in front. When visiting Oyama, we recommend gathering information at the Tourist Information Center near the station before going. *Information as of September 2023.

As soon as I got off at the west exit of Oyama Station in Oyama City, Tochigi Prefecture, I found the words "Showa Yokocho" and decided to walk there! I had heard that places like this were tough, and it seems Showa Yokocho is no exception. Suika Tamuro is fighting a lonely battle. Please come and visit! #retrotownscape

Right next to the roadside station Shikisaikan, I found a small Japanese garden called Suikinkutsu and something I found really intriguing called Hyōjō Kaiun-sui! Oyama city is known as a city of good fortune, and apparently it got its name from the historical military council called the Oyama Hyōjō, which took place there. #FreeSpot

We took a quick look at the Oyama Honba Yuki Tsumugi Craft Museum, which is located right outside the west exit of Oyama Station! Inside, there is a facility where you can try weaving, handmade products are sold, and old weaving machines are on display! #FreeSpot

Ekihigashi Park A park located at 2-25-23 Ekihigashidori, Oyama City, Tochigi Prefecture, a 6-minute walk from the east exit of JR Oyama Station. There is a steam locomotive C50 No. 123 under a roof, and there is a sign that says it is open on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays from 9am to 12pm. You can see it from outside even if it is not an open day. The park also has a fountain, playground equipment, and restrooms. There were not many people, so I was able to take my time looking around. #Tochigi #SL #summer trip#trip with kids

#aprilblooms #localguides #postandearn Hidden away from the bustling streets and tourist trails, Taishoji isn’t just a temple—it’s a moment of stillness, a place where the air feels heavier with meaning, and every detail seems touched by intention. On my visit, I wasn’t just sightseeing—I was feeling something deeper. My #TaishojiTrip became a gentle pause in the noise of travel. Located in Matsuyama, Ehime Prefecture, Taishoji is a Soto Zen Buddhist temple founded in the 17th century. The approach is humble—no flashy gates or swarms of visitors. Instead, you’re greeted by the rustle of trees, the scent of incense, and the quiet crunch of gravel under your feet. It’s the kind of place that asks nothing from you except presence. What struck me most was the balance—the simplicity of the wooden structures against the backdrop of lush greenery, and the way the temple grounds seemed to breathe with the rhythm of nature. I took time to sit near the garden, watching sunlight shift across moss-covered stones and hearing nothing but birdsong and the distant wind chime. Inside, the temple's tatami rooms and calligraphy-lined halls gave me a real sense of spiritual depth. There are no grand ceremonies or tourist gimmicks—just authentic Zen practice and peaceful solitude. If you're lucky, you might encounter a monk in meditation or hear a soft chant echoing through the corridors. Best Time to Visit: Late spring (April–May) for fresh blossoms and clear skies, or autumn (October–November) for fiery maple leaves and a poetic atmosphere. Location Tip: Taishoji is a short walk or bus ride from central Matsuyama. Combine it with a visit to Dogo Onsen for a perfect day of serenity and traditional beauty. Bonus Tip: Bring a small notebook or sketchpad. This is a place that invites quiet reflection—and you might find thoughts worth writing down. #Hashtags: #TaishojiTrip #ZenTempleJapan #HiddenGemsJapan #SotoZen #MatsuyamaMoments #TempleTravel #SpiritualJourney #TripApproved #JapanOffThePath #QuietEscape

On the way to Nikko, we found a very large strawberry picking farm! Not only can you eat as many strawberries as you want here (about 100 RMB for about 40 minutes), but the village design also has a fairy tale atmosphere. It is about a 1.5 hour drive from Tokyo, and is recommended as a combination visit to Nikko's tourist attractions. This farm is open all year round, and we recommend making an online reservation in advance if you want to pick strawberries. Tickets for the day are often sold out. How about enjoying strawberries here first from Tokyo, exploring, visiting Nikko Toshogu Shrine and Kegon Falls, and staying overnight in Nikko while experiencing a mountain forest hot spring?

Omoigawa Sakura Tsutsumi, a famous cherry blossom spot in Oyama City, Tochigi Prefecture "Omoigawa Sakura" is said to be a cherry blossom native to Oyama City, and is characterized by its deep pink petals that bloom about a week later than Somei Yoshino. Because it is a late-blooming cherry tree, it continues to be in full bloom even in mid-April. Normally, when you search for "Omoigawa Sakura Tsutsumi", you will get results for the cherry blossom line on the east side of Hakuoh University Daigyoji Campus, but the cherry blossom embankment in the area of ​​Mamada is more popular. Dozens of cherry trees line the banks, which also serve as a cycling road, making it a very photogenic spot. Below the banks are lush rice fields, wheat fields, and rapeseed fields, creating a lovely landscape that looks like something out of a picture book. Many locals spend their time relaxing here, picnicking and taking walks, and it's still a hidden gem. 📍Omoigawa Sakura Embankment (Cherry Blossoms Lined Along Omoigawa River in Mamada) Mamada, Oyama City, Tochigi Prefecture 24 hours No parking #Seasonal Places in Japan #Tochigi Prefecture #Famous Cherry Blossom Spots #Breathtaking Views

It is located on the other side of the Omoi River in Oyama City. It is a restaurant in the Tachiki district. It recently opened. Even the small fried chicken set meal is very filling. It is also a yakiniku restaurant, so it would be nice to have some yakiniku and a few drinks in the evening. I was full from lunch. It is behind Cainz Home and Beisia. They also have Korean food on the menu, so I am a bit interested. It is not a very far distance to go, but I think it would be nice to go once in a while. #OyamaCity #OmoiRiver #HakuohUniversity #Lunch
