Discover Aomori
Hirosaki Castle & Park (弘前城)
Hirosaki Park is one of the "100 Best Cherry Blossom Viewing Spots in Japan", and it is a well-known cherry blossom viewing spot. Hirosaki Park covers an area of approximately 49 hectares, and is dominated by Somei Yoshino Sakura varieties, which bloom in full bloom in Hirosaki Park, and the spring scene is amazing. Hirosaki Castle in the park is the only ancient city remaining in the Tohoku region. The historic Hirosaki Castle contrasts with the trees in the park. In autumn, the red maple leaves dye the entire Hirosaki Park, forming a tunnel of red leaves, and night maple lights are lit at night. The magnificent scenery is not to be missed.
Lake Towada (十和田湖)
Aomori's Lake Towada is a dual crater lake that formed after a huge volcanic eruption. With the Towada Art Center as its anchor, the city's charms include an unspoiled natural environment and a community
around the lake that now draws tourists up to this northern prefecture from all over the world.

Oirase Stream (奧入瀨溪流)
Oirase Stream is located in Towada Hachimantai National Park, Aomori Prefecture. It is listed as a national place of interest and a natural monument. It is about 14 kilometers in length. The Oirase Stream is composed of dozens of waterfalls. There are trails for tourists to roam along the way. A summer resort in Japan, the turquoise forests and white waterfalls create a beautiful contrast. Autumn is a famous place for maple viewing. The red-colored Oirase Stream is a different flavor. The four seasons are the secret places that must be visited in a lifetime.
