Yomogita Village

Aomori Prefecture · Village

Yomogita Village is a small village on the east side of the Tsugaru Peninsula, facing Mutsu Bay. Rivers flowing from Mt. Okura water the Yomogita Plain, where people farm scallops and grow rice and tomatoes. The village also raises Yomogita beef, a local brand, and the remains of the medieval Yomogita Castle survive.
