It is a naked island located in Asamushi, Aomori City, Aomori Prefecture. There is a legend here. A long time ago, in a village in the Asamushi district, a mother worked in the fields with her baby lying in the shade of a tree. At that moment, a great eagle flew out of nowhere and flew away with the sleeping baby. The kidnapped baby was lowered to the top of the bare island, where the great hawk rested its wings. Noticing this, the mother went into a frenzy and tried to climb the rocks of the bare island with her bare hands. It is said that when he desperately scratched the rock face, the bare island, which was a smooth rock, was chipped on the side and stained with his mother's blood, giving it its current shape. It's not a flattering story, but ... However, there is no eerie atmosphere at all, and as the name "Naked Island" suggests, it is an impressive place with exposed rock surfaces. Only the island is orange because it picks up the light of nearby street lamps.

This photo was taken during a tour trip to the Shirakami Mountains in mid-October 2023. From the Shirakami Mountains Visitor Center on the Aomori Prefecture side, we were guided by a guide and walked around the edge of the Shirakami Mountains for about 2 hours. It was raining badly, but the beech forest was bright and the rain was pleasant. I am impressed by the scenery of Japan, where such beautiful nature remains. I was shocked when the guide told me, "Due to global warming, you may not be able to see this scenery in the near future." It is a landscape that I want to cherish.

At Mt. Hachiman in Shichinohe Town, Aomori Prefecture. It seems that this place used to operate under the name of Lavender Village, but now it has gone out of business. It is a wonderful place with a building that does not look like Japan. Now a solar panel has been installed next to it, and I can't go inside. It is said that photography is a once-in-a-lifetime event, but I am really glad that I took it when I could.

Tohoku Aomori's Nebuta Festival is famous. Also located in Hirosaki and Goshogawara Sometimes it is crowded and you can only go on weekdays, so I happened to be recommended by a person from Aomori. I did a lot of research and went to see The Tachineputa in Goshogawara is amazing, and the maker of Tachineputa is amazing, but the height was a little over 20m. I hope you can convey its power in the photo. It's usually displayed in the Tachineputa pavilion in the city, and there are three big ones, but there are various large and small things, and the tuna that I used to do alone is my favorite.

Approximately 2,600 cherry trees of 52 species are planted in Hirosaki Park, and it is a famous cherry blossom spot that is counted as one of the "three major cherry blossom viewing spots in Japan". There are many highlights, such as the Somei Yoshino cherry tree, the longest living cherry tree in Hirosaki Park that is over 140 years old, the illuminated night cherry blossoms, and the "flower raft" where cherry blossom petals fill the entire moat, and many people from inside and outside the prefecture visit the "Hirosaki Sakura Festival" held from late April to early May every year.
