Yamagata
The romance of boat transport and history on the Mogami River
yamagata (1)

The Mogami River, which flows through Yamagata Prefecture, has flourished as a key point for shipping since ancient times, and has served as a stage not only for transporting goods but also for cultural exchange. In the Edo period, the haiku master Matsuo Basho descended the Mogami River on his "Oku-no-Hosomichi'' journey and wrote poems about the magnificent scenery. There are historical sites that remind us of the time when Basho visited, as well as monuments of Basho's poems, which enhance the appeal of a trip that gives you a sense of history and culture.

A healing blend of hot springs and history

Yamagata Prefecture has nationally famous hot springs such as Zao Onsen and Ginzan Onsen. These hot springs have a long history of being popular as hot springs and have been loved by many literary figures and artists. The hot spring town still has traditional inns and streets that give it a unique atmosphere.
In addition, you can experience breathtaking scenery close to you, such as the beautiful natural scenery of each season, the beautiful peaks, the emerald green lake surface, and the combination of autumn leaves.
These rich natural and tourist resources attract many tourists and provide opportunities for investment in the tourism industry.

The charm of being a food capital

It is also known as the "Food Capital'' and has many brand-name agricultural products that are proud of the nation, such as Yonezawa beef, cherries, and La France. Wine and wineries in Yamagata, the kingdom of fruit trees, are also gaining popularity. There is also a wide selection of local cuisine, so you can enjoy the heart-warming flavors of the region.
The appeal of these foods can be said to be a big attraction not only for tourists but also for immigrants.
