Morioka Town Walk 2023 Special Feature

Iwate Kita-Sanriku travel special feature

Morioka City was featured in the New York Times article ``52 Places to Visit in 2023''*, and a temporary tourist information center has been set up inside Morioka Station, creating a welcoming atmosphere. This time, we would like to introduce the northern part of the Sanriku coast facing the Pacific Ocean, which is about 1.5 to 2 hours by car from Morioka. In addition to Sanriku's beautiful natural scenery, we have also covered gourmet spots that have not been introduced much before. It's also a good idea to plan your schedule around festivals and events. Please use this information to plan your trip from Morioka to Sanriku.
