My Recommendations for Local Attractions and Must-See Local Tourism Information

The charm of Ichinoseki City is that it has two scenic spots, Geibi Gorge to the east and Genbikei Gorge to the west. Higashi-no-Geibi Kei Boat Boat Cruise is the only place in Japan that operates a round-trip rowing service, and is a place you can enjoy even if you visit in spring, summer, fall, or winter. Genbikei to the west is not only famous for its beautiful valley, but also for its flying dumplings. Both are tourist destinations that we can introduce to you with confidence. It is also a place where the food is delicious, and the most recommended is the rice cake dishes. We have established the Mochi Kaido in Ichinoseki and Hiraizumi, and are working to provide hospitality through the local mochi culture.

Short Message

The southern part of Iwate Prefecture is a place with many tourist spots. I think it is difficult to introduce and explain this to customers. I would like to provide my own warm and flavorful hospitality that suits the climate of Iwate. Iwate is a great place, so please come and visit us.
