Kakuzuka Tumulus, a nationally designated historic site

Japanese style restaurant Ushi no Sato

Customers from all over the country can fully enjoy authentic Maezawa Beef. The ``Beef Full Course'' is popular because you can enjoy Maezawa beef in a variety of dishes at once, including steak (130g), shabu-shabu, beef steak nigiri, and beef steak sashimi.

Roadside station “Mizusawa”

Located at the foot of a bridge over the Kitakami River, this roadside station has a lawn and waterside plaza on the adjacent riverbed, making it perfect for walks, barbecues, and picnics. There is also a restaurant overlooking the river, a product store, and direct-from-the-farm products, and the rich ``sesame soft-serve ice cream'' made with local raw milk is popular in the special products corner. Other popular dishes include soba hatto and koji nanban.

Azalea of ​​Mount Kyozuka

Kyozukayama is said to have been Fujiwara Hidehira's sutra store in the old days, and at the top of the mountain there is a ``horseshoe stone'' where Minamoto Yoshitsune is said to have ridden his horse and made hoof prints. In addition, the view from the summit towards Hiraizumi and Maezawa is wonderful, with the Isawa alluvial fan spreading out from the Ou Mountains, the Shizui villages and countryside dotted there, and the Kitakami River that meanders slowly across the area. It is a famous place for azaleas that grow in clusters, and the best time to see them is late May.
