Skunk cabbage from Sadato Plateau

In the mountains of Tono, where winters are long, the white fairy skunk cabbage, which heralds the arrival of late spring, displays its dainty flowers from mid- to late April every year. It is located in the wetlands of the Sadato Plateau national forest northeast of Tono, and is in full bloom over an area of ​​approximately 1.7 hectares. Best time to see: April 15th to April 25th

Kuratsubo soba

This soba is made with ``Kuretsubo Kabu,'' which was praised as a condiment for soba, sashimi, and yakiniku in the gourmet manga ``Oishinbo Volume 32.'' The unique spiciness that is different from chili peppers and wasabi brings out the soba noodles.

Roadside station “Miyamori”

It is located in the center of Miyamori Town, halfway along National Route 283, which connects the inland and coastal areas of Iwate Prefecture. The ``Fureai Information Plaza'' inside the roadside station sells agricultural products and wasabi processed products produced in the town, and provides information on sightseeing spots and events in the town. The rest corner and restrooms are available 24 hours a day. Adjacent to a shopping center, nearby is the Meganebashi Bridge, which is reminiscent of Kenji Miyazawa's ``Night on the Galaxy Railway'' and has become a symbol of the town.
