Nyoirinji Temple

Ezuriko Tumulus Group

A group of ancient tombs built from the late 7th century to the early 8th century. There are approximately 120 round tombs with diameters of 6 to 15 meters, and many magatama beads, kiriko beads, warabi-te swords, straight swords, horse harnesses, etc. have been unearthed. Among them, the gold-layered glass beads are valuable excavated items of which there are only a few examples in Japan, leading to speculation that there was trade with the continent.

Kitakami City Park “Tenshochi”

Along the Kitakami River, from the foot of Sango Bridge, there is an approximately 2km line of cherry blossom trees that has been selected as one of the ``Top 100 Cherry Blossom Spots.'' There are 10,000 cherry trees and 100,000 azaleas in the park, which soothe the hearts of visitors. In addition, there is a rest house modeled after the rice storehouse of the Nanbu clan, a monument to the Kitakami Yokyoku song, a restored large sailing ship of the Nanbu clan's ship "Hirata-bune" in the Kitakami River cove, and 29 historical buildings such as old folk houses, merchant houses, and samurai residences. There is also the ``Michinoku Folk Village,'' a relocated and restored building, the ``Hachiro Sato Memorial Museum,'' the ``Toneyama Mitsuto Memorial Museum,'' promenades, and cycling paths, which can be enjoyed throughout the year.
