Hachinohe

Hachinohe combines the working energy of a major fishing port with the open, wind-shaped character of Japan’s Pacific coast, reflecting its position on southeastern Aomori Prefecture. The city is known for the early-morning Mutsu Minato market, where seafood and local produce underline the sea’s importance to daily life. Along the nearby Tanesashi Coast, grassy headlands meet the Pacific within Sanriku Fukko National Park, while Kabushima Shrine is associated with a black-tailed gull colony that returns there to nest. Hachinohe also hosts the Hachinohe Sansha Taisai, a summer festival distinguished by elaborate floats and processions.
