Daisen

Daisen lies along the Omono River in the Yokote Basin, where rice fields spread across an inland plain bordered by the mountains of Akita. The city includes Ōmagari, a district known across Japan for the National Fireworks Competition, held each August; the event has been staged here since 1910 and draws leading pyrotechnicians for carefully choreographed displays. Agriculture remains central to the area’s identity, and the plain changes markedly from snowbound winter to the green growing season. Ōmagari Station also links Daisen to the Akita Shinkansen and the Ōu Main Line. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of Akita Prefecture connects across northern Honshu.
