Ichinohe combines a quiet rural character with an important place on northern Japan’s rail network in a way that reflects its position in Iwate Prefecture. The town lies along the Mabechi River in the inland reaches of northeastern Honshu, while Ichinohe Station is served by the Tohoku Shinkansen and the Iwate Ginga Railway. Its leading cultural site is the Goshono Jomon Archaeological Site, preserving traces of a large Jomon-period settlement and included within the UNESCO-listed Jomon Prehistoric Sites in Northern Japan. Farming, river valleys and sharply marked seasons shape the rhythm of daily life here. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of northern Iwate.
