Takko
Takko straddles the Mabechi River in southeastern Aomori Prefecture, and its valley has concentrated farmland, roads and settlements between wooded hills. The town stands near the border with Iwate Prefecture, in an inland part of northern Honshu far from Aomori’s Pacific coast. Agriculture remains central to local life, above all Takko garlic, a regional product known throughout Japan. Fields and small communities continue along side valleys, while forested ridges form a clear boundary around the cultivated land. Takko is a working agricultural town whose character is defined by the Mabechi basin and the surrounding uplands.

Aomori Prefecture occupies the northern tip of Honshu in Japan. Bordered by the Sea of Japan, the Pacific Ocean and Mutsu Bay, it faces Hokkaido across the Tsugaru Strait. The Hakkoda Mountains bring a strongly seasonal, snow-prone interior, while the broad Tsugaru Plain is central to the prefecture’s renowned apple growing. Aomori City hosts the Nebuta Matsuri each August, when enormous illuminated floats are paraded through the streets. The Jomon settlement at Sannai-Maruyama adds another dimension to a region shaped by maritime routes, farming and northern weather.
