Activity itinerary

Aomori Cruise Terminal
  • 5m
The trip begins at the Aomori Port International Cruise Terminal in Aomori City. We will visit the port in the morning for pickup. Please let us know if you have a preference for the meeting place!
Sannai-Maruyama Site
  • 50m
  • Admission ticket included
The site is a large settlement site dating from the early to middle Jomon Period (ca. 3,900-2,200 BC, ca. 5,900-4,200 years ago from the present), with many pit and dugout pillar building sites, fillings, and graves of adults and children, as well as a large amount of earthenware, stone tools, valuable wood products, bone and horn products, etc., having been excavated. In May 2003, 1958 of the excavated artefacts were designated as National Important Cultural Properties of Japan, and in July 2021, the "Jomon Monuments of Hokkaido and the Northeast" including the Sannai-Maruyama Site were registered as a World Cultural Heritage site. Known as a place where visitors can experience the "mura (village)" of the Jomon period
Showa Daibutsu
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket included
The Showa Daibutsu, located at Seiryuji Temple in Aomori, is a majestic 21-meter bronze seated Buddha—the largest of its kind in Japan. Comparable in scale to the Great Buddhas of Nara and Kamakura, it has become a modern cultural landmark of northern Japan. The temple grounds also feature a five-story pagoda and a serene garden, offering beautiful scenery in every season: cherry blossoms in spring, lush greenery in summer, colourful foliage in autumn, and a tranquil snowy landscape in winter.
Hirosaki Castle
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Hirosaki Castle is the northernmost existing castle tower in Japan and is designated as a National Important Cultural Property. Aside from the castle tower, the park's gates, bridges, and moat are full of historical atmosphere.
Hirosaki Park (Pass by)
Hirosaki Castle is located in Hirosaki Park. The castle tower, turrets, gates, and other remains from the feudal era still remain as historical sites. There are few examples in Japan of a castle that has been opened to the public as a park while retaining its original appearance. It is also known as a cherry blossom viewing spot in spring.
Aomori Cruise Terminal
  • 25m
We will return to the Aomori port and finish the tour.
