Japan in a Nutshell
Jutting out of the northwestern most tip of Honshu is the Tsugaru Peninsula. Known for its majestic, winding roads and breathtaking sea views, the peninsula is a delight for nature loving travelers!
Tappizaki, or Cape Tappi, is also known for its magnificent views. This tip of the Tsugaru Peninsula has been featured in poems, stories, and songs for hundreds of years, and it is easy to see why! On a clear day, visitors can see the island of Hokkaido, which lies on the north side of the strait. The cape is beautiful in its own right, though, and provides picturesque settings in all seasons. In the spring, the hills are painted pink in hydrangeas, while autumn brings bright, red apples.
All in all, Tsugaru is an incomparable destination. For those who prefer “off-the-beaten-path” vacations, Aomori Prefecture and the Tsugaru Peninsula make for a unique cultural and nature-filled experience!
