The cherry blossoms here are super dense and plentiful. The whole area turns into a breathtaking sea of flowers. At night, you can enjoy the illuminated cherry blossoms too. It's packed with people all day long who come to see the sakura.

Omazaki
Located on the Shimokita Peninsula in Aomori, Oma Town is famous as a “tuna town” where top-grade bluefin tuna is landed. Facing the Tsugaru Strait, Omazaki is a cape at the northernmost tip of Honshu. Shioshubi Misaki in Hakodate, Hokkaido, is 17.5 km away across the strait. On clear days, you may even see the Hakodate coastline and Goryokaku Tower beyond Bentenjima Island in the foreground.
I thought the northernmost point would feel more spectacular, but it was just okay. It was basically a monument and the seaside, so coming all the way here just for this was a bit disappointing.

Mount Yotei
In the southern Shiribeshi Region, Mt. Yotei stands 1898m above sea level. Its beautiful cone shape like Mt. Fuji’s has brought the name Ezo Fuji since ancient times. Located at the western edge of Shikotsu-Toya National Park, the perfectly cone-shaped figure is counted in Japan’s 100 best mountains and serves as a symbol of the Niseko Area itself.
Mount Yotei, with its volcanic shape and beautiful surroundings, always leaves a strong impression on visitors. If you love nature and a peaceful lifestyle, this is definitely a place worth visiting.

Takasakiyama Natural Zoological Garden
This zoological garden is located at the foot of 2,060-foot Mount Takasaki, next to the Umitamago aquarium. Opened in 1953 and now approaching its 70th anniversary, it remains popular with tourists as a place to observe wild monkeys in their natural environment.
There are wild monkeys everywhere, just living naturally in the park. It's really cute and fun to watch them eat. You can take a cable car up and down the mountain, which is pretty convenient.
