Yamagata Area Map

In Yamagata, as the name suggests, mountains occupy 85% of the whole area. Among the mountains flows the Mogami River all the way through to the Sea of Japan where many high quality marine products are landed. Everyone knows that Yamagata is a prefecture of the largest harvest of cherry in Japan, but it’s not the only specialty Yamagata offers. Yamagata also produces branded pear “La France,” water melons, and tasty high-class Yonezawa beef. You can take your time to travel around many historic temples as well as ease your fatigue at quiet hot springs.
