On July 13, Aomori-Inakadate-mura declared the best time to see the first rice field art.

The rice field art of the same village that draws pictures and letters with 13 kinds of rice in 7 colors. In the same village, rice field art is held at two venues every year, and this year, the first rice field art is based on the theme of "Yamatano Orochi and Susano Onomikoto", and the second rice field art is to draw Momotaro and demons from the fairy tale "Momotaro".

“The 1st rice field art is the finest of the past works,” says Takatoshi Asari of the Village Planning and Tourism Division. The number of “points” that divide the rice-colored areas is the highest ever, 14,200. "At the beginning it was 17,000, but it was too small to reduce it," he said. The highest number so far was 12,000 "Oran and Hollywood Stars" in 2013.

Nozomi Mizusawa, a 6th grade elementary student who came from Osaka as a parent and child, jumped over and tried to shoot, saying “it doesn't fit in the camera. Mother Yomi said, “I was impressed by the delicate details that I couldn't think of as a rice field, but when I heard that the villagers also thought about the design, I got goose bumps. It was nice to be able to see it when it was in full bloom.” Show me.
