The field of rape blossoms at the foot of Mt. Iwaki in Ajigasawa, Aomori, is now in full bloom.

The field of rape blossoms in the Ajigasawa/Yamadano district has seen an increase in the number of visitors in recent years as it is possible to take pictures with Mt. Iwaki on the remaining snow. The rape blossoms are planted in a different location each year to prevent repeated cropping failures in the potatoes. This year, about 10 hectares were planted along the town road Hokihara Tateishi Line (former Yamanami Road).

According to the policy promotion section of Ajigasawa Town, this year's rape blossoms are expected to bloom more than 10 days earlier than usual, and the best time to see them is expected to continue until Golden Week. The person in charge said, "The free parking lot is kindly used by the owner. Please refrain from parking on the street or entering the fields, and please observe the rules and manners when viewing."

A man in his 30s who came from Hirosaki said with a smile, "I'm glad I was able to see the pleasant scenery. It's a perfect place to stop by after a short drive."
