Aomori Prefecture Tourist Center, Tourism office in Yasukata district, Aomori, Japan
The 15-story Aomori Prefecture Tourist Center stands as a triangular structure on the Aomori Waterfront, offering views across Mutsu Bay and surrounding mountains.
The center opened its doors in April 1986, designed by the architectural firm Nikken Sekkei to serve as a central hub for regional tourism information.
The building houses exhibitions about local traditions, including displays about the Nebuta Festival, which features illuminated float parades through Aomori streets.
Visitors can access tourist information services, regional product shops, and observation areas through multiple elevators operating from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM daily.
The structure's distinctive triangular shape represents Mount Hakkoda, while its blue-tinted windows reflect the waters of Mutsu Bay throughout the day.
