Nemuro, Coastal city in eastern Hokkaido, Japan
Nemuro extends across 512 square kilometers of coastline featuring wetlands, forests, and numerous observation points for viewing diverse bird species throughout the year.
The settlement developed from fishing communities during the Meiji period and received city status in 1957 through the merger of Nemuro town and Wada village.
The Nemuro Kotohira Shrine Reitaisai stands as one of Hokkaido's three largest festivals, bringing residents together for traditional ceremonies and celebrations.
Visitors can reach Nemuro via the Nemuro Main Line railway or through Nakashibetsu Airport, with National Routes 44 and 243 providing road connections.
Cape Nosappu marks Japan's easternmost point, where observers can witness the country's first sunrise each morning across the Pacific Ocean.
