About Aomori: Though not a tourist hot-spot all year round, this capital city of Aomori Prefecture at the northern tip of Honshu attracts visitors with a collection of festivals, including Japan's biggest fire festival. When there is not a celebration to be had in this city right on Mutsu Bay, Aomori Museum of Art or Asamushi Onsen Hot Springs resort is a couple of places you can seek out.
