Morioka City, the prefectural capital of Iwate, is a city where history, culture, and cuisine converge. The city center features the remnants of the feudal domain era, such as Morioka Castle Ruin Park (Iwate Park), set against the magnificent backdrop of Mount Iwate, along with nostalgic, retro streets along the picturesque Nakatsu River. Historical buildings like the Iwate Bank Red Brick Building, which is a National Important Cultural Property, are also highlights. Gastronomically, the "Three Great Noodles of Morioka"—Wanko Soba, Morioka Reimen (cold noodles), and Morioka Jajamen—are famous. The city is also known for its connections to the beloved poet Kenji Miyazawa.
