Aomori Tsutanuma

Located in Towada City, Aomori, the millennium-old hot spring 'Tsuta Onsen' is surrounded by several mysterious swamps known as 'Tsuta Seven Swamps.' These include Tsutanuma, Kagaminuma, Tsukinuma, Naganuma, Suganuma, Hyōtanuma, and Akanuma, with Tsutanuma being the most famous due to its large area. Tsutanuma is surrounded by native beech forests, and every year the autumn foliage reflects on the swamp, attracting many visitors. The autumn leaves at Tsutanuma are not just beautiful; the 'Tsutanuma Morning Glow' requires three key factors: the best time to view the autumn leaves from October to early November, arriving at Tsutanuma before sunrise, and clear, cloudless weather to witness the 'Tsutanuma Morning Glow.'
