#shopping #100 ways to travel When traveling to Aomori, if you want to buy souvenirs and specialties in one stop, the first choice is of course the "A-Factory", which is a minute's walk from Aomori Station.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see the fresh food market produced in Aomori Prefecture. All the specialty agricultural products of Aomori are available. There are all kinds of apple products, from apple juice, apple pie, apple cider, to apple gift boxes, and even white rice. It’s quite a nice place to shop.

Aomori City, Aomori Prefecture. A-FACTORY is a 2-minute walk from JR Aomori Station. It is a stylish building with a factory-like image, and contains various shops and restaurants. You can enjoy local specialties, crafts, and gourmet food. In addition, there are many souvenirs to choose from, such as agricultural products, marine products, alcohol, and sweets. They also sold locally produced eggs and cute miscellaneous goods. Events and workshops are also held, so you can experience local culture and traditions. I went there after 4:30 p.m. on a weekday, but there were many tourists. I bought cookies as a souvenir. There are so many types that it's hard to choose. There were many delicious apple sweets. This time, I couldn't take my time to look around, but next time I would like to go and enjoy the food and gelato at my leisure.

Last year, we got a great deal on the weekday-only unlimited-ride pass "Travel Weekdays!

Kyun Pass is a weekday-only ticket from 2025.2/13 to 2025.3/13, and you must apply two weeks before your departure date.

You can reserve two reserved seats for one day, and up to four reserved seats for two days.

I used unreserved seats on Tsugaru 3 from Akita and Yamabiko 74 from Morioka to Omiya. Weekdays However, the Tsugaru was very popular. If you want to use the unreserved seats on the Tsugaru, I recommend lining up at the platform early. Yamabiko 74 departed from Morioka, so the train was pretty empty on the way to Sendai. This trip was a whirlwind schedule with only about two hours in each city, but it was a very happy trip as I got to visit Akita, Aomori, and Iwate, which I've always wanted to visit. I'm grateful to my friends who accompanied me on my whirlwind day trip. Please use this as reference for your own travels. - - ...

I think Aomori is a very romantic place. I decided to come here. I flew from Hong Kong to Narita, and took JR from Narita Airport to Aomori. It took more than 10 hours to get to Aomori. It was my first time to Aomori, my first time to see snow, and my first time to eat apple pie. I felt really happy staying there for 4 days. Aomori apples are really delicious. Environment/

#AugustDestinations2024 #IndoorDestinations #100TravelWays I have to praise this complex shopping mall for being really fun to shop in. After entering, it is quite comfortable to shop in the space with a height of over 6 meters without feeling oppressive. The whole mall is divided into two main areas. The first half is for various locally produced goods, while the second half is for light meals and drinks. We ordered the popular limited edition apple ice cream combination, apple pie and coffee as a part of our experience. 🕰️Business hours: 9-5

A complex consisting of restaurants, shops and workshops, just a 2-3 minute walk from Aomori Station🍎 Aomori's specialties and souvenirs are lined up in a small space, so it's fun just to look at them😁 And here we had SKIP EGG's apple pie (¥500) and apple tea made only from apples (¥390)🍃 The shiny apple pie was full of apples and just the right amount of sweetness, and the dough was moist and crispy and delicious🤤 The apple tea was not as sweet as I expected, and the packaging was cute, so I was very satisfied🍎🫶 This A-FACTORY is right in front of the beach in front of Aomori Station, and the location was refreshing and very good⛱️ The "AOMORI" monument is on the beach, so it was a first for me to see snow piled up on the sand, and it was fun to walk there🤭 #TohokuTourism #Gourmet #GourmetTrip

#2024wish Aomori is known for its apple production, and the A-Factory showcases this, offering hundreds of apple based products and souvenirs to buy. It’s only a 5-minutes walk from the train station 🚉 It’s actually very very nice to walk around simply because the space is huge! The apple gelato 🍨 is very tasty and refreshing. In 2024, I want to visit Japan 🇯🇵 again !

#2024wish A-FACTORY is a popular market-style shopping center that sells local products such as sweets, processed goods, fresh vegetables and fruits. It is located a short 1-minute walk from Aomori Station. With Aomori as the Japan’s top apple producer, of course we had to try the apple cidre (cider) produced onsite using Aomori grown apples. We could also join the tour to observe the process of cidre production through glass windows in the factory. In 2024, I want to visit Aomori in Japan 🇯🇵 again !
