- Yamagata Mogami-gun Tozawamura Furukuchi Tsuchiyu
- This forest is located in the Furukuchi Tsuchiyu, Tozawa Village, Mogami County. It is densely populated by Tsuchiyu Japanese cedars, which are abundant along the Mogami River. The complex forks and curves of the trunks of these enormous trees, which are said to be over 1,000 years old, create a wondrous view worthy of the forest’s name.

枝分かれした杉の木がいくつも立っていて、本当に幻想的です。 幹が裂けたものや、穴の開いたものなど、見ていて飽きません。 森自体はウッドチップで整備されていますが、国道から細い砂利の林道を3キロぼど進む必要がります。 基本すれ違いができないので車では行かない方が良いです。 出かける前に土湯沢林道で通行可能かチェックしましょう。 私が言ったのは、平日の昼頃でしたが、車３台、バイク１台と出会いました...

- Kosugi no Osugi (Totoro Tree)
- Travel / Tourism
- Yamagata Pref. Mogamigunsakegawamura Magarikawa
- This 1,000-year-old cedar tree is a natural treasure of Sakegawa Village, and is also known as the Totoro Tree because of its similarity to the Studio Ghibli Movie “My Neighbor Totoro”. This massive tree is roughly 6.3 meters around the trunk, 17 meters around the branches and 20 meters tall and has been a sacred tree since ancient times, with the mountain god worshiped at the base of the tree. The shape of the two branches from the top of the tree have led to it also being known as “the married couple cedar” and the “marriage cedar”.

Yamagata Areas
Although often overlooked, Yamagata prefecture by no means lacks appeal: the Yamadera temple trail through the mountains, deliciously tender Yonezawa wagyu, and over 100 steaming hot springs, most notably Zao Onsen, await visitors. When winter comes, the snowcapped peaks become dotted with skiers by day and onsen-goers by night, while summer brings the celebration of juicy Yamagata cherries.
