Aomori (city, prefecture)
Refers to both Aomori City and Aomori Prefecture in northern Honshu, Japan.
Aomori is famous as a producer of apples.
I'm going on a business trip to Aomori next month.
Standard kanji spelling for the place name.
The port was named 青森 after a small, conspicuously wooded hill that served as a landmark for ships; the name was later extended to the city and prefecture.
