Iwate tour packages suit travellers who want a quieter side of Japan. It is the country’s second largest prefecture, with mountains, folklore villages and a dramatic Pacific coast. The UNESCO-listed temples of Hiraizumi, including the gilded hall of Chuson-ji, recall a golden age of the twelfth century. Morioka is known for its three noodle dishes, and Tono preserves the legends of kappa water sprites. The Sanriku coast has recovered from the 2011 tsunami and offers fresh seafood and scenic cliffs. Spring and autumn are the best seasons.
