Kaminoyama City Sightseeing Fruit Orchard
One of the pleasures of traveling in Yamagata is being able to pick fruits in different parts of the prefecture. Bountiful harvests can be enjoyed in each season at fruit orchards. Yamagata cherries make up about 70% of total domestic production volume for cherries. With their bright ruby color, these cherries are also known as the gemstones of the fruit orchard. The orchard bustles with large crowds who come to pick cherries from the beginning of summer throughout the season.
