Aoimori Park

Acting as an urban green space in the city's dense administrative district, it features various themed landscapes.

[3] Aoimori Park is divided into a relaxation area, an arboretum of local symbolic trees, a playground, a flower garden, and a grass field.

Its parking lot is utilized during the annual Aomori Nebuta Matsuri and other special events, such as being a stop during the 2020 Summer Olympics torch relay.

It was first envisioned by planners as a 1.3 ha (3.2-acre) urban park on the former site of the Aomori Prefectural Central Hospital [ja].

On 19 November of the same year, planners decided to revise the initial plans for the park, expanding it to 1.6 ha (4.0 acres).
