ASPAM, shaped like an equilateral triangle, is a prominent landmark and tourism hub in Aomori City. The facility features the "360° Digital Theater," which offers an immersive experience of Aomori's stunning nature and culture, and the 13th-floor "Observation Deck," providing panoramic views of Mutsu Bay and the cityscape. It is a popular attraction to easily enjoy Aomori's scenery.
Striking architecture: The unique equilateral-triangle building (inspired by the letter "A" for Aomori) on the waterfront offers fantastic photo opportunities.
Immersive experience: The "360° Digital Theater" allows visitors to visually and audibly experience Aomori's festivals and nature, transcending language barriers.
Breathtaking views: From the 13th-floor observation deck (51 meters high), visitors can enjoy panoramic views of Aomori City, Mutsu Bay, and on clear days, the Shimokita and Tsugaru Peninsulas.
Story of the Experience: The journey into Aomori’s magnificent nature and culture begins the moment you step into ASPAM, the gateway to the prefecture. Visitors first immerse themselves in Aomori's appeal through the theater, and then ascend to the top-floor observation deck to look out over the actual lands and seas they just experienced, completing a dynamic narrative.
