Rural views/Сельские пейзажи

Most of Aomori Prefecture looks like the pictures below. There are no large buildings, life is slow. The area is famous for its agriculture, rice and apples. It is almost the harvest time and the fields are turning pretty yellow color, the days are not as hot, the rain season is about to start.

Практически вся префектура Аомори выглядит вот так. Здесь нет высоких зданий, жизнь идет небыстрым, размеренным чередом. Префектура знаменита на всю Японию (и не только) своим рисом и своими яблоками. Уже почти что время урожая и поля потихоньку начинают желтеть. Уже не так жарко, скоро наступит сезон осенних дождей.
