Yuza

Yuza is located in the extreme northwest of Yamagata Prefecture, bordering on Akita Prefecture to the north and the Sea of Japan on the west. It is situated at the northern end of the Shōnai Plain, with the Gekkō River running across the town. Mount Chōkai, which has the second highest elevation in the Tohoku region, is on the northern border. Sandy beaches stretch along the coastline in the southern part of the town, whereas the northern coastline is more rugged due to reefs formed by lava flows from Mt. Chōkai. Part of the town is within the borders of the Chōkai Quasi-National Park.
