Itomori: A Combination of Aogashima, Nagano, and Gifu


For those feeling particularly adventurous, Aogashima Island is another spot on the visit list. To reach this island, which is where Mitsuha’s fictional hometown of Itomori is based on, you will have to do some island hopping from Tokyo. Take a plane from Haneda airport khổng lồ the island of Hachijojima, & from there you will need khổng lồ ride a helicopter to get khổng lồ this island (reservations needed). The interesting thing about Aogashima is that despite being far away from Tokyo, it’s still considered as a part of Tokyo! Could this be why the protagonists were connected?


Some would recall a giant lake in Mitsuha’s home of Itomori. Along with Aogashima, Itomori Lake was also based off another location: Lake Suwa in Nagano prefecture. The fictional town of Itomori in Your Name was located in Gifu Prefecture- but you won’t find Itomori there! Instead you’ll find the town that Itomori was based on, Hida City. A few more notable spots here include the Hida-Furukawa Station và Hida-sannogu Hie-jinja Shrine, where Itomori’s shrine “Miyamizu Shrine” was based on.


Lastly, we will go back Tokyo for what is probably the most iconic spot of the movie. The stairs leading lớn Yotsuya Suga Shrine was both used in the promotional art & the final scene of the movie where older Taki & Mitsuha finally come across each other to, of course, ask each other’s name.
