Geography
At 44.9 km long, the Nakamura River flows in the west of Aomori Prefecture, on the island of Honshū, in Japan. It rises on the slopes of a wooded hill: Shiheimori (641.7 m), located in the west of the city of Hirosaki. Leaving Hirosaki, its course heads north, at the foot of the western slope of Mount Iwaki. It crosses, from south to north, the north of the town of Ajigasawa, before flowing into the Sea of Japan.

The Nakamura river watershed covers an area of 149 km2. Streams and rivers meandering on the western slope of the Iwaki volcano feed it.
