Nonai (野内村, Nonai-mura) was a village located in Higashitsugaru District in central Aomori Prefecture, Japan. The former town was best known as a shukuba along the Matsumaedō and the site of an onsen town, Asamushi Onsen. It is now a neighborhood of the city, Aomori.

History

Nonai was created by a merger of the villages of Asamushi and Kugurizaka on April 1, 1889. The village was annexed by Aomori on October 1, 1962.

These were the neighboring municipalities of Nonai just before its incorporation into Aomori.[1]

Matsumaedō – a sub-route of the Ōshū Kaidō; today it exists roughly along National Route 4. The old route, signed as Aomori Prefecture Route 259, is still the main road through Nonai. Route 4 largely bypasses the neighborhood.
