Japan Off The Beaten Path: Autumn In Akita Prefecture | Japan Travel Guide
Japan Off The Beaten Path is a new series on my channel, where I show you more of the unknown areas/prefectures in Japan and encourage you to travel and visit areas other than the common places such as Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka.
In this first episode, we visit and explore around Akita Prefecture in the Tohoku region of northern Honshu, the main island of Japan.
I came here during Autumn(end of October), which is the perfect time to come to see the autumn foliage!
ITINERARY
More info:
Things to DO
-Akita Nairiku Line
-Odate Hachiko Statue
-Nanataki Waterfall
-Lake Towada
・Hakka Lookout
・Blue Marine Cafe Boat Rental
-Okuoku Hachikurou Onsen
-Korakukan Theater
Things to EAT
-Hokushu Club (Kiritampo-nabe stew)
Signature dish in Akita
-Tonkatsu Kuritai (Katsu-curry-ramen)
Only found in Kosaka(town in Akita)
-Hinai Ya (ate Hinai Jidori chicken Oyakodon)
Many things in Odate use the famous hinai free range chicken so make sure to try it out.
-Hanazen (Tori-meshi Bento)
Check out more of Akita here:
As for transportation, it takes 4 hours to get from Tokyo station to Akita station via the Akita Komachi Bullet Train.
It costs around ¥17,000($160 USD) however if you have the JR pass you just have to pay the small fee of the reserved seat on the Shinkansen(all seats are reserved).
Or if you are going up to Hokkaido or coming back down from Hokkaido, you can change at the Shin-Aomori station and take the local JR train down to Odate station.
Going back to Tokyo from Shin-Aomori station is also possible by taking the Hayabusa bullet train. (Around ¥17,000)
Even though Akita is in Japan, each prefecture is so unique in it's own way - I learned so much from this trip and could see a different side of Japan.. I hope to share this kind of Japan more and more with you through my channel :)
and lastly, a big big big thank you to my friends at Akita Inu Tourism for showing me around Akita!!!! Couldn't have done this video without you!

From Tokyo to Akita Prefecture: The Best Authentic Japan Experience
Japan is an amazing country and rightfully so on many people’s bucket list. Many people limit their travels to the major cities of Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto but if you want to truly experience a more authentic Japan you need to visit regional Japan. We travelled to the Akita prefecture and regional Ugo town.
In this snowy regional Japanese town, we lived a truly authentic Japanese lifestyle and had many traditional Japanese experiences. We learnt how to make Soba noodles from a Soba noodle master, we danced the famous Bon Odori dance, had Japanese language classes at a Japanese primary school, lived the temple life with meditation, calligraphy and tea ceremonies, and learnt how to make mochi and tempura from scratch. Join us for the ultimate Japanese cultural experience!

All about Aomori - Must see spots in Aomori | Japan Travel Guide
Area Characteristics
Aomori Prefecture which is at the northern tip of the main island of Honshu is surrounded on three sides by ocean and once you cross Tsugaru Strait, you will come to Hokkaido up north. It is one of Japan’s areas of heavy snowfall and even in the summer, it is rare for temperatures to go beyond 30 degrees Celsius. Beginning with the virgin forest expanse of Shirakami-Sanchi which has been recognized as a World Heritage site, the prefecture has many examples of nature including Lake Towada, the Hakkoda Mountains and the Shimokita Peninsula. The Seikan Tunnel which links Honshu with Hokkaido is the world’s 2nd longest tunnel next to Europe’s Gotthard Base Tunnel in Switzerland.
Major Sites
Hirosaki Castle is one of the symbolic spots in Aomori. Between late April and early May, many visitors come and appreciate the cherry blossoms at the Hirosaki Sakura Festival held at Hirosaki Park. If you want to fully savor Mother Nature, then places such as Shirakami-Sanchi, Oirase Stream, Lake Towada and the Hakkoda Mountains are popular. The Aomori Nebuta Festival is held in August but the Nebuta Warasse Museum which is dedicated to nebuta floats is open all year round. There are also plenty of other sightseeing sites including Mt. Osore which is known as one of Japan’s 3 Great Sacred Grounds alongside Mt. Hiei and Mt. Koya, Furofushi Onsen which has an attractive open-air bath alongside the coast, the Sannai-Maruyama site which is the largest archaeological site from the Jomon Era, and the Aomori Museum of Art.
Food
One famous product in Aomori is its apples which boast the largest shipping rate in Japan. For regional cuisine, there is senbei jiru (rice cracker soup), hittsumi soup, and jappa jiru which is a fish dish. There are also other popular dishes such as kaiyaki miso which goes well with rice, maguro don, Towada barayaki which is known to be the soul food of Towada, and a clear soup with sea urchin and abalone known as ichigo ni.
Transportation
It’s common to head for Aomori Prefecture from Tokyo by Shinkansen (Bullet Train), so a ride on the Tohoku Shinkansen will take a minimum of 3 hours to reach Aomori Station. Driving through the prefecture by rental car is convenient.
Accommodations
There are accommodations available near Aomori Station which is a handy base for sightseeing, Hirosaki located near Shirakami-Sanchi, the Lake Towada vicinity, Hachinohe and other areas.

The Other Hachiko?
That's right! If you thought that Shibuya was the only Hachiko statue ... well, it's not. The other is in ODATE, AKITA in the north of Honshu Island and it was made around the same time at the other statue. The Odate Hachiko depicts a younger dog with pointy ears. The one in Shibuya shows Hachiko's last year.
WHERE IS IT?

1 Chome-3-1 Onarichō, Ōdate-shi, Akita-ken 017-0044

The Akita Inu also has its roots in Odate and the statue is worth a stop if you're in the area.

Visiting the Samurai Residence District in Kakunodate, Akita
The Kakunodate Samurai Residence District is most popular in the autumn with the beautiful fall colors and in the spring because of the weeping cherry trees. In fact, it's beautiful all year round, and whenever you happen to be in the area, it's worth visiting. There are two resdence-complexes that have become museums and charge a modest admission, the Aoyagi and Ishiguro houses, and four other smaller ones that are free to explore, though offer limited access. The streets themselves are beautiful in that area as well.
Location:
Enishi doesn't have an official English website, but is a great guest house to stay in while you're in the area. It's 7,000 yen per person per night, which is roughly $60 or so. You can email the owner at enishi.kakunodate@gmail.com or send her a direct message on Instagram. (Also, give her a follow on Instagram- @akitainu_kakunodate)
Location:
The sunken forest that appears this time of year is best viewed from this bridge. (Pin dropped at best place to park your car.)
