About
Located next to Aomori, Akita is a land known for its stunning natural beauty. You can enjoy the picturesque Lake Tazawa, Japan's deepest lake, and the rugged peaks of the Ouu Mountains. Akita is also famous for its hot springs, such as those in the serene Nyuto Onsen area, and the historic city of Kakunodate, renowned for its well-preserved samurai houses and cherry blossoms. Like its neighbor the prefecture also hosts many traditional festivals, like the Kanto Matsuri, where participants balance tall, lantern-lit poles, showcasing local craftsmanship and community spirit. An area rich in culture- it is the supposed home of legendary demons and ogres among other myths- Akita is a place that will surely capture your heart if you make it your next adventure destination.
