- Akita Senboku-shi Kakunodatemachi
- A street in Tamachikamicho, Kakunodate-machi, Semboku City. This is the area where the retainers of the Satake clan, governors of the Akita domain, lived and the townscape appearance with its black wooden fences of the past has been preserved. There are lots of sights to take in while strolling down the street including samurai residences such as the Nishinomiya Residence or the Shinchosha Memorial Literature Museum built to honor Sato Giryo, founder of Shinchosha Publishing Co.
Akita Areas
Famed for its sake and samurai, Akita prefecture offers quintessential Japanese culture in a non-touristy setting. Alongside the celebrated rice paddies and historical sites of the region lies dramatic natural scenery in the form of the rugged coastline of the Oga Peninsula and the Dakigaeri Gorge, best visited in autumn, when the leaves begin to change color.
