The Tsugaru Railway Line runs retro-themed trains that reflect the charm of each season, making every journey a special experience. In summer, the train is adorned with furin - Japanese wind bells - that sway gently and fill the air with soft, tinkling sounds. As the old train travels through the scenic countryside, the soothing chime of the bells enhances the peaceful atmosphere onboard.
Aomori's most iconic summer festival features glowing nebuta floats and energetic haneto dancers who leap through illuminated parades and water processions.
A tiny railway at the eastern edge of Chiba, kept running by the rice crackers it sells - twenty minutes from the town to the Pacific, past cabbage fields.
Guardian shrine of Aomori dedicated to the Three Goddesses of Munakata, with a sacred spring and historic remains including haiku stones by Matsuo Basho.
