    We hope you enjoyed exploring Northern Japan with us! Where would you like to visit when you’re up in Tohoku next?
    P.S. If you’re ever at Tokyo Station, be sure to check out the JAPAN RAIL CAFE!

      I’ve been around the tohoku area, but I think Akita isn’t as featured as much as their counterparts. I’m guilty since I’ve never really been there except a ski resort.
