Located on the northwest coast of Honshu, facing the Sea of Japan, Akita is renowned for the Ou mountains, hot springs ('onsen'), pure sake and a strong sense of tradition. The natural beauty here is ideal for unwinding and sampling the Japanese art of bathing. Inland, visitors can explore the town of Kakunodate and its well-preserved samurai district, where historic homes and cherry-lined streets hark back to Japan’s feudal past. From samurai history to scenic countryside and delicious local cuisine washed down with the purest local sake, Akita is a real taste of Japan.
