Built in 1910, Kourakukan is a theater located in Kosakamachi, Akita Prefecture. While there are several theaters that remain as Important Cultural Properties, Kourakukan is one of the few that still hosts regular performances and is actively used today. "A building truly comes alive when it's in use." Although I can't include photos from the performances due to copyright restrictions, it's heartwarming to know that even grandparents have their favorite performers! This facility is a source of enjoyment for the townspeople—"that's why we can preserve it." Overall, it was a place that left a positive impression.

Akita dogs are really cute. These little ones also greeted us cutely lined up at the 'Roadside Station Kazuno Antler's showcase.' When you come to Akita, you can find such small moments of warmth everywhere.

A small path where I used to play with my friends when I was little. As this season arrives, I find myself nostalgically drawn back here. The cherry blossoms have always been here. That's how I feel.

"We are all connected!" The wrapped train of the Akita Nairiku Line seems to echo Shinnosuke's voice. Father's hometown, Akita; mother's Kumamoto; and now living in Saitama— the lands of our family are depicted on a single train car. "The tracks and the bonds are connected straight, aren't they?" After a long time, my heart warmed with nostalgia, and I pointed my camera. Why not come visit "Akita" on the Akita Nairiku Line?

It is the Ruins of the Castle Turrets of Kubota Castle in Senshu Park in Akita City, Akita Prefecture.

At Ani River Park in Kitaakita City, Akita Prefecture. There are many places in Tohoku that are famous for their beautiful cherry blossoms, but there are also magnificent rows of cherry blossom trees here. In a quiet country town surrounded by mountains, you can enjoy the cherry blossoms while listening to the sound of the river flowing. Famous spots are good, but the cherry blossoms seen in a quiet place where there are not many people are also exceptional.
