Center: Station-front Storehouse |
 |
| |
A traditional-style storehouse, located in front of Kakunodate Station, has
become Kakunodate’s Tourism Center. Just look for the white-walled building
on your right as you leave the station. Here you can find walking maps to the
Samurai District, guides to various places to dine, and information about local
hotels and inns. In addition, along with tourist pamphlets and maps, a video
highlighting the tourist sites of Akita is always playing.
The Center is open to the public for free and also offers places to
sit and rest, so feel free to stop by if you’re waiting for the next bus
or train, as well.
