There are statues of the goddesses of the four seasons on the bridge. It’s actually not very long to walk across, and it makes for some really distinctive photos.

The Aizu Bukeyashiki - Samurai Residence
Located near Higashiyama Onsen, this large-scale historical museum park features the restored residence of Saigo Tanomo, who was a Karo officer in the Aizu domain, surrounded by relocated and restored traditional buildings and a museum.
It’s absolutely worth coming during cherry blossom season. The classic samurai residence buildings with the cherry trees in full bloom feel so quintessentially Japanese, and every photo turns out great.
The lunch set meal was just the right portion, and I got to try local Aizu cuisine. -

Gono no yakata - Northern Culture Museum
This museum preserves and exhibits the former residence and garden of the Ito family, which prospered as the largest landowner in Echigo during the Meiji period.
It was absolutely gorgeous when the Somei Yoshino and weeping cherry blossoms were blooming at the same time. I originally came just to see the cherry blossoms, but the architecture and garden were amazing too.

Sado Gold Mine
Established in 1601, this mine operated for 388 years extracting and producing gold and silver ore. The total length of the sprawling gold mine is approximately 400km, earning it the title of Japan's largest gold and silver mine. In total numbers the mine has yielded a colossal 78 tons of gold and 2,330 tons of silver, hurtling it to its top-notch status of Japan’s largest gold and silver mine.
Sado Gold Mine felt even more historic than I expected. It was nice and cool inside the tunnels, and the old gold-mining models and recreated scenes really stood out. The lighting and sound effects made it feel very immersive.
