Many historical sites here are really well preserved. If you're traveling in Tohoku, you definitely shouldn't miss this World Heritage temple.

Hamanako Garden Park
Hamanako Garden Park is an urban park built on the site of the 2004 Hamanako Flower Expo. Located on a peninsula jutting into Lake Hamana, it features a beautiful location surrounded by the lake and rich nature.
The lakeside paths are really comfortable, perfect for walking or jogging. There are also plenty of rest spots along the way where you can take a break and enjoy the view.

Motsuji Temple
Motsuji Temple, designated by the government as both a Special Historic Site and a Special Place of Scenic Beauty, houses the foundation stones and other remains of many Buddhist buildings from the Heian period (794-1192).
There's a really beautiful Japanese garden inside the temple. Every autumn, lots of visitors come here to enjoy the scenery.
