Akanko Onsen
Lake Akan is known as a natural habitat of marimo, a Special Natural Monument of Japan. On its lakeshore sits Akanko Onsen, the leading hot spring resort area in eastern Hokkaido with a history of over 100 years. A hot spring town stretches along the shore of Lake Akan, lined with around 20 ryokan, hotels, and guesthouses. Many hot spring facilities face the lake, and their location is outstanding, offering panoramic views of Lake Akan and Mt. Oakan from the baths and guest rooms.
The hot spring water has a smooth, silky feel that’s really nice to soak in. With the mist outside and the lake view, it honestly feels like being in a commercial.
There’s also a shopping street nearby with some Ainu-related souvenirs, and it feels very safe and pleasant for an evening walk. -
Roppongi Hills
This multipurpose commercial complex opened as a Roppongi landmark in 2003. In the middle of Roppongi Hills stands Mori Tower, a 54-story skyscraper office building rising 238 meters from the ground.
Whether it's shopping, food, art, or entertainment, everything here is awesome!

Samurai Residences in Kakunodate
In Kakunodate, part of the city of Semboku in Akita Prefecture, exists rows of old houses first attributed to the Ashina family in the early Edo period (around year 1620), that later flourished under the castle town of the Satake-Kita family. This district has been designated as protected in an effort to conserve traditional buildings.
The Samurai Residences in Kakunodate are a favorite among visitors. It's a great place to experience what life was like back then and to get a feel for Japanese history and culture.
