Sakura and samurai history await in the charming castle town of Kakunodate in Akita Prefecture. 🌸✨ Established in 1620, the town boasts a 2km-long preserved samurai district where you can experience Japan from a bygone era. From late April to early May the trees that dot the town burst into blossom, creating a vivid contrast against the dark walls of the former samurai residences and make for a truly spectacular sight.
