japan's hidden samurai town 🌸 | exploring historic kakunodate

🌸 kakunodates samurai district and old town 🌸
✿ Step into the past in Kakunodate, Akita’s beautifully preserved samurai town. In this video, we explore traditional samurai houses, wander through peaceful streets lined with Edo-era architecture, and discover local crafts like cherry bark woodwork. We also taste regional sweets and visit a cat café! Join me on this relaxing journey through one of Tohoku’s most underrated cultural gems. #japantravel #japanvlog #japanlife
