Description
Kakunodate's Bukeyashiki Street is lined with samurai residences dating back to the Edo period. Wander past their weathered wooden gates and gardens for a glimpse into how the samurai class once lived, and see Japanese architecture at its finest. Weeping cherry blossoms in spring, vivid foliage in autumn, and snow-draped roofs in winter each give the black fences and old houses a different mood. Rent a kimono, ride a rickshaw through the streets, or watch a craftsman at work on kabazaiku cherry-bark ware — Kakunodate lets you step into local culture, not just admire it from outside.
