It's really close to the Aomori Museum of Art, so I just stopped by while I was in the area.

Shiraito Falls (Shizuoka Prefecture)
Located at the foot of Mt. Fuji, Shiraito Falls is a natural monument and popular scenic spot located in Shizuoka Prefecture’s Fujinomiya City. As part of Mt. Fuji, Shiraito Falls is covered as part of the mountain’s registration as a World Cultural Heritage. Mt. Fuji is considered a subject of faith and source of art.
Visiting in summer feels especially cool and refreshing. Every now and then, you can even spot a rainbow 🌈.

Shosenkyo Gorge
Shosenkyo is located in the northern part of Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, and is called "the most beautiful gorge in Japan". You can see granite cliffs, strange rocks and stones carved out over a long period of time, and clear and abundant water flowing.
Steep cliffs and unique rock formations everywhere. The paths are easy to walk, making this a great spot for hiking and enjoying nature.

Murata Town Street with Kura (storehouses)
Murata, located between Sendai and Yamagata, used to flourish for a long time as a business town. The main product was Safflowers which is a convenient raw material for dyestuff and cosmetics.
This city was a bustling hub for merchants during the Edo period, connecting Yamagata and Sendai. It really thrived thanks to all the trading back then.
