If you take a walk through the forest where Aomori Hiba grows, you will discover something you have never seen before.
If you walk around the city, you may come across the same scenery as the memory of Dazai Osamu.
It may be confusing experiencing a Kominka for the first time.
There is no daily hustle and bustle here in Kanagi.
There are rice plants and Tsugaru plains as far as the eye can see, history that stands as if time has stopped.
Stars covering the night sky. Does not stop flowing Iwaki river. Snow capped Iwaki Mountain.
The warmth of people. If you spend you time in Kanagi, you will surely return to a state of calm.
A Kominka built in 1871, over 150 years ago, and the house with a thatched roof related to Osamu Dazai, called old house, Sobajima. You can stay over night in this house and experience the country life, such as dining over an open fire, swinging in the garden, and harvesting the fields (from July to October).

Leave yourself to the beautiful nature and reset you mind.
You can feel the scenery that Osamu Dazai might have experienced with all five senses.
Aomori Hiba. One of Japan's three major natural forests. A 117 km trail that goes around the track of the forest railway that is a modern heritage.
It is packed with the charm of a long trail where you can enjoy the nature, culture of the land and interacting with people.
It seems that the birthplace was narrow shoulder for the evacuated Osamu, he often came here to fish with his teacher in the nearby river and relax by the irori (traditional Japanese fireplace) and drank alcohol.
It is a place where the remnants of bazai still remain.
