An adult's leisurely walk through the center of Akita City, centered on Senshi Park (千秋公園), the site of Kuboта Castle, former residence of the Satake clan who ruled the Akita domain. In the morning, experience the energy at the Akita Citizen's Market, the 'people's kitchen,' then stroll through the verdant Senshi Park. At the Akita Prefectural Museum of Art, designed by Ando Tadao, come face-to-face with Fujita Tsuguharu's monumental mural, 'Akita Events.' In the afternoon, witness the skillful artistry of the Kanto at the Akita Folk Performing Arts Transmission Hall, and conclude at the Renaissance-style Red Brick Township Museum. A perfect day-long walk for couples and partners who love art and history, filled with the joy of exploration.
