Romantic souls, this journey to Tohoku is for you, as it reveals unexpected realms of poetry, in the manner of the famous 17th-century poet Basho. Tohoku remains one of the least known regions of Japan among foreign travellers. And that’s one of the benefits! It is rich in countless wonders, both natural and cultural, and immerses you in its rural, idyllic and timeless atmosphere. At Nyuto Onsen, enjoy the famous milky baths – it’s one of the most renowned hot spring resorts in Tohoku. In Kakunodate, a splendid and eloquent samurai district awaits you. Sado Island is renowned for its famous group, the “Kodo Drummers”, a percussion ensemble that plays the taiko, the traditional Japanese drum.
