Akita Furusato Village
In this village of lush greenery with an area four times as large as the Tokyo Dome (165 ㎡), you can fully enjoy nature at your own pace by gazing at outdoor sculptures or eating a bento box lunch on a grassy field. Rainy days are no problem, as all facilities are connected by corridors. It’s perfect for family outings, kids’ get-togethers and other leisure activities. Many fun-filled events are held throughout the year, and a rich variety of souvenirs is also available.
The numerous attractions here include: the SPACIA Space Exploration Hall, which houses Tohoku’s largest planetarium; Wonder Castle, which features trick art and tons of playground fun for kids; Industrial Arts Exhibition Hall, which introduces craftwork from Akita; the Akita Museum of Modern Art, and more.
