| Safflower Museum |
only safflower museum in Japan |
|
|
The only safflower museum in Japan, located in Kahoku Town, famous as the
"Safflower Village." This museum is a restored mansion of a wealthy
merchant who made his fortune trading in safflower in the mid-Edo period.
Through exhibits of materials related to Mogami (general name for this
area) safflower and Hina dolls, you can deepen your understanding of the
history and culture of safflower. There is also a safflower field on the
premises, which blooms in early July. The workshop, a relocated and restored
storehouse remaining in the town, is used as a place for hands-on learning
about safflower dyeing and straw crafts. |

| Mt. GASSAN Ski Resort |
Mecca of summer skiing |
|
|
|
Because of Mt. GASSAN is a heavy snow area, the remaining snow slopes open
in April when other ski resorts are closed, and can enjoy skiing until
the snow melts. The large slopes with a sense of openness allow fully enjoy
the fun of summer skiing. It is characterized by "few trees",
so It's possible to enjoy a vast view while skiing or snowboarding. In
winter, there is a lot of snow and access to the ski resort is cut off,
so it is a rare ski resort that cannot be used in winter, which is the
main ski season. However, there is a lot of snowfall throughout the year,
and the snow remains firmly from spring to summer, so in summer, many people
from all over Japan gather here as a ski resort where can enjoy "summer
skiing". At the end of the season, people enjoy skiing and snowboarding
with short sleeves in the warm weather. |
