Japanese Station-Hirosaki Station (Sleeping Man)

#5月好去地方2025 Hirosaki Station is the main transportation hub of Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture. It is the intersection of JR East's Ou Main Line and the Konan Railway's Konan Line. It is not only the starting point for popular attractions such as Hirosaki Castle, Hirosaki Park, and Iwakiyama, but also a station full of local characteristics. The exterior of the station building is simple, but as soon as you walk out of the east exit, you can see the eye-catching "Hirosaki Nebuta Lantern" decoration, which is the symbol of the "Hirosaki Nebuta Festival" held in Hirosaki City every summer. Although it is not as huge as the Nebuta Lantern in Aomori City, it is still a check-in point for many tourists to take photos after arriving at the station. There are bus transfer centers, tourist information centers, convenience stores and cafes around the station. You can also take buses directly to "Hirosaki Castle" or "Iwakiyama 100 Ski Resorts". It is the best starting point for planning a trip to Hirosaki. 📍Address: 1-1 Omote-machi, Hirosaki City, Aomori Prefecture 🚉Routes: JR Ou Main Line, Konan Railway Konan Line 🚌Station facilities: Tourist information center, tourist bus stop, sleep magic lantern decoration, convenience store 🎉Features: There is a permanent "Hirosaki sleep magic" lantern in front of the East Exit Station, showing the local festival culture atmosphere #Hirosaki Station #Hirosaki Sleep Magic #Hirosaki Transportation Hub #Aomori Station #Konan Railway #Hirosaki Free Travel
