Hanamaki Morioka Self-Driving Tour

This time I went to Iwate Hanamaki Morioka for a self-guided tour. I didn't expect to encounter heavy snow before departure. I drove for two days to visit Genbikei, Geibikei, Tazawako, and Akita's Bujiashiki. The snow made this trip more beautiful. There are not many tourists in Tohoku in winter, and there is less noise and more tranquility. The whole trip was very leisurely and I enjoyed the slow life in Tohoku, which is very different from the summer. I felt very friendly wherever I went. Iwate is really suitable for slow travel. I will definitely arrange to visit again if I have the chance. 💞Recommended reason: slow travel, leisure, beautiful scenery 💰Per capita consumption: Medium Day 2: Yanbi Gorge, Geibike Gorge Day 3: Lake Tazawa, Kakunodate Samurai Yashiki Street, Michinoku Akita Pudding Shop Day 3: Morioka Castle Ruins, Morioka Hachimangu Shrine, Iwate Bank Red Brick Building 【Must-eat food】 1. Shengluoge + BBQ cold noodles (warm noodles) 2. Sakura no Sato + Oyakodon, skewers 3. Hakuryu + Morioka Jjajangmyeon. Ramen (I’ve tried it before) 【Accommodation recommendation】 Morioka Hotel Name: Richmond Hotel Hotel address〒020-0034 9-17 Morioka Station, Morioka-mae-dori, Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture
