Heading to the local train of Tsugaru!

by Kazu

I've never joined Aomori Nebuta Lantern Figure Festival before and have been interested in the actual manner in which the festival is held. But after the pandemic of covid-19 and its variants, the crowded situation of the participants and the tourists should be kept within appropriate level in the future.

The building of Shin-Aomori seemed so big because the platform of the bullet train is on the second or third floor of the building. Almost no building could be found around this building.

eWe changed the train from bullet one to the local line and enjoyed the scenery of the paddy field of winter in Aomori from the window of the train. It seemed that we had to wait the departure time of the local "Stove Train" for a while, so most of the tourists including the railway mania headed to the waiting room but I stayed on the platform of the stove train of Tsugaru Local Line.
