[Main Part]

At the last day of my trip, I moved from Hirosaki city to Aomori city. The picture below is Aomori station.

First, I looked around the Aomori bay area.

Hakkoda-Maru Memorial Ship

The Hakkoda-Maru is a ship made into a ferryboat museum. The ship itself was used until 1988 as an Aomori/Hakodate ferryboat. The inside of the ship, the wagon deck, engine room, and control house are all maintained and exhibited as if it were still in service..

Around Aomori Bay Bridge

This ares is fashionable and is something like a popular date destination.

Nebuta House Wa Rasse

The Nebuta House Wa Rasse is an interesting museum dedicated to the city’s famous Aomori Nebuta Festival. In the museum, you can see the colorful, brightly illuminated parade floats on display.
