The Village

The Village & Accommodation

The first thing you notice in Akakura village is the friendliness of the locals. Whether giving you directions or helping you with your choice of the local cuisine, you will always be surrounded by happy faces.

Scattered next to the hotels and pensions of the village are an array of restaurants serving everything from your delicious traditional Japanese dishes like sushi and tepanyaki, to sizzling steaks and pizza. Choose from an English menu, or have fun with the owners figuring out what it was you just ordered.

Sampling some of the local wine or beer in one of the many pubs can often lead to losing your inhibitions about trying to speak Japanese. Fun is had by all and there is, of course, always Karaoke for the aspiring singer.
