Osarizawa Mining Site

Last October 25, my "Introduction to Akita Culture" class went on a field trip to Osarizawa, an eco-town in Odate City. It was one of the most boring trips ever, but at least we didn't have to spend a far more boring day in class. Life-sized replicas of Japanese miners were displayed in the site to re-tell stories about the history of mining in the city. At the end of our underground tour, we were surprised to find an escalator leading to the exit! Haha! Nothing beats Japanese technology.
