Insider tip — Southwest of Hirosaki in the apple orchard country of Aomori, Sakura Onsen (cherry blossom spring) is run by Maeda Tourism and nestled near orchards that rival Hirosaki Castle for springtime beauty; the mineral waters are warming year-round, but the blossom season in late April draws visitors from across Tohoku.
