We know you can’t wait to take your new ride for a spin. How about taking a day trip out to Nishiiwai-gun? Just 25 miles away, roll down your windows and feel the breeze in your hair on the drive there. Explore the area starting with Chuson-ji Temple, Motsu-Ji Temple and Golden Hall. Locals will also probably point you in the direction of Yokote, 25 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, make sure it’s Yokote Castle. (But we’re also big fans of Kamakaura Museum and Akita Furusatomura.)
