     GONO LINE
     
     Gono Line is a 147.2-kilometer railway line that stretches from Kawabe

     the shoreline of the Sea of Japan that spray from the waves sometimes
     reaches the tracks. Enjoy the ever-changing view from the window as it
     passes by fantastically shaped rocks in the water and other beautiful
     natural sights.

     KISAKATA
     
     Once a group of islands, the entire area became land about 200 years ago
     when an earthquake caused the seabed to rise. One of the best times of the
     year to visit is in June when the rice fields are flooded—the spectacular
     Mount Chokai covered in lush new growth reflecting on the water is a truly
     beautiful sight.

     KASSENBA NO IPPONZAKURA
     
     Kassenba no Ipponzakura, which translates to “lone sakura on a site of
     battle,” is a weeping cherry tree with pink flowers on the site of an 11th
     century battle. It is breathtakingly beautiful when in full bloom—the
     drooping branches look like a waterfall of flowers. Despite its name, it is
     actually not one but two trees snuggling close together. For this reason it
     is also known as Meotozakura (“husband and wife sakura”).

     OUCHIJUKU
     
     With over thirty houses with thatched roofs along the roadway, Ouchijuku
     preserves the atmosphere of a post town during the Edo era. Many Japanese
     people feel nostalgia seeing thatched roofs along with the autumn leaves.
     The negi-soba, which is a local cuisine, is also delicious.
