Lyric scenery and this song. It's healed. I was closest to the nearby Kitakami City Museum. Look at the map of bears and it's rich in nature ～. Next time, let's look around more!

"Kitakami Yaku" has become less known, but there is a competition in Kitakami City and it has been handed down. During the cherry blossom season, you can wait in line to take pictures in front of this monument.

The monument matches the scenery of the Kitakami River

Original Text

The stone monument is engraved with a sweet and sad youth song. The monument and the scenery of the Kitakami River matched very well. Since I visited in June, the fresh green was refreshing, and I was healed by the beautiful flow of the Kitakami River and the murmuring sound.
