The central town of Aomori and Kuroishi, Nakamachi Komise Dori, is currently being talked about online as "a landscape with a different world."

On August 1, a Twitter account “Dojinjin @North_ern2” who lives in Hakodate, Hokkaido posted “Natsumachi Komise Dori, a night in an old town that I passed by while traveling,” along with four photos of Komise Nakamachi. By 19:00 on August 3, more than 6000 retweets and about 16,000 "likes" were posted on SNS.

Nakamachi Komise Dori has a wooden arcade-like passage in the era of the feudal lord, and the townscape of houses and breweries of merchants over 270 years old remains. In 1987 (Showa 62), it was selected as one of the "100 Best Roads in Japan" and in 2005 (Heisei 17) it was designated as an "Important Traditional Buildings Preservation Area."

"Hokkaido people" have a hobby of recording the life patterns of old townscapes and ruins, and travel around the country. During the three consecutive holidays from July 13th to 15th, he traveled northeast and north, and his first destination was Kuroishi. “When I was a kid, I used to go on family trips a lot. When I wanted to come back, I was fascinated by the beauty of the lanterns that were displayed in the arcade,” said the “people of the people”.

I shot it around 22:00. When taking a picture of the cityscape, he also leaves pictures that people enter, but this time he chose a pattern that does not enter. “The people of the dominion” said, “Even though it's an arcade, the ceiling is low, so it feels like walking through rather than walking. The light of a soft lantern creates an extraordinary feeling, and passersby passing by do not see a dark expression I even felt like I was lost."

On the net, it feels like a space between the ordinary and the extraordinary... It's a wonderful space. "It's just one axis off the reality. It's amazing." There was also a response from the local residents, saying, “I am a citizen of Kuroishi, but I am very grateful to have such a look.” (Original Mama)

“The people of the local people” said, “I've been posting for Kuroishi, and even though it was late at night, I was surprised by the rapid reaction immediately. It may be a space that I admire."

"People in the old townscapes often have optimistic and positive impressions, but people in the north of the Kanto region have a pessimistic impression. Although it was a short stay, The locals asked me if I could advertise, and as many people as possible came to me. I would be happy if the locals were happy."
