My Hometown





My hometown is Odate. This city is famous for the place where The Hachi was born. It is well-known as a faithful dog, and its story was made into a Hollywood movie. So its bronze statue is put up at the station.
And there is an interesting festival in February. It is called “Amekko ichi”. Amekko means candies. This festival comes from old histories and now it has a tradition which eating candies in this season make us healthy.
Odate is too small and rural, but there are kindly people and much nature, so I like there.
