The Ogurasawa School (小倉沢小学校) wasn’t easy to find at all, but definitely worth the effort. This school was used by the residents of the famous haikyo: Nichitsu Ghost Town. The woody building is spacious and charming. And a considerable amount of objects can still be found inside; pianos, sewing machines, desks and books for instance. The blackboards told us that many alumnus still come back from time to time, awakening memories from their past.
