About this place
The Seikan Ferry Memorial Ship Hakkoda Maru is a museum in Yanagawa, Aomori, Aomori Prefecture. After the Seikan ferry service was discontinued with the opening of the Seikan Tunnel, in 1990 the Hakkoda Maru, a star of the Seikan route among the railway ferries, was preserved as a memorial to Aomori, the "city of the sea," and is used as a floating museum kept close to its condition in its working days.
