Hanamaki this December 2015/8/26 03:15
Would like to visit Hanamaki in this December. Main idea to visit Iron and Steel Museum (http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e5030.html). I also know about Tono (http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e5060.html) and i have idea to visit it.
I know about Hiraizumi it's fantastic place (i been there).
Do you have ideas what else to see? How much time i should spent for this trip? Is it good idea to stay in Hanamaki or maybe Morioka is better or even in Sendai?
Could anyone please advise.

Just good if want to see snows.

If will using some train Pass for wide area possible if from Tokyo by Shinkansen as on the day travel.
Sendai is largest city in Tohoku region over a million living.
But Hanamaki onsen and Morioka city is smaller just no busy.

Iron and Steel Museum is located in Kamaishi.
I think Tono that's attractive as the countryside of Japan.
Hanamaki in Japanese is known as the Miyazawa Kenji birthplace of the writer.
Hot Springs is also renowned.
Hayachine Kagura is carried out on December 17 and December 20.

Since Sendai and Morioka is a prefectural capital, scale is different from the three of the city.
