Introducing a round-trip mountain climbing video from Okuhotaka to Uma no Uma no Uta, spanning Nagano and Gifu Prefectures. This video, titled "Mt. Oku-Hotaka to Gendarmes｜Route Change After a Rockslide｜Video of a Detailed Round Trip of Uma no Se" (奥穂高からジャンダルム 滑落みて馬の背ピストンへ変更 馬の背詳細往復動画), was uploaded by "Biryu Jr." Mt. Oku-Hotaka Photo：The Hotaka mountain range from Mt. Norikura Mt. Oku-Hotaka is the main mountain of the Hotaka Mountain Range, which straddles Nagano and Gifu prefectures in the Hida Mountain Range of Chubu-Sangaku National Park in the southern part of Japan's Northern Alps. At 3,190 meters above sea level, it is the highest peak in the Northern Alps and the third highest in Japan after Mt. Fuji and Mt. Kita. Mt. Oku-Hotaka (奥穂高岳), Mt. Karasawa (涸沢岳), Kita-Hotaka (北穂高岳), Mae-Hotaka (前穂高岳), Nishi-Hotaka (西穂高岳), and Mt. Myojin (明神岳), are collectively referred to as Mt. Hotaka. It is said that the origin of the mountain's name comes from a legend that a god named Hotakami-no-Mikoto descended to the summit of Mt. Oku-Hotaka. Even today, the mountain is revered as a sacred mountain by local people, who visit and climb it to pray. The first person to summit Mt. Oku-Hotaka was surveyor Gunji Abe in 1906. With its challenging routes, powerful rocky ridges, and panoramic views from the ridge, Mt. Hotaka continues to attract many climbers to this day. The Geological Features of Mt. Oku-Hotaka Here, we'll take a look at the geological features of Mt. Oku-Hotaka ・Volcanic Terrain Mt. Hotaka, including Mt. Oku-Hotaka, is formed mainly of dacitic ignimbrite called "Hotaka andesite." This rock was formed by pyroclastic flows during an eruption approximately 1.75 million years ago, and was uplifted 2,000m over a period of 1 million years after a large-scale eruption. ・Glacial Landforms Many glacial landforms have been observed on Mount Hotaka. Glacial landforms are landforms created by glaciers that have accumulated soil, sand, rocks, etc., while carving away the land below. Mt. Oku-Hotaka – Uma no Se Photo：Uma no Se on Mt. Oku-Hotaka Mt. Okuhotaka, a famous mountain climbing spot, has a narrow ridge called "Uma no Se" (horse's back), which is steep and features cliffs on both sides. Because of how steep it is, it's also a dangerous place where falling accidents occur frequently. The slopes, which look like a combination of rubble, require extreme caution in order to prevent accidents. In the video, you can see how they decide not go to Gendarme (a rocky summit between Mt. Oku-Hotaka and Mt. Nishi-Hotaka), and instead decide to descend via Uma no Se. It's as realistic as if you were there yourself. The sound of the wind, the hands gripping the rocks, the shadows of climbers moving toward the spectacular views... the power of these scenes draws you in. [Video] 5:44 - Advancing Along Uma no Se Mt. Oku-Hotaka – Routes and Difficulties Here are the routes of Mt. Oku-Hotaka according to difficulty level: ・Kamikochi Course (上高地コース) - The recommended route for beginners Starting from Kamikochi Bus Center, the most common route is [Myojin (明神) - Tokusawa (徳沢) - Yoko (横尾) - Hontanibashi (本谷橋) - Karasawa (涸沢) - Mt. Hotaka Hut (穂高岳山荘, Hotakadake Sanso), Mt. Oku-Hotaka]. Your itinerary should be arranged according to your physical fitness. It is common to stay overnight during the climb. ・Kenkyakusha-Muke Course (健脚者向けコース) The rough route is [Shin Hotaka Onsen (新穂高温泉) - Shirade Hut Ruins (白出小屋跡) - Mt. Hotaka Hut (穂高岳山荘), Mt. Oku-Hotaka]. The trailhead is at Shin Hotaka Onsen. Since there are some points on the ascent where it's easy to make a mistake on the route, it's recommended that you be accompanied by an experienced climber. Furthermore, since route conditions change according to lingering snowfall, it's necessary to check trail conditions ahead of time. ・Advanced Climbing Course (熟練・上級者向けコース) The rough route is [Kamikochi Bus Terminal (上高地バスターミナル) - Yoko (横尾) - Yarisawa Lodge (槍沢ロッジ) - Kakusei Hutte (殺生ヒュッテ) - Yarigatake Hut (槍ヶ岳山荘) - Minamidake Hut (南岳小屋) - Kitahotaka Hut - Mt. Kitahotaka Hut (北穂高小屋) - Karasawa Hut (涸沢岳) - Mt. Hotaka Hut (穂高岳山荘)]. The ridge course from Yarigatake continues through rocky terrain with considerable height differences. Normally, three nights are required for this route, and extreme caution is needed as there are many steep sections. Summary of Mt. Oku-Hotaka Photo：Mt. Oku-Hotaka In this article. we introduced one of the three tallest peaks in Japan, Mt. Oku-Hotaka, and Uma no Se. Although there are dangers, such as slips and falling rocks, Mt. Oku-Hotaka is a thrilling mountaineering experience that features spectacular views of nature that attracts many climbers. Although the climb is not without its dangers, the view from the summit and the thrill of climbing over Uma no Se is said to be exceptional. If you wish to take on this challenge, please do your research and go fully prepared. That being said, if you're just here to enjoy some of the views, hopefully the video is enough for you. 【TripAdvisor】Mt.

Cherry Blossoms on Mt. Yoshino, Nara: Video Introduction Photo：Mt. Yoshino cherry blossoms, Nara This video, titled "Chery Blossoms on Mt. Yoshino 2020" (吉野山の桜 2020), was uploaded "koichi hozan." Mt. Yoshino is a famous sightseeing spot in Nara, and is a registered UNESCO's World Heritage Site. Mt. Yoshino has also been selected as one of Japan's Top 100 Cherry Blossom Viewing Sites. Being on a list with spots like Chidorigafuchi and the Imperial Place in Tokyo, Hirosaki Park in Aomori, and Goryokaku Park in Hokkaido, is no easy feat, so you know the cherry blossoms here are really something else. A Brief Introduction to Nara Prefecture and Yoshino Photo：Deer at Kasuganoenchi, Nara Park Nara is a prefecture in central Japan located south of Kyoto and just east of Osaka. Nara is known for its rich history as the ancient capital of Japan, as well as its abundance of temples and shrines. Many people travel to Nara to explore the history of ancient temples, such as Todaiji Temple, one of the most famous temples in Japan and at one point the largest wooden structure in the world, and the beautiful views that can be found within the prefecture, at places such as Nara Park. Yoshino is located in the dead center of Nara and is famous for Mt. Yoshino, undeniably one of the best places in Japan to view the cherry blossoms. The mountain is home to the Yoshino Ropeway allowing visitors to easily reach the top for some cherry blossom viewing. That being said, it's also possible to hike the mountain. If you're looking to do some hiking there are several different ways to go about it: The first is to hike up and down both ways. Starting from Yoshino Station and hiking to the Oku Senbon (upper area of the mountain) and then hiking back down will take around 3.5-5 hours depending on how many breaks you take and how often you stop to take in the scenery and take photos. Another way to hike the mountain is to take the Yoshino Ropeway to the top and then hike your way down the mountain while enjoying the views and visiting temples, shrines, etc. Hiking Mt. Yoshino like this will take around 2-3 hours. Lastly, you could hike up Mt. Yoshino and take the ropeway down, which will take you around 3-4 hours. From both Osaka Station and Kyoto Station, it's about a 2-hour train ride to Yoshino Station. From Nara Park, it'll take about 1.5 hours to reach by train. Japan – The Country of 'Sakura.' Discover the Beautiful Flower and What It Means in the Language of Flowers Photo：Cherry blossoms If you didn't know, Japan's national flower is the chrysanthemum, and if you've ever seen a Japanese passport before, you would have seen the flower on it. This might come as a surprised to most people as they often see associate Japan with cherry blossoms when it comes to flowers. But how much do you know about cherry blossoms? Here are some facts about cherry blossoms for you: The Japanese word for "cherry blossoms" is "sakura," written in kanji as "桜." The cherry trees in Japan that grow these beautiful flowers are a deciduous broad-leaved trees belonging to the family Rosaceae, subfamily Prunus. They're distributed throughout temperate regions on the Northern Hemisphere, but the ones that have beautiful flowers are mostly found in Asia. Japan especially has many different varieties of cherry trees. In general, there are 9 basic species, but there are actually more than 100 species of sakura that grow naturally. The language of flowers attaches different meanings to eat flower. Japan's version of this is called "Hanakotoba." In Hanakotoba, sakura mean "spiritual beauty," "graceful woman," and "purity." Some speculate that this flower was entrusted with such beauty as a symbol to express Japan's dignity. When the cherry blossoms are in bloom, the people of Japan know that spring has truly arrived. Most bloom during the spring, but some species bloom in fall as well. The History of Kinpusenji Temple on Mt. Yoshino – The Origin of Mountain Worship in Japan Photo：Kane no Torii, Kinpusenji Temple, Nara Mt. Yoshino is not like other famous cherry blossom spots: trees are not neatly arranged for hanami (cherry blossom viewing). Cherry blossoms on Mt. Yoshino are "sakura for religion" and are deeply connected to mountain worship in Japan. This is one of the reasons why they are taken care of so well. The history of Mt. Yoshino dates back around 1,300 years. At that time, the mountains were believed to be inhabited by gods, and Mt. Yoshino was considered to be an ideal home for these gods. It is said that En no Ozunu (the founder of Shugendo) carved the image of Zao Gongen into a cherry tree and enshrined it. Kinpusenji Temple is home to this image of Zao Gongen. The temple is also famous for Kane no Torii (銅鳥居), a torii gate made of copper. Kane no Torii is one of the Three Great Torii Gates of Japan. The other two are: the vermilion torii on Miyajima; the stone torii of Shitennoji Temple (大阪四天王寺, Osakashitennoji) in Osaka. Zaodo (the main hall of Kinpusenji Temple) where the principal image is enshrined, is still a center of worship that attracts many worshippers. What is "Ichimoku-senbon"? Cherry Blossom Viewing Period and Highlights of Yoshinoyama in 2024 Photo：Mt. Yoshino cherry blossoms, Nara There are around 30,000 cherry blossom trees of approximately 200 different varieties on Mt. Yoshino. In the spring, the trees bloom and create an incredible view. The view itself is called "Hitome Senbon," meaning roughly "One thousand cherry blossoms at a glance." The shiroyamazakura (Cerasus jamasakura) usually grow densely. These cherry blossoms can be found all over the mountain. Because there are so many, they're referred to in sections: "Shimosenbon" (lower thousand), "Nakasenbon" (middle thousand), "Kamisenbon" (upper thousand), and "Okusenbon" (inner thousand). The best time to see the cherry blossoms is from late March to mid-April; the full bloom date in 2023 was March 29 for Shimo-Senbon and March 30 for Naka-Senbon. The expected bloom date for cherry blossoms in Nara in 2024 is March 25.

Every year when spring arrives in Japan and the cherry blossoms begin to bloom, all across Japan you'll find people making preparations to go see them.

Even today, cherry blossom parties are held and you can often see people going out to parks, etc. with their friends and families to relax below the beautiful blossoms while enjoying a variety of foods, such as onigiri and mochi, and having fun barbecuing and drinking sake.

Baikamo Blooming on the Takimi River in Hyogo Prefecture: Video Introduction This video, titled "Baikamo｜A Flower Only Found in Japan [Shinonsen] 4K" (バイカモ　日本固有種 【新温泉町】4k), was uploaded by "e production.com" (e映像制作.com). Have you ever heard of the plant baikamo? In this article, we'll introduce an underwater flower that blooms in the Takimi River in Shinonsen, Hyogo. Be sure to check out the video to see the beautiful baikamo blooming in the clear stream. Baikamo – A Look at the Flower Blooming on the Takimi River in Hyogo, Japan Source :YouTube screenshot From the beginning of the video, you can see baikamo growing as birds chirp and the gentle sound of the river plays in the background. The video is very striking, as if it were shot from a bird's eye view. The location shown in the video is Baikamo Park. There are not many areas in Japan where baikamo can be found in such abundance. Baikamo is a plant that grows in tall mountains where the water is very cold, so it's rare to see it growing in clusters. Unfortunately, the baikamo colony on the Takimi River began to shrink in size around 2017, and as of 2022, not many baikamo can be seen anymore. Baikamo, a Flower that Blooms Under Water Photo：Baikamo Baikamo is a species endemic to Japan. The baikamo, which blooms along the Takimi River in Shinonsen, belongs to the buttercup family, Ranunculaceae, and has the scientific name of Ranunculus Kazusensis Makino. In floriography (the language of flowers) its meaning is "Happiness will come." Just as the language of flowers suggests, the small, pretty flowers blooming on the surface of the water make people happy just by looking at them. There is also a type of baikamo called ginkgo baikamo, which can be seen in some areas of Japan. This flower blooms from early summer to early fall, with white flowers 1-2 cm in diameter. The flowers resemble plum blossoms, and because of this, baikamo is often written with the kanji 梅花藻 (梅, Bai "Plum"; 花 ka "Flower"; 藻 mo "Algae"). It's a perennial flower that grows underwater and is characterized by its evergreen nature. It is also edible as a wild plant. Where Can Baikamo Be Found in Japan? Photo：The Jizo River, Awai, Shiga The baikamo featured in this video can be seen in Japan's Kinki region, such as the Jizo River in Awai, Shiga, and Kamikawa, Hyogo. Other locations include Echizen, Fukui; Mishima Baikamo Park (三島梅花藻公園), Shizuoka; Chokeiji Temple (長慶寺) in Tsuru, Yamanashi; and the Shimizu River in Konan, Fukushima. There is also a baikamo colony in Eniwa, Hokkaido. Summary of Baikamo, an Aquatic Plant That Blooms Only in Clear Streams Baikamo is an aquatic plant that blooms only in clear streams rich in nature. It's a pity that the number of baikamo has been decreasing due to various climate and environmental changes. However, there is good news from the Shimizu River in Tamba, Hyogo. The number of baikamo had been rapidly decreasing due to the decrease in water flow caused by the proliferation of weeds, but thanks to preservation activities by local residents, the baikamo population has been restored. It would be nice to see baikamo blooming beautifully again in the Takimi River like in the video. 【TripAdvisor】Baikamo Park https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g1121310-d8368832-Reviews-Baikamo_Park-Shinonsen_cho_Mikata_gun_Hyogo_Prefecture_Kinki.html
