Daisen and Kitanizawa stream" ([ 4K UHD ]夏の伯耆大山と木谷沢渓流 Mt.Daisen & Kitanisawa Stream in Summer), was created by AQUA Geo Graphic. It's an introductory video showing Mt. Daisen and Kitanizawa Stream. Mt. Daisen is a mountain at 1,729m (5,700 ft.) above sea level in Tottori prefecture, in Japan's Chugoku region. It is a stratovolcano, but it is not active at present. It is also known as the sacred peak that represents the Chugoku region of Japan. Mt. Daisen is sometimes called Pansan or Hoki Daisen. The name Hoki Daisen derives from the history of western Tottori Prefecture, which was once called Hoki Country. Mt. Daisen is a popular scenic location that has been selected as one of Japan's "Top 100 Mountains" and Japan's "Top 100 Views." The Kitanizawa Stream is a clear stream that originates from Mt. Daisen, and is also designated as a walking route for sightseeing on Mt. Daisen. It is filled with many tourists, especially during the fall foliage season. The video introduces the fresh greenery of Mt. Daisen and the Kitanizawa Stream in beautiful 4K footage. You can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery, the chirping of birds, and the natural sounds of the flowing river, making it seem as if a mountain stream is actually flowing right in front of you. Mt. Daisen and Kitanizawa Stream- Two Beautiful Instagram Locations Photo：Kitanizawa mountain stream When visiting Mt. Daisen, we recommend taking a guided tour with the Oku-Daisen tour guide. It's a popular walking tour where you can enjoy the seasonal natural scenery, such as bird watching in the summer, autumn leaves in the fall, and snowshoeing in the winter. Keep in mind that the tours require a minimum of people before starting. Reservations can be made with the Kofu Tourism Association by phone or email. The first Saturday of the month is Kitanizawa Tour Day, which includes a photo and allows pets and elementary school students to accompany the tour. Feel free to sign up for this walking route, as it's a great way to capture some Instagram-worthy pictures. The crater at the top of Daisen is marked by the rim of a volcano, indicating that it was once a volcano. It's also locally called Hoki Fuji. If you fancy yourself a hike, why not try climbing to the famous Hoki Fuji Rim to see the natural landscape of Mt. Daisen? Speaking of Mt. Daisen, in winter, we recommend the Oku-Daisen Ski Resort. It's the largest ski resort in Tottori Prefecture, with 400 free parking spots. Reservations should be made early, as the resort is quite popular. Oku-Daisen Was Used for Suntory's Natural Water TV Commercials! Photo：Houki Fuji among the stars In 2017, a commercial for Suntory Natural Water, featuring world-renowned female artist Utada Hikaru, was set in Oku-Daisen, a famous mountain that is said to be the highest peak in the Chugoku region. Oku-Daisen is a place where the air and water are so clean that it is said to be a mountain of water, and the atmosphere of its mysterious forest is something straight out of an anime or some other mythological world! The numerous climbing spots capture the hearts of visitors. Okudaisen (奥大山) has a vast beech forest, where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the majestic mountains, and you can see the beautiful starry sky that Utada Hikaru sang about in the TV commercial "#Hoshi Suge" (These stars are beautiful!). The mountain stream that Utada Hikaru visited in the TV commercial is featured throughout this video, where you can enjoy the clear river water of the naturally flowing stream. If you watch the video, you might be able to feel what Utada Hikaru felt, surrounding by the natural beauty of Okudai Mountain. Mountain Climbing and Sightseeing at Mt. Daisen and Kitanizawa Stream Kofu City (江府町, Kofu cho), in Tottori Prefecture, is home to Oku-Daisen, mentioned earlier in the article. The air here is incredibly clear, making it a great place for stargazing, and many campers and photographers come here every year. In the surrounding downtown area and hotels, you can enjoy incredible gourmet cuisine, such as seafood from the Sea of Japan. Summary of Mt. Daisen and Kitanizawa Stream Hoki Daisen Station (JR West) in Yonago is a convenient way to get around, especially for trips to Mt. Daisen, home to the Kinayazawa Stream, one of the clearest rivers in Japan. We recommend using a local bus for transportation from Hoki Daisen Station to hotels, accommodations, and tourist destinations around Mt. Daisen. The highlight of this video is the Kitanizawa Stream, which is shown from 0:36 to the end of the video. The clear water flowing through the lush greenery of a mountain stream in summer, the beautiful moss on the rocks of the stream, and the beautiful sound of the river. It's a truly amazing atmosphere.

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. Cherry blossoms on Yoshinoyama are characterized by the fact that they bloom from the bottom to the back of the mountain, allowing visitors to enjoy the cherry blossoms for a longer period of time. The Yoshinoyama Tourist Association updates the blooming status on its official website from time to time during the peak cherry blossom season, and also releases information on the nighttime illumination, so please check before you visit. Spots for Viewing Cherry Blossoms on Mt. Yoshino Photo：The view from Hanayagura Observatory on Mt. Yoshino, Nara The best spot to see the cherry blossoms on Mt. Yoshino is the Hanayagura Observatory (花矢倉展望台, Hanayagura Tenbodai) located in the Kamisenbon area. You can enjoy a panoramic view of Mt. Yoshino from here. Even Mt. Kongo, the border between Nara and Osaka, can be viewed from here. The prospect from Nakasenbon area is also popular. Particularly, if you enter Sanmon Gate (山門, Sanmon) at Yoshimizu Shrine (吉水神社, Yoshimizu Jinja), you can enjoy a view known as "Hitome Senbon." Even Hideyoshi Toyotomi was said to be impressed with this view, so be sure not to miss it! The superb view called "Hitome Senbon" is composed of Someiyoshino, light pink colored cherry blossoms, but there are also Shiroyamazakura which have many different colors, such as white and light red. The variety of colors is one of the reasons for the park's beauty! In the Nakasenbon area, there is a hidden spot for enjoying hanami (cherry blossom viewing). That spot is Nyoirin-ji Temple. This is a good spot for those looking to enjoy the cherry blossoms in a relaxed atmosphere. [Video] 7:23 - Cherry Blossoms at Nyoirinji Temple From the viewing platform in the Shimo-Senbon area, you can see the beautiful cherry blossoms of Nanamagari-zaka. You can also enjoy a wonderful view of the cherry blossoms from the nearby Mt. Yoshino Ropeway. The Tradition of 'Hanami' in Japan Photo：Deer at Kasuganoenchi, Nara Park "Hanami" (花見) is the Japanese word for "cherry blossom viewing." 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. The tradition's roots can be traced back to famous Japanese warlords from hundreds of years ago, when large banquets were held to appreciate the beauty of the flowers. 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. If you're planning on visiting Japan yourself, we recommend experiencing hanami like the Japanese and doing just this! Pick up some snacks at a nearby store and spend a day appreciating the beauty of nature. Don't forget to take some photos as well! Summary of Cherry Blossoms on Mt. Yoshino Photo：Cherry blossoms lit up on Mt. Yoshino, Nara During cherry blossom season in Nara, traffic is regulated and parking lots are closed. Because of this, we recommend visiting by bus. During the peak blooming period for the cherry blossoms on Mt. Yoshino, you can even enjoy viewing them at night! There will be illumination events that light up the beautiful flowers. The nighttime scenery is truly magical! Around Mt. Yoshino, you can also enjoy various food. Try the famous Kuzu-Udon or Kakinoha-Zushi for lunch, and go for a hike up the mountains afterwards.

A Look at Japan's Dekotora Source :YouTube screenshot Dekotora is an abbreviation for decoration truck (in Japanese truck is pronounced "torakku"). Dekotora are artsy trucks that are decorated with glittering electric illuminations, and a flashy exterior. Parts such as the front deck, visor, and front bumper, are especially flashy. Dekotora culture is a unique subculture in Japan, and due to its unique appearance it has also begun attracting attention from overseas. The beautiful trucks are made by decorating the exterior in a variety of ways, such as painting the body in flashy paint, adding electrical equipment such as lanterns and marker lamps, or adding aero parts made of chrome plating and stainless steel. At 2:02, you can see both the interior and exterior of a dekotora. The interior is decorated with stickers and other gadgets, and you can see the dedication of the owner to their vehicle. However, if you put too many decorations on the vehicle, there are times when it won't pass the vehicle inspection, so dekotora fanatics have to keep this in mind when designing their trucks. You can see a variety of unique dekotora on Instagram, or at events and gatherings. There are also plastic models, radio controlled dekotora, and the truck game “Bakuso Dekotora Legend” that you can purchase, so you can enjoy dekotora at home as well. There are different styles for decorating dekotora as well. Some categories are “Gundam Art,” “Modern Art,” “Kansai-style Art,” and “Retro Art.” The History of Japan's Dekotora Source :YouTube screenshot The origin of Japan's dekotora is said to be from seafood transport trucks using stainless steel plates to fix the deterioration of the body. This deterioration was due to the effects of the snow-melting agents. The movie “Truck Guys” which was released in 1975, sparked a boom in popularity and many people began making dekotora. The famous vehicle "Ichiban boshi" which appeared in "Truck Guys," was turned into a plastic model and became very popular among children at the time. Unfortunately, the movie "Truck Guy" received complaints from the police due to its explicit depictions and the movie was discontinued. Because of this, the dekotorora craze slowly began to fade away. Currently, with movies such as "Dekotora Girl Nami" and "The Eagle of Dekotora," dekotora have once again gained public attention. Summary of Japan's Dekotora Source :YouTube screenshot In this video we showed, "【HD】Story of the modified vehicles～The latest Dekotora Episode②～,” produced by “Tenku Ranbuー Custom Videosー"; a video that introduces Japan's flashy dekotora trucks.

Tourist Information for Viewing the Autumn Colors in Hakkoda and the Tsugaru Plains in Aomori This tourism promotional video (made by JAPAN GEOGRAPHIC) highlights the renowned autumn foliage in Hakkoda. Although Japan boasts many scenic sites to practice the traditional autumn foliage viewing, one of the 100 most beautiful Japanese mountains, Mt.Hakkoda has been very popular for the viewing of autumn colors in the countryside. The breathtaking view of autumn foliage reflected on the lake surface attracts a great number of visitors. The video navigates us through the beauty of autumn-colored Hakkoda which often appears on well-known travel sites or TV programs, and also has been a regular winner of the ranking of places in Japan to see autumn colors. Autumn leaves are best seen on a sunny day. The sunlight makes the red and yellow leaves shine. Winter comes early up in the north in Aomori. Such meteorological conditions give leaves vibrant colors. The video captures the spectacular color display in Hakkoda. Hakkoda: From Hot Springs to Beautiful Autumn Foliage Photo：Kenashitai Wetlands dyed in autumn colors Some hiking trails are maintained in Hakkoda so that hikers can take in the splendid autumn color display in the clear air, or enjoy the sounds of walking through the deciduous forests on a carpet of fallen leaves. Aomori Prefecture features many renowned hot springs. Staying at an Onsen Ryokan located in the area such as Sugayu Onsen (a very charming old-fashioned onsen hotel), Jogakura Onsen, or Tsuta Onsen will make your trip even more special. The recommended hiking route is an excellent 5-hour circular walking trail that starts and ends at Sugayu Onsen. The route takes you up to Mt. Otake and leads to the vast marshlands of Kenashitai. As plenty of visitors are expected during the peak of the autumn colors, it is better to book your room in advance. The Best Sightseeing Spots in Hakkoda Source :YouTube screenshot Aomori is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Japan. When it gets a color makeover from the autumn foliage, places like Mt. Hakkoda, Oirase Gorge, Zenkojidaira, Mutsu Bay or Jyogakura Oohashi are filled with tourists hunting for vibrant colors. Look at the breathtaking autumn vistas at Jigokunuma starting at 0:50! The red tinge with yellow, and vivid orange hues.... The stunningly beautiful color display is made mainly of Beech, Japanese rowan trees (nanakamado) and maple trees. "Tsutanuma Lake" (from 1:20 -) laying at the foot of Mt. Hakkoda is a hidden gem of the area. With the red leaves floating on the water, the lake has a mysterious beauty. The image of Lake Towada reflecting the mountains of autumn colors on its surface (from 1:42) is something you never get tired of looking at it. This explains why it is a photographers' dream destination. The symbolic scenery of the turning of autumn leaves contrasted with the water's surface is a magnet that pulls tourists back to this location. A Walk in the Sky With Hakkoda Ropeway Photo：Mt. Hakkoda, Ropeway The nighttime illumination during the autumn season allows visitors to admire the colors of autumn foliage from the sky until late hours. The approximately 10-minute sky walk in a gondola takes you up to the summit of Mt. Tamoyashidake offering you a look out of the colorful autumn mountains. Road Trip Information to Hakkoda in Autumn Photo：Autumn Leaves at Hakkoda Mountain Autumn foliage in the Tohoku region typically peaks from the beginning to the end of October. The route twisting through the mountains gives travelers a diverse views of the autumn leaves. From JR Aomori station, it takes about an hour to drive to Hakkoda. There is some parking in the area. Summary : 360° Panorama View From the Summit of Hakkoda - 4k Video of Autumn Colors Hakkoda is crowded with both domestic and international tourists in the autumn season, so we recommend checking traffic information and accommodation availability provided by the tourist information websites.

Video introduction to Shifukuji Temple, a hydrangea temple in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture This time, we introduce a video titled "[4K]Ajisai Temple: 1200 hydrangea flowers in the shifukuji temple, Miyagi Japan".（[4K]Ajisai Temple 仙台のあじさい寺・資福寺に咲く1200株の紫陽花 hydrangea flower in the shifukuji temple, Miyagi Japan） The video shows the precincts of Shifukuji Temple in full bloom with hydrangeas at their best. What is Sendai Hydrangea Temple "Shifukuji"? Highlights and history Shifukuji Temple, also known as the Hydrangea Temple (あじさい寺, Ajisai-dera), is located in Kitayama, Aoba Ward, Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture in the Tohoku region of Japan (Miyagi-ken Sendai-shi Aoba-ku Kitayama). The temple is formally known as the Shiunzan Shifukuji Zen Temple (慈雲山 資福禅寺, Shiunzan Shifukuji-zen-dera) of the Myoshinji Sect of the Rinzai school of Buddhism (臨済宗妙心寺派, Rinzai-shu Myoshinji-ha). As suggested by the name "Hydrangea Temple," Shifukuji Temple is known for its more than 1,200 bunches of blooming hydrangeas. The temple is a popular sightseeing destination in Sendai. An especially popular and Insta-worthy spot is the hydrangea-lined path leading to the sanmon gate. This can be seen at 0:56 in the video. Shifukuji Temple (Hydrangea Temple) has a long and rich history. It was originally constructed in Takahata Town, Yamagata Prefecture (山形県高畠町, Yamagata-ken Takahata-machi) in the Tohoku region of Japan. During the Warring States period (1467～1615), Kosai Soitsu (虎哉宗乙, Kosai Soitsu) became the chief priest of the temple. After Kosai became the educator of Sendai’s feudal lord Date Masamune (伊達政宗, Date Masamune), the temple was moved to Sendai. The ruins of the former Shifukuji Temple can still be found in Takahata Town, along with the graves of Date Masamune’s ancestors and Endo Motonobu (遠藤基信, Endo Motonobu), one of the Date clan’s chief vassals. Shifukuji Temple is also known for the statue of Ninomiya Sontoku (二宮金次郎, Ninomiya Sontoku). When is the best time to see hydrangeas at Shifukuji Temple? Sendai Hydrangea Temple "Shifukuji" has about 1,200 hydrangea plants in its precincts. The best time to view them is usually from mid-June to early July. The best time to view them depends on the weather, so please check the weather information website for the blooming conditions. Access to Sendai’s Hydrangea Temple Photo：Shifukuji・Hydrangeas Parking spaces are available behind the Main Hall of Shifukuji Temple. However, as the roads leading to the temple are narrow, we recommend that visitors take public transportation such as buses. The peak viewing season for the hydrangeas is late June, and many events, such as matcha-tasting at Shoshoin (小書院, Shoshoin), are held. However, as many visitors congregate during this time, it can be difficult to find a free parking space. In addition, a zen meditation session is held on the 1st of every month. This is also a popular event that draws many visitors. What is the language of flowers for the hydrangea variety? Photo：Shifukuji・Hydrangeas Hydrangeas bloom during Japan's rainy season, and appear in shades of white, purple, blue and red from May to July, growing to about 1m to 2m. In Japan, they symbolize both a young girl’s love or persevering love, as well as the opposing meaning of capriciousness and betrayal. The latter meaning is thought to be derived from the fact that the flowers' color changes depending on the quality of the soil. The colorful cluster which is frequently mistaken for flowers is actually the calyx of the hydrangea, with the flower petals hidden in the middle of the cluster. This is where pollination occurs and seeds are formed. The hydrangea is native to Japan, China, Taiwan and South America. They are deciduous shrubs of the Hydrangeacae family, and are also known as the Western hydrangea. The various species of hydrangea include the hydrangea macrophylla f. macrophylla, hydrangea quercifolia, hydrangea serrata, as well as the hydrangea macrophylla f. normalis. Recommended for beginner growers? How to grow "Hydrangea Photo：A potted Hydrangea The cultivation and care of hydrangeas is fairly simple, making it great plant even for beginners at gardening. For potting, first cut 2 centimeters off the stem of the hydrangea. Place the cut stem in water for about 30 minutes. In the meantime, place a net at the bottom of the pot, then fill the pot with Kanuma soil or Akadama soil and then moisten it. Next, create an opening to insert the cut stem. In about one month’s time, roots will grow. After the roots have grown sufficiently, transfer the shrub to a large pot. Place the pot in a place with plenty of sunlight, water the shrub frequently, and the hydrangea will grow healthily. View Hydrangeas at Sendai's Hydrangea Temple!

Yu Akari – A Winter Illumination at Kurokawa Onsen: Video Introduction This video, titled "Yu Akari 10-Year Anniversary Video" (湯あかり10周年記念動画), was uploaded by "Minamioguni Tourist Association" (南小国町観光協会). This video chronicles the 10-year history of Yu Akari at Kurokawa Onsen in Aso, Kumamoto, in Japan's Kyushu region, starting from the winter of 2012 through 2022. Yu Akari – A Winter Tradition at Kurokawa Onsen Photo：A hot spring inn at Kurokawa Onsen Yu Akari began after the head of the Kurokawa Onsen Tourism Association, noticing that winter in Kurokawa was slow, decided to create an event that visitors could enjoy during the winter months as well. The video shows the tranquil scenery of Kurokawa Onsen during winter. [Video] 0:20 - Snow Falling and the Beautiful Sound of a Murmuring River In modern Japan, dilapidated bamboo groves are becoming a problem all over the country. Kurokawa Onsen is no exception. The number of abandoned bamboo groves has been increasing, and is a constant source of concern. Under such circumstances, Kurokawa Onsen made efforts to thin out and regenerate the bamboo forests in order to maintain the beautiful satoyama environment. The new tourist attraction Yu Akari is a part of these activities to combat dilapidated bamboo groves. In 2022, Yu Akari celebrated its 10th anniversary and is now spreading throughout the town of Minamioguni. Starting something new is not an easy task in a tourist attraction known for its history, and sustaining it can be even more difficult. In Kurokawa Onsen, the younger generation has taken over the tradition of Kurokawa Onsen, with the strength from their predecessors, and has continued to create, nurture, and grow Yu Akari as a community. Photo：Yu Akari, Kurokawa Onsen Yu Akari is an event in which bamboo lanterns of various shapes and sizes are lit up throughout the town. They are positioned and illuminated so that they blend in with the natural landscape of the town, such as along the river and at shrines. The faint illuminations blend into the cold winter air and have become popular in recent years for their photogenic nature.
