Hakusamu Shrine in Sapporo I visit every morning. The shrine in winter is beautiful. Unless it becomes a very blizzard, I come to say hello every morning. The god of worship is Houji Ōkami Uta Soul Ōkami It seems that there is a benefit of increasing fortune. I feel that they have given me many more benefits than that. I am grateful.

One of the New Year's games is kite flying. There was a kite flying competition at the Haebaru event, so I made an original kite and participated. A kite flying high into the sky, relying on the power of the wind, is very pleasant to watch. I was able to fly it easily even with HAERUN ☆

[English/Japanese] The other day I bought a French pastry called "Galette des Rois" at "Patisserie Tatsuya Sasaki" just a 4 minute walk from Nishi Hachioji! It is famous in France as a cake eaten on January 6. The cake is not only delicious but also enjoyable, as there is a ceramic doll inside the cake and the person who wins it can become a king. What do you do on New Year's in your country? Most of our international students have their New Year's in February or April! They have a very lively time, eating the country's traditional food and having festivals. When a new year starts, you will feel renewed ?We wish you all a happy new year!

Herons relaxing on the river

We crossed to Nakajima by Lake Toya steamer and trekked around the island in 3 hours. After walking for more than 1 hour, we arrived at the lake shore opposite the Nakajima pier. From there, Mt. Yotei (Ezo Fuji) in spring is reflected in the lake, making it look like an upside-down Fuji. It was beautiful to see the white Mt. Yotei with the remaining snow shimmering on the surface of Lake Toya. I sat by the lake and didn't want to move for a while. I had a mysterious feeling that I wanted to live here with a tepee (Indian tent) (laughs). A view that you can't see unless you come here at a certain time. It was awesome!

?? The city night view ? of Japan's three new night view cities Take advantage of the good weather these days, go to Moiwa Mountain in the afternoon and prepare to take the cable car up the mountain to see the night view! The gorgeous night view of countless colorful light particles covering the entire plain is the best ✨ in Hokkaido You can also come up with your lover and ring the bell of happiness~ At night, of course, it is to stay in the Jintang Pavilion to take pictures ? and share a good time together

The first Oku Nikko of the year I watched the sunset over Lake Chuzenji. The slightly reddish mountain of the clouds reflecting the setting sun It's majestic and you will fall in love with it. Photographed from the Utagahama parking lot

This is a photo of when I went to Asakusa with my friends. Since it was still winter vacation, there were many tourists.

The Choja Bridge and pleasure boats of the Shogawa Gorge. I took this photo in time with the sightseeing boat that departs at 9 o'clock in the morning. If you come from the Toyama side, you can go to Shirakawa-go and Gokayama after sightseeing in Shogawakyo, so it is definitely recommended for car travel. It was also very refreshing to drive along the river road towards the next destination, Shirakawa-go. It was snowing the day before, so I thought there would be a little more snowfall, but it's quite difficult.

Sapporo International Ski Resort the next day after a lot of snow.

Night view from the oil mountains in the southern part of Fukuoka City. It is a standard date spot for couples in Fukuoka.

It is the approach to Kirishima Jingu Shrine in Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture. You will be comforted by the tranquil atmosphere.

I happened to see moonlight while traveling in Nagasaki. THIS KIND OF THING IS CALLED MÅNGATA IN SWEDISH.

In the balloon Fantasia of Saga, the night mooring is beautiful.

Balloons floating in the blue sky are a winter feature of the saga

Bentenjima Seaside Park in Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture Around the winter solstice, the sun sets in the underwater torii gate, making it a photogenic spot for photographers. Depending on the temperature and weather, its expression varies, making it a spot that you will want to visit again and again.

It is Matama Beach in Bungotakada City, Oita Prefecture! This is ☺️ a memorable photo taken with a SLR camera for the first time.

5 minutes by ferry from Moji Port in Fukuoka Prefecture. One photo taken in Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Karato Town. The wide sky, the endless scent of the sea and tide. The Kanmon Bridge connects the great outdoors. While I couldn't travel much because of the Coronavirus pandemic, I was able to go to the countryside for the first time in a long time and feel nature. Digital content has evolved greatly in the Coronavirus pandemic, and the enhancement of "home time" has been remarkable. However, I was reminded that there is nothing better than going to see a scenery that I have never seen with my own eyes or feet. I would be happy if you could feel a sense of nostalgia from this photo. New stimuli are pleasant, no matter how old you are.

The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge of the World. Awaji was still a great empire. Awaji's vegetables filled with nature are as good as Hokkaido. When you visit Kansai, be sure to do it once

red spider liliies of Nogawa Park. Even in big cities, there was nature.

This is one piece with gratitude to those who work at sea

The scenery changes even more from the entrance of the sanctuary of Mt. Takao, Joshinmon. Joshinmon is a torii gate in the form of "Ryobe torii". Mt. Takao Yakuoin is a temple, but there is a torii gate and other Shinto-Buddhist customs. In the past, shrines and temples were not separated, so I think that Mt. Takao is not something special, but that this is what it should be. In the Shinhendo Hall near the Jōshinmon Gate, the Great Bodhisattva (Performer) is enshrined. If you walk a little past the Shinhendo Hall, you will find "Otokozaka" and "Onnasaka". Onnozaka is gentle, but men's slope has 108 steps. 108 is the number of disturbing emotions. The cliff in front of Otosaka was very tasteful. The mountains are beautiful everywhere, and no matter where you cut them, they become picturesque. I love you, Mt. Takao!

Sanda Fruit Flower Park My Idol It stood out more than the illumination (laughs) ?

Sanda Fruit Flower Park A product I've been interested in for a long time I'm glad ? I was able to experience it It was ? futuristic, like outer space.

This photo was taken at Kanai Shrine in Inabe City, Mie Prefecture. It is a very beautiful shrine where you can enjoy colorful flowers, windmills, and colorful wind chimes in summer. Also, the red seal is also very colorful and cute, so if you are interested in this post, why not do your homework and go sightseeing?
