I went to photograph the Shibungiza meteor shower. I was expecting a lot of many meteors, but I was only able to confirm about 5 on my computer.

Since each kanji character has its own meaning, enjoy this traditional cultural experience, including the meaning of the kanji used in your name. You can take home the engraved wooden Dojo-fuda as a souvenir to remember your visit. #calligraphy #kanji #shodo #culturale

Izumo Daijingu Shrine Chitose Towns, Kameoka City, Kyoto Prefecture Izumo Daijingu Shrine has "Izumo" as its name, but it is a separate corporate shrine from Izumo Taisha in Shimane Prefecture and Izumo Taisha Kyoto Branch (Shimoyada Towns, Kameoka City) in the same Kameoka City. As for the God of worship, it is generally said that he was solicited from Izumo Taisha (Kitsuki Taisha) in Izumo Province. However, in the company biography, on the contrary, Izumo Taisha was solicited by Izumo Daijingu Shrine, and there is a common name of "former Izumo".

This is a photo from when I went to Omiya Hikawa Shrine last month. Although there was sunshine, it was cold in the afternoon, so I bought a drink from a vending machine. "Vending machines don't have a lot of pees," she said, looking happy to have her favorite pees. After all, winter in Japan is a shiruko, isn't it?

Today, I visited Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine to receive prayers for the New Year's Prayer for Good Luck. It is Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine around 6:30 in the morning. Luckily, I was able to receive a Marriage Jade.

Happy New Year! Thank you for your continued support of Tateyama in 2025!

New Year Greetings Thank you very much for all your support last year. I look forward to your continued support this year. How did you spend the New Year? 😌 I hope the seasonal influenza and other circulating illnesses didn’t affect you. Wishing you a wonderful year ahead. 🙇‍♀️

Happy New Year Happy New Year🎍 Thank you for your continued support this year.

Happy New Year 😄 This is Washaji, a local Kosh u dish. This year’s zodiac sign is the Snake 🐍 People believe carrying a snakeskin wallet or keeping a snake’s shed skin in your wallet brings better luck with money, and the white snake is especially thought to be auspicious for financial fortune. In this Year of the Snake, which is linked to good fortune, visiting Kanazakura Shrine for the first shrine visit of the year seems likely to boost your money luck even more! Our top recommendation is, without a doubt, unajuu (grilled eel over rice)! The unajuu made by our experienced chefs is truly delicious. If you enjoy fresh eel from the New Year onward, you’ll have plenty of stamina for the year—there’s no doubt you’ll stay energetic! Please be sure to visit our restaurant when you come to Shosenkyo Gorge.

\New Year, First Sunset 🌅/ In 2025, Echizen Town will have a cloudy sky and occasional sunny days! Compared to being buried in snow or having a blizzard, it was a day that was easier to Prayer First Pilgrimage to the Shrine, wasn't it? In the Sea of Sea of Japan, where the sun sets over the sea, there is a wonderful glow through the clouds. Are you lucky to see the sun set on the Horizon early in the new year? Good luck to you. Visit everyone a wonderful year.

New Year's Day 2025 at 6:30 a.m. Two cats warm each other in the cold of midwinter on the riverbank in the early morning, which is not popular. It is as if the body is dressed in pure white snow, and a quiet and peaceful time stream endlessly. Wonderful to welcome the new year Photographed two happy times a day.

The Seijoshin-in Temple on Mt. Koya, a World Cultural Heritage Site, and the snowy scenery in winter are also good, but I would like you to visit it during the Spring cherry blossom (umbrella cherry blossom) blooming season.

Happy New Year This year, too, I photographed the First sunrise from the Shinsui Park on the Coast of Atami. This year, it wasn't so cold, there was no wind, and the conditions were perfect! We waited at the third construction zone before 6:00, and the Horizon began to turn orange around 6:15, and the light began to shine after 6:50. There was a tree a little underneath, so I hurriedly moved to the second construction zone and took a picture here as well. It was a very beautiful First sunrise. As in every year, many citizens and tourists gathered at Shinsui Park early on to photograph the First sunrise of 2025 (Reiwa 7). May 2025 (Reiwa 7) be a better year for everyone Thank you for your continued support of Atami Hot Spring this year
