An inn for rent in Unno Yado where the townscape of harmony continues Kamishuya In the Edo period, it was full of vitality as a Shukuba town, and during the Meiji and Taisho periods, it Unno Yado shifted to a city where sericulture was thriving. Even now, the precious buildings of that time are lined up, and if you step inside, you can feel the "time" that is constantly streaming beyond the long history of Unno Yado, which has lasted for nearly 400 years. Kamishuya is the only space where you can compare your time to a thread and unwind the tightly twisted thread. Dinner at Kamishuya Kamishuya offers creative Japanese cuisine produced by Komoro City "Drunkenness". A small bowl made with ingredients from Shinshu, and sukiyaki of Shinshu premium beef as the main dish. It is a hot pot that warms up in this season when it is still cold. You can consult with us about the arrangement of the dishes according to your budget and wishes. Please experience the cuisine that fills the space of Kamishuya and the local wine together with "unwinding time". #Unno Yado #Old townscape #Nagano Trip #Rental of a building

It is Matsumoto Castle in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture. The castle tower is thought to have been built in Bunroku 2~3 (1593~4), and is the oldest existing five-story and six-story castle tower in Japan, and is designated as a national treasure along with Himeji Castle, Hikone Castle, Inuyama Castle, and Matsue Castle. It is a famous castle with a history that has overcome many dangers.

It's been 30 years since that day. We will continue to convey the requiem and hope that we will never forget. Luminarie Kobe, I think this is also a place to tell the history of Japan #History #Photo Contest

Sacred place, Saiba Ontake This sacred site, which is registered as a World Heritage Site, is located in a natural environment full of lush trees, and is said to be the place where the highest ranking priestess of the Ryukyu Kingdom prayed for the nation. Originally, it was a sanctuary where men were forbidden, and it is said that some places of worship in Saiba Ontake were given the same names as the rooms in Shuri Castle, which shows the roles of male and female societies that form the two sides of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and the strength of their ties. The location of this photo is the innermost place of worship "Sangui", which exists further back in the triangular space created by two huge boulders. On this day, it was a strong rain and wind, but the weather suddenly improved on the way there, and when we arrived at Sankori, the dazzling sunlight came in. The light is so strong that the sunlight filtering through the trees creates a clear contrast pattern on the ground. As the sea breeze shook the trees, a strong light flew into the viewfinder, but I didn't care. Flares, ghosts, and large glows, usually NG as photos. But this is a sanctuary. I felt that my heart was shaken by the overflow of light. The photographs, which should have been unusual, were engraved as vivid memories.

The long week of the new school year is coming to an end. Here's a little reflection of March. [Implementation of study tour by junior high and high school students @ Tomi City] 3/23 (Sat) - 26 (Tue) As part of the Ueda-Tomi Study Tour, members of the Social Action Team of the Volunteer Department of International Secondary School attached to Tokyo Gakugei University visited Tomi City! While continuing the relationship with Ueda, this time the field was expanded to Tomi, and 14 junior high and high school students experienced Tomi for the first time (Tomi was on the 1st day of 3/25). We actually visit the area, interacted with local people, and worked on a study tour to think about local issues together from the perspective of junior high and high school students. Tomi's theme is "How can people gather in Tomi?" (It's huge!) Because this was my first time in Tomi, I dared to ask them to grasp the charm of Tomi from multiple perspectives without being bound by the perspective of tourism. [Local people who cooperated this time] ⚪︎Cave Hatano Hatano-san ⚪︎SASAKI FARM 佐々木さん ⚪︎ Kodama Family Residence & Cafe Nei Kodama's family ⚪︎Unno Yado Kamishuya Asakawa-san * SASAKI FARM was specially accepted for training. Please note that it is not a tourist ranch. The junior high and high school students fell in love with the land of Tomi itself and enthusiastically asked specific and Gari wide-ranging questions, touching the enthusiasm of the Adult who took on the challenge of realizing their commitments and aspirations. Although it was only one day, I was very impressed by the way they tried to get to know Tomi deeply. At the end, the "charm of Tomi" that everyone felt at the Unno Yado Fureai Center was output in a short time. From the moment you unfold the imitation paper, the pen moves all at once! Impression by the enthusiasm of the junior high and high school students. I'm looking forward to the reports that will be compiled in the future. Tomi, like Ueda, I can't help but think that we can build a Gari with continuity.

The Yomeimon Gate at the Nikko Tosho-gu shrine. We arrived towards the closing time of this shrine and yet this gate made me stand and stare at the gorgeous detail of the artist's work. Very symbolic of the beautiful Japanese history. The cherry on the cake was that beyond this gate, we could walk up to the final resting place of Tokugawa Ieyasu, someone who I admire and had read about so much before arriving in Japan.

(2024-04-26) Goryokaku in full bloom I didn't make it in time for the Spring Photocon, but Goryokaku has great significance from the perspective of Japanese history, so I will apply here. This is Goryokaku in full bloom of cherry blossoms taken from Goryokaku Tower with a 17mm lens. Initially, the expected full bloom date was 4/27. 4/26 Moved → Tokyo to Hakodate Photo taken on 4/27 4/28 Returned to Tokyo I had secured a bullet train and an inn according to the schedule, but the expected date of full bloom was getting earlier and earlier (;' ∀') I forcibly took a picture on 4/26 when the Shinkansen flight on 4/26, which was just scheduled for a moving day, was brought forward and kept in full bloom w Goryokaku, the site of the last fierce battle of the Boshin War, has great historical value as a Western-style bastion in Japan. At this time of year, it also shows a special scenery.
