【Moor Hot Spring Firefly Viewing】 Glowworms grown in the water of the Mole hot spring perform a dance of light. In the past, I was able to see fireflies around Tokachigawa Onsen. However, with the modernization of the city, the environment in which fireflies can live has decreased, and it is no longer possible to see fireflies at the end of the 1990 Heisei 2 summer. The purpose of the revival of the firefly at Tokachigawa Onsen is to bring back the early summer scene that was previously common. One of the major features of the regeneration of fireflies is the use of hot spring water as a water source, and the spring quality of Tokachigawa Onsen is a rare "plant-based mall hot spring" in the world that contains a lot of plant components. Because it contains plant components, it contains a lot of minerals that are essential for the reproduction of diatoms, which are food for snails. This is the first time in Japan that fireflies have been successfully regenerated using 100% hot spring water. Heike fireflies were distributed from Kyushu to Hokkaido, Eastern Siberia and Korea, and inhabited many waterside environments surrounding wetlands and rice paddies. The characteristic of Hokkaido's fireflies is that the interval between their emission tends to be longer than that of fireflies in Honshu. Period:7/8Sat~7/23Sun Time: 20:00~21:00 Location: Tokachigaoka Park

It is the Shakotan blue sea and Cape Kamui seen from the ShakotanKozaki Fishing Port of Hokkaido. Cape Kamui is a famous tourist spot and is crowded with many people, but there are few tourists who visit here.

View from Biei Town Mt. Tokachi This scenery can only be seen on days when it is clear and the climate at the top of the mountain is stable. There are many sightseeing spots in Biei Town, but this scenery can be seen right in front of Biei Station, so it is a hidden gem spot where you can easily experience the magnificence of nature.

Hello COOL JAPAN VIDEOS viewers. This time, we would like to introduce the "Bikuni Shrine Annual Grand Festival". The "Bikuni Shrine Grand Festival" is held in Bikuni Shrine for three days on July 4, 5, and 6 every year. We haven't been able to hold it for Coronavirus pandemic for several years, but it will finally be held this year. A traditional event that has existed since the Edo period and is the only Bikuni Shrine in Japan. Praying for a good catch and a good harvest, there is a sea crossing at the port, and a lively escort by mikoshi and floats in the urban area. The main event, "Tengu Fire Walking," will be held on the night of July 5 and 6 in the Bikuni Shrine precincts. When the tengu and mikoshi who have been touring the town return to the shrine, they burn the shrine in the precincts to remove the dirt. The brave young people carrying the mikoshi do not flinch and rush, "Wasse, Wasse." The sight of the tengu walking majestically in the midst of the sparks and the people carrying the mikoshi is absolutely magnificent. Please come and visit the Shakotan to feel this festival firsthand.

When I go to Hokkaido, I always stop by Shunkunitai. Perhaps because access is a little inconvenient in eastern Hokkaido, there are almost no people whenever I go. In winter, even the shallow part of the sea is frozen, and it is surprisingly quiet. It's like the end of the world.

Otofuke ran the melody line! However, it does not mean that music is played. I thought 😊 so at first. It is the name of the town road connecting Tokachigawa Onsen and the city of Otofuke, and is named after the "sound" of "Otofuke". There are many lovely scenery, such as the Otofuke countryside, the straight road leading to the mountain range, and the sunflower fields in autumn. With a total length of about 15 km, it is a very pleasant road to drive or cycle! There are ups and downs, so electric assist is recommended for bicycles. The Tourism Association offers assisted bicycles! Please run ♬ the Otofuke melody line. ⛔ Please do not enter the fields.

Cloudy sky from the morning on this day However, the clouds cleared all at once in the evening and I was able to see a beautiful sunset. Biei Hill

I wanted to see this scenery of Biei that I saw in photos before, so I searched for a place I was finally able to go. The hill where the Biei Tower is located The tower is Mima Ushi Elementary School.

Hello COOL JAPAN VIDEOS viewers. This time Shakotan we would like to introduce Cape Kamui at the tip of the peninsula. Cape Kamui, located a little over one and a half hours by car from Otaru, is designated as a Niseko-Shakotan-Otaru Kaigan Quasi-National Park and is the only marine park in Hokkaido. Just as the Ainu words "Shaku = Summer" and "Kotan = Village" came to be called "Shakotan", the summer scenery is wonderful, and the vivid blue sea has come to be called "Shakotan Blue". If you walk along the 770-meter-long promenade "Charenka Path" from the parking lot of the cape, you can reach the tip in about 30 minutes, and you can see the surroundings 300 degrees from near the tip. On the promenade "Charenka's Path" there is the legend of Minamoto no Yoshitsune. ~Charenka Legend~ Charenka, the daughter of the chief who has strong feelings for Yoshitsune. However, Yoshitsune left for the continent, and Charenka followed him to Cape Kamui, but Yoshitsune's ship went far offshore. Charenka, who was grieving, threw herself into the sea with words of resentment, saying, "If you pass through here with a Japanese ship and a woman on board, you will capsize." With sorrow and resentment, Charenka's body turned into Kamui Rock, and since then, whenever a ship carrying a woman approached the vicinity, it capsized, making Cape Kamui a place forbidden to women. This rule continued until the early Meiji period. There is still a "gate forbidden to women" on Cape Kamui, but now women can also go through that gate to the tip. However, since Cape Kamui is originally a windy area, on days when winds of 13 meters or more blow, the gate forbidden to women is closed and it is not possible to go to the tip. From June ~ July, the Ezo daylily flowers are in full bloom, and on foggy days, you can see a very fantastic scenery. The cape, named Kamui, which means "god" in the Ainu language, has a very beautiful sunset and a superb view where you can feel the presence of the gods. In 2004, the Shakotan Peninsula and Cape Kamui were selected as Hokkaido Heritage Sites.

【Butahage Roadside Station Otodanke Store】 At a popular pork bowl restaurant with its main store in Obihiro, I had a pork soup set. Not only was the pork bowl delicious, but the pork soup with rumbling vegetables served in a bowl larger than the bowl was very delicious! A dish where you can enjoy plenty of soybeans and vegetables, which are specialties of the Otofuke. The pork soup set was sold out before noon. Tokachi's vegetables are really delicious, so I would like 😊 everyone to eat them.

"TOMAKOMAI MIRAI FEST 2023" will be held on September 2nd Sat and 3rd Sun!! 🎉✨ Advance reception lottery of admission tickets through "Ticket Pia" has started! !! We look forward to seeing you there! 🥳
