Naraijuku, Nagano Prefecture in summer. It is said to be the longest post town in Japan, which runs about 1 km from north to south along the Nakasendo road. The scenery of the post town spread out as if it had traveled back in time to the Edo period. It is an old and beautiful Japanese cityscape that I would like to preserve for the future.

Naraijuku, Nagano Prefecture, has been selected as an Important Traditional Buildings Preservation District in Japan. This post town, which is also a Japan heritage site, not only retains the remnants of the Nakasendo road of the Edo period, but also imbues the buildings with the wisdom of the old Japan life. You can enjoy nostalgia and rustic beauty. On the day of my visit, it was just snowing powder, and I was able to enjoy a fantastic moment. Japan's traditional townscape that I want the world to know about.

The bell of the hour dyed in the magic hour This is located in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture 　　　　　　　　　　　"The Bell of Time" It is the most famous tourist spot in Saitama. It is full of people all year round, and the bell of the hour has become a symbol. Tangled up 📸 with Starbucks during magic hour Location: Kawagoe City, Saitama

This is the first time I visited Ouchijuku. The night before, the surrounding mountains had its first snow, and the planting in the post town became the first ice. The sky was cloudy, so I arrived a little depressed, but it was early in the morning and there were few people, but the few trees with autumn leaves that remained warmed my feelings. The people of the post town were also very kind, and my desire to support Fukushima became stronger. What I can do now is to convey the charm of Tohoku as much as possible.

Kawagoe million light festival. Kawagoe is known as little edo or coedo. This little old style or traditional Japanese city was illuminated with lanterns. The whole atmosphere looks so beautiful. One can even see the moon over building roof. All peoples are in festive mood. Several street performance as well as stage performances were there.

No season is offseason for Japan. In summer there are so many thing to see and do here. Last weekend I enjoyed thousand light festival at Kawagoe where the warehouse area was looked absolutely gorgeous for the lights and other stalls and stage activities. Everyone was enjoying and most of the local people wear traditional cloths too. It was truly a delightful experienced.

It is famous for its "卯建" architecture and is also an old town that was once a distribution center for indigo dyeing, and the town of Waki in Mima City, Tokushima Prefecture. One of Japan's three most violent rivers, the Yoshino River, is full of nostalgic and melancholy gushing rivers, which makes you imagine the bustling scene of ancient times.

Hiroshima Tomonoura, Fukuyama (Recommended spots in Hiroshima) #Tomonoura 👈 @bingolife8 One piece 📸 with a view of the night light and the Seto Inland Sea I visited the kominka next to the night light.

"Kobe Foreign Settlement The Miracle of Building 38" Building No. 38 from the time of the foreign settlement in Chuo-ku, Kobe City, is a very retro Western-style building. The building is accessible from northeast to southwest, where a statue of Nike, the winged goddess of victory, is installed. According to the description below the statue ... Nike is the goddess of "production" and "victory" in Greek mythology, and it is said that since ancient times, it has been attached to the end of the ship as a goddess statue to pray for safe navigation and the realization of dreams. This 38th building is currently owned by the Daimaru Kobe store, but this Nike statue was installed here to pray for the recovery of not only the Kobe store but also the region, likening the building to a ship. In the morning darkness, the rising light shone in from the atrium sky, and the red bricks embedded in the surrounding floors emerged along with the statue of the goddess. Each of these red bricks has many heartfelt messages to Kobe! I feel energized when I come here, and this may 😊 be a real "hidden gem".

Onomichi / Hiroshima When I was walking around while casually looking at the cherry blossom trees, there was a beautiful clock, and I took this photo without thinking. Onomichi was all good for the cityscape, ramen, and sea, so ✌️ I would like to go there again!

Historic. Photogenic. Fantastic place to see and diverge into. Mesmerising. #Nagano #Mountainside #Village

Saitama Prefecture went to the bell of Kawagoe. I enjoyed the old-fashioned buildings and delicious food in abundance!

Gero Onsen / Gifu Gero-Hot spring / Gifu I visited last summer. It was very hot, but I was excited 😆 by the townscape unique to the quaint hot spring town.

This is higashichaya district. A chaya is basically “tea house “... during the edo period this place was crowded with rich people who came here for entertainment. Mainly geisha performance were the prime attraction. there are two more chaya districts popular in kanazawa. The other two are nishichaya and kazuemachi.. love that experienced and highly recommended place to visit in 2023.

Hida Furukawa / Gifu Hida-Furukawa / Gifu Located in Gifu Prefecture, the Hida Furukawa River is famous as Little Kyoto along with Hida Takayama.

Series "Kobe, rediscovered" The fourth stage is the "Silver Knight" who roams the modern city. This is the former settlement of Kobe, which has an exotic atmosphere. In the 25th building, there is a very beautiful knight who stops the eyes of people passing by. This is a show window of a luxury brand store, but is it full-scale? ?? I couldn't help but stop and look at the knight statue. Kobe Settlement is a settlement for foreigners who moved to the trading port of Kobe in the Meiji era. It was once a gorgeous area of Western culture, and today it is a fashion hub with luxury brand stores. The neighborhood is calm and crowded, and there is a very chic atmosphere. I think you can enjoy relaxing shopping or window shopping and fully enjoy your adult time.

This is the filming location of the morning drama "Asaga has come". Imai Town. There is also a house that was used in a commercial for "Iemon". Nice townscape. There are also fashionable cafes. Settles down.

I went to the Nagoya City Arimatsu Festival this summer, and I was very impressed that the yukata and kimono of Arimatsu shibori were displayed everywhere in the old townscape and matched the old townscape.

In August, I went to Tokyo for the first time with my high school friends during my university summer vacation! This is one photo I took when sightseeing in Asakusa. Asakusa only had the image of Kaminarimon, but there are also streets with such a taste.

Festival after Gion Festival I shot it in Yoiyama. It is a 360-degree camera shooting. I procession for the first time in three years The reopened Gion Festival A lot of people Visited.

A bronze statue in Asago City, Hyogo Prefecture, at Himemiya Shrine. Does the snow-covered figure look like a girl celebrating her coming-of-age ceremony? It was so cute that I involuntarily released the shutter.

The old townscape of Hida Takayama is visited every year. It is a sight that can be seen at dusk. Last year was a difficult year due to many things, but we were able to see a wonderful snowy landscape at the last minute.
