Snow-covered Kinkakuji Temple　 2021.12.18 Where I went with studless tires for the first time There was still snow from the night before.

Matsumoto Castle on a heavy snowy day The Chuo Expressway was closed to traffic, so I took a big detour on the Kanetsu Road and entered Matsumoto on the lower road from Azumino. It took me 6 hours to get there in 3 hours (laughs).

Matsumoto doesn't snow as much as Tokyo The day after the heavy snowfall was a blue sky. It was the first time I saw Matsumoto Castle with a frozen moat.

Tulips are a timeless beauty. With their vibrant colors, graceful shapes, and subtle fragrances, they have become one of the most beloved flowers in the world. During my visit to Toyama, I went to the Nyuzen flower field, one of the largest tulip fields in Japan. The field boasts a fantastic backdrop of Snowcapped northern Alps.

It is still snowing in April in Hokkaido. It's almost time to play in (T_T) the snow, which I love Play until (^^) the sun goes down

Spring in the terraced rice fields of Gamo, Tokamachi City, Niigata Prefecture. There was a fuki on the ridge of the terraced rice fields where the snow remained.

Find a direction with less noise. The weather was sunny. Because the air was so clear It was a perfect day to walk in the forest of the Snow Palace. I walked a lot and found a treasure It's not about food or hot drinks. The children seemed a little disappointed, but they got venison stew as a souvenir. Personally, I met him at a summer camp It was also nice to be able to reunite with university students.

This place is often compared to the renowned Tokyo station by many tourists. It used to be the headquarters of the Ministry of Justice but now serves as the Institute of Legal Affairs and the Legal Library. The Meiji period construction was designed by two competent German architects. Despite being damaged in World War II, it was successfully restored. The symmetrical and majestic architecture of the building is simply breathtaking. The European style of the Meiji period is beautifully represented in this structure and looks even more stunning during the rare snowfall in Tokyo. Exploring new places in this bustling city during the snow season is an experience worth having.

In Shintoku Town, where there were many days of small spring sunshine this month, the snow that continued to fall yesterday was 45 cm. The town suddenly turns into a world of silver and white.

It is a World Heritage Site, but it is lit up three times a year. The other day, there was a winter illumination event, so I went there. This time, I made a reservation half a year ago, so I was able to stay lodging in a 200-year-old gassho-zukuri minshuku, and thanks to that, I was able to fully enjoy the nostalgic original scenery of Japan. In addition to the illumination at night, the quiet early morning walk, which is only possible for those who stayed at the lodging, was exceptional.

[Snow falling from the roof] This is the first winter spent in a snowy area. I was surprised by the thick snow on the roof. Watching the snow gradually shift and fall It was also refreshing to see. When it comes down, it is fluffy Soft snow as if dancing. But the snow on the roof that has piled up When it falls, it makes a heavy "thump" sound. If it hits a car directly, it will be sticky. As the temperature rises, there is a risk of falling snow. Please be careful.

When humans team up with nature to create something, it becomes more intriguing. The Lake Shikotsu ice festival is a perfect example of this. Hokkaido's crystal clear water lake serves as the primary source for crafting marvelous ice sculptures.
