Autumn is my favorite season in Japan. This is because of this aesthetic view. Enjoying the autumn from ropeway is very good but the view of autumn with the ropeway is amazing. The autumn valey in Yuzawa kogen ski resort is one of the best place to enjoy the autumn. Over the valley there is a ropeway service which looks like this image.

I may not know the name of the hill, but witnessing the Naeba Plateau in the fall is truly a breathtaking experience. It transforms into a stunning tapestry of autumn colors, as if it were aflame with beauty. The national highway that traverses the area adds to the scene, leading one through a charming tunnel that highlights nature's grandeur. It's a wonderful reminder of how harmoniously the landscape and human elements coexist.

After shooting in Hakusan Park in search of other subjects, I looked up to go home and saw the shadow of a blue maple!!　Wow~~ I hurriedly took out the camera again and released the shutter.

Jade beach in Itoigawa (Niigata Prefecture) is a hidden gem of Japan. The beach looks good and is a place for bathing and a perfect destination for a natural treasure hunt. If you are lucky then you might find Jade on this beach. Try to stay until sunset if possible; you might see a stunning sunset view.

The other day I visited Niigata Prefecture for work, and in between work, I had a little sightseeing and delicious fish from the area. It was my first time in Niigata, so everything was fresh and I was excited for two days. [1st photo] The throat bowl of "Sushi / Kappo Marui" in Niigata City. The bowl with plenty of roasted acorn is delicious that you can never taste in Tokyo! It is a gem that I would like you to eat when you visit Niigata. [2nd photo] Vast Japan sea! I could see Sado Island in the distance. [3rd photo] At Niigata Kengokoku Jinja, where I suddenly stopped by, there were many people visiting at Shichigosan.
