Autumn is one of the most beautiful season in Japan. This year we visited lake momiji in Nagano prefecture to enjoy the beauty of autumn and We were really stunned to see this beautiful lake.

Hiroshima Prefecture Shobara City | New Bakery News 🥖✨ Wakey Wakey Bakery, which just opened on Friday, October 17, 2025, is now featured on the Shobara Tourism Navi website! See spot details here 🔽 https://www.shobara-info.com/spot/5379... The shop name comes from the English word “Wakey,” meaning wake-up and used like a cheerful call to small children. It reflects the owner Rina Nagai’s personal touch—she studied abroad at a university in the State of California. Her wish is simple: to make bread that people want to eat as soon as they wake up, comforting and part of everyday life. The breads on offer use Rina’s original recipes, refined with techniques she learned while working at a bakery in the United States to bring out each item’s flavor. The most popular items are two character breads inspired by a Shiba Inu: Shiba-san (custard) and Nikukyuu Punch (chocolate). Inspired by childhood visits to bakeries with her parents, where character breads captured her imagination, she wanted to create breads that excite children. Basic Information Phone TEL 080-6068-0187 Address 1-1294-8 Nakahommachi, Shobara City, Hiroshima Prefecture Parking Available 1 space near the shop (No.7) Closed Monday; Wednesday to Thursday; Saturday to Sunday Hours Tuesday and Friday 10:00 until sold out

I went to see Wakayama Castle. The castle itself is a reconstruction after the original was destroyed almost a hundred years ago, but the real treasure is the Nishi-no-Maru garden. The fall colors were really vibrant, and were reflected on the pond. The peaceful atmosphere made it hard to believe that the castle grounds were surrounded by a city! Since its free for viewing, you can't beat the value. If I am ever in the area again, I want to see what it looks like in other seasons as well.

I stand quietly under the autumn tree, a lonely bicycle waiting for my rider’s return. Fallen leaves wrap around my tires like a rusty blanket, and I breathe in the gentle pause between journeys.

Yusaku Park autumn leaves ❚ Autumn foliage status as of November 20, 2025 Yusaku Park, located in Asaji Town, Bungoono City, Oita Prefecture It is one of Oita Prefecture’s representative autumn leaf viewing spots. Overall, the foliage is about 70% along. The area around Shinji Pond should be at its peak this week. Areas farther from the pond are also progressing in color. You can enjoy a palette of green, yellow, and red leaves, which are beautiful. Some trees are already starting to shed leaves that flutter in the wind, but on sunny days the colors look especially vivid. Why not head out to Yusaku Park and be wrapped in autumn hues? During the Yosaku Tourism Momiji Festival, local residents sell kusa-mochi (grass rice cakes) and other treats. If you see them, try one while you can. We will continue to provide updates on the foliage status. The Yusaku Park light-up runs through this week, from November 21 to 23. Some paths are dim at night, so we recommend bringing a flashlight. ■■■ Access to central Bungoono City from Fukuoka Prefecture, Kumamoto Prefecture, and others ■■■ About a 3-hour drive from JR hakata station in Fukuoka Prefecture About a 2-hour drive from JR kumamoto station in Kumamoto Prefecture About a 1 hour 20 minute drive from JR beppu station in Oita Prefecture About a 1 hour 20 minute drive from JR Yufuin Station in Oita Prefecture ■■■■■■■■■■■■ Introduce sightseeing and recommended spots in Kyushu, Bungoono City, Oita Prefecture ■■■■■■■■■■■■

The season of the sea of fog has arrived ✨ When you think of Miyoshi City in Hiroshima Prefecture, you can’t help but think of the sea of fog. As autumn deepens and mornings and evenings grow colder, this is truly the perfect time to see it. The whole town becomes wrapped in white mist, and a quiet moment passes as if you were above the clouds. To enjoy the sea of fog, start with the classic Mt. Takatani. From the observation deck you can watch the fog drift slowly as the morning sun gradually breaks through. One of its charms is how different it can look from day to day. If you prefer a relaxed view in nature, head to Okadayama. From the top of the mountain the fog spreads to the distant peaks, creating a calm, sea-like panorama. At Mount Tomishi, the contrast between the sea of fog and the ridgeline is striking. Depending on the day’s weather and the light, it reveals an entirely different face. The sea of fog is a special sight that appears only on mornings when the weather conditions align. That’s why the joy of encountering it is all the greater. It takes about two to four hours for the sea of fog to clear. The scene of the fog lifting is lovely in its own way.♪ On a chilly morning, set your alarm a little earlier and come to Miyoshi. Why not see the breathtaking views the fog creates in Miyoshi? *Photos are from past visits* ◼︎ Mt.
