Atami Tourism Association
Mar. 16, 2024
On Saturday, March 16, we released firefly larvae into Hatsukawa within Atami Plum Garden. As an annual tradition, children from Umeenomachi helped us again! Japan is said to be home to around 50 species of fireflies. The species released in Atami is Japan’s representative firefly, the genji-botaru. We hatch the larvae, feed them kawanina (freshwater snails) about once a month while raising them, and release the final-instar larvae when they reach 2–3 centimeters. These larvae leave the river on humid nights from mid to late April, burrow into the soil, and form oval “soil cocoons.” Inside those soil cocoons they pupate and emerge as adults from late May to early June. This year we will hold “Evenings for Firefly Viewing” from Saturday, June 1 through Sunday, June 9. Please come and see the pale glow of the fireflies that can be seen only during this season.

Tokachigawa Onsen in the morning Hello! It’s March and getting a little warmer, but mornings here in Otofuke are still quite cold. The temperature at 5:00 a.m. on the day of the shoot was -12.1°C. River mist formed and Tokachi Chuo Bridge was hidden. After sunrise the river mist cleared and the bridge stood out clearly! By 7:00 a.m. we could see the majestic Hidaka Mountains clearly 😊 There was no wind that day, so we also saw hot air balloons rising. Even when it’s cold, seeing scenes like this lifts your spirits! Please come and see these seasonal views while you can 😊

Shosenkyo Tourism Association

Hello 😊 This is Waraji, a Koshu regional cuisine restaurant. In March, sunlight in Shosenkyo Gorge grows warmer, and you can gradually feel the arrival of spring. Waraji’s traditional house has been renovated from a historic building dating back to the Edo period (about 150 years ago). The pillars and tables are made from fine timber, so while you enjoy the warmth of the wood, please savor our signature dishes, starting with hoto. In particular, the eel skillfully prepared by our veteran chefs is thick and tender; when coated with the sweet-and-savory secret sauce, it will surely keep you reaching for your chopsticks. We look forward to welcoming you and serving you a warm meal from the bottom of our hearts 😃

Thirteen years have passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake This photo was taken on April 3, 2018 It is a row of cherry blossom trees in the night forest of Tomioka Town, Fukushima Prefecture. The Great East Japan Earthquake made it difficult to return home. Decontamination work has progressed, and in this year, Part of the tree-lined area has been opened to the public. At that time, only the opening of short straight roads Surrounding shops and houses are barricaded It was an enclosed ghost town I think I stayed for more than an hour. It's not a time to attract tourism There are almost no people who look like tourists. I only saw a few groups of people who seemed to be locals. I revisited it in March 2021. Tomioka Town became an outpost for reconstruction It's a very lively town. The open area has been greatly expanded. The branches of the cherry blossoms are beautifully selected. It was also prepared to be lit up. Realizing that reconstruction is progressing I remember how happy I was. The Noto Peninsula, where there is no fear of radiation, Reconstruction should be faster Good luck Hokuriku, good luck Tohoku.

Onomichi, Hiroshima Recommended spots in Hiroshima #Kannon off the coast Mont Saint-Michel 👈 I went to Kannon off the coast in Onomichi City, also known as Mont Saint Michel in Onomichi, to photograph the Milky Way! 📸 You can see 🏯 the castle-like Kannondo on a small island On this day, the tide was low, so I attacked 📸 at a super low angle aiming for the reflation of the tide pool I was able to hide the heavy machinery and intense light of the factory on the island or avoid it at a low angle. However, because of my poor eyesight, I could only see the Milky Way dimly, and I didn't notice the puddles, so I soaked my feet and soaked the inside of 💧 my shoes. I managed to take a picture, so I'm going to take it. The development is based on your Milky Way. If the timing is right, it seems that it can overlap with 🌕🏯 the full moon, but... 🤔 Note📝 18mm ISO2400 F2.8 SS15 sec 3500K pic control neutral
