When I first heard about shirakawago in 2015 from then had dream to visit this place someday. Finally my dream come true and today I visited the most picture perfect and iconic village of Japan. I feel an unexplainable joy and time goes very fast to enjoy the beauty. The beautiful and unique gassho-zukuri village on a pre-autumn rainy morning. The traditional house, the rice fields, cosmos flowers, the green mountains and the alleys of pines what else we need to see. The whole atmosphere is so beautiful.

Majin Tateiwa in Kyotango, which I really wanted to photograph before heading to Ine! When I arrived in the middle of the night, I was impressed to see the first Heavenly Way arch in my life. And what I wanted to try in this place located due north was the trajectory of the ? stars. It was around 2 a.m. in the middle of the night, so when night fell, I was quite impatient and it was pitch dark and difficult to explore the composition, so I had no choice but to soak in the river and get soaked, set a tripod in the center of the river, and it was still early April at that time, so I remember shooting while freezing, and although I had a hard time, it was like being in a planetarium, and there was a moment when I thought it was good when the photo was completed. There is a deep connection with Prince Shotoku's mother, Empress Mahito, and there is also a bronze statue to watch over this Tateiwa.

Finally managed to visit Shinjuku Gyoen over the weekend Been meaning to go here for a while now and finally had the chance The park itself was quite large, it was a bit surprising how much space it actually takes up in the city. There were a lot of cool stone lanterns and other structures to see throughout the park as well. The Taiwan building was pretty interesting to learn about. Apparently it was donated to Japan in 1924 by Japanese people living in Taiwan. The sign outside mentioned that it was a nice place to feel the breeze and it wasn't a lie either. It felt really nice standing on the balcony overlooking the pond. The breeze came through perfectly. Unfortunately we didn't bring a blanket with us to the park but there were a lot of other people laying down on the grass and it looked like a nice place to have a picnic. We stopped at one of the rest areas and grabbed some drinks as well. I got a lemonade drink that was really refreshing and she got a café latte. We took a quick tour through the greenhouse at the end as well and it had a lot of cool plants inside. I found this flower with grey leaves that I thought was really cool looking. I definitely want to return during autumn to see how the park looks after the leaves change!

【Concert on the beach】 I went to Kamikawa Beach in Kagoshima Prefecture. It is a famous place for the sunset and shadow play on the Satsuma Peninsula on the opposite bank, but on this day, I dared to go under the blue summer sky! It was an exquisite contrast between the deep blue sky, the glittering water surface, and the black of the shadow play! It's like you can hear the music of a concert... Shadow play seems to change depending on the season, so I would like to visit again in autumn. There is also a campsite right next to it, which is also recommended for campers!
