In the Meiji period, when horses were indispensable for transportation and transportation in Hokkaido, "Banei horse racing" began by comparing power as the value of agricultural horses.

In addition, it is conveniently located 15 minutes by bus from Obihiro Station, and you can see about 70 kinds of animals at Obihiro Zoo, the second long-established zoo built in Hokkaido.

On May 27th, the remaining snow disappeared and I drove comfortably, and I took a picture of the sea of clouds at the highest altitude point Japan Shibutoge National Highway of the Shiga Kusatsu Kogen Route National Route 292, Japan which was closed during the winter. It is a famous spot. So I will introduce you to the secret places. There is a wide roadside strip about 1.5 km from the highest elevation point to Kusatsu. There is a small hill on the side where you park your car, and you can easily climb it. The 360-degree panorama from there is superb! The photo is aimed at the sea of clouds in the direction of Kusatsu Onsen.

"Kobe Foreign Settlement The Miracle of Building 38" Building No. 38 from the time of the foreign settlement in Chuo-ku, Kobe City, is a very retro Western-style building. The building is accessible from northeast to southwest, where a statue of Nike, the winged goddess of victory, is installed. According to the description below the statue ... Nike is the goddess of "production" and "victory" in Greek mythology, and it is said that since ancient times, it has been attached to the end of the ship as a goddess statue to pray for safe navigation and the realization of dreams. This 38th building is currently owned by the Daimaru Kobe store, but this Nike statue was installed here to pray for the recovery of not only the Kobe store but also the region, likening the building to a ship. In the morning darkness, the rising light shone in from the atrium sky, and the red bricks embedded in the surrounding floors emerged along with the statue of the goddess. Each of these red bricks has many heartfelt messages to Kobe! I feel energized when I come here, and this may 😊 be a real "hidden gem".

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video". Today, I would like to introduce DyJyn's post. The scenery of the plateau and the flavorful colors unique to film cameras are impressive. Located in Soni Village, Uda District, Nara Prefecture, Soni Kogen is a large plateau that spreads out at the foot of Mt. Kurisoyama, which straddles Mie and Nara prefectures. The Soni Highland covered with pampas grass and the golden scenery shown in autumn are also popular as photo spots. The ears usually begin to change color in mid-September, and are in full bloom around early October ~ late November. Not only in the daytime, but also in the sunset and the scenery sparkling is not to be missed. "Soni Kogen Onsen Okame no Yu" is a popular day-trip natural hot spring that was selected as the first place in the middle Japan hot spring tour. It is located about 4 minutes by car from the Soni Highlands, so why not stop by when you visit the Soni Highlands? You can enjoy the open-air bath with panoramic views and the hot spring baths in the wooden and stone bathrooms. In addition, at the Soni Kogen Farm Garden, which is adjacent to the Soni Kogen Onsen Okame no Yu, you can buy local specialties and locally caught vegetables. We also recommend lunch at a natural restaurant and original beer at the attached beer brewery "Mugi-no-kan". The campsite "Sun Village Soji" is also popular for its well-equipped facilities. There are 11 powered lawn sites and cottages, so you can enjoy your private space. It is about 10 minutes by car from Kame-no-yu and about 90 minutes from Osaka City, making it easy to access. ◆Soni Highland◆ 【Address】〒633-1202 Nara-ken, Uda District, Soni Village Tara Road 【Access】By car: Meihan National Highway I.C., about 45 minutes via Haibara 【Parking lot】Available for 150 cars Please see the official website for details. )

So that you can choose Miyakojima as a travel destination that will be a memory of your lifetime, we will deliver the charm of Miyakojima through Cool Japan Video! First of all, this is my first post, so I will introduce Miyako Island and popular tourist spots. Miyakojima, located in Okinawa Prefecture, is one of the Miyako archipelago Miyakojima, Ikemajima, Ōmijima, Irabu Island, Shimojijima, Kurimajima, Tarama Island, and Minna Island of eight large and small islands located 300 kilometers southwest of the main island of Okinawa, and is a remote island with a population of about 55,000. After all, the biggest attraction of Miyako Island is the beautiful sea. The crystal clear emerald green waters are ideal for diving and snorkeling, and are visited by many people from all over the world. Miyakojima has a hot and humid subtropical maritime climate, so the average temperature is around 15°C even in winter, which is warm throughout the year. There are many popular tourist spots on Miyakojima, but the top ones in the ranking are Yonaha Maehama Beach, Painagama Beach, Sunayama Beach, Irabu Bridge, Ikema Bridge, Kurima Bridge, Snow Salt Museum, and Miyakojima Marine Park. Yonaha Maehama Beach is said to be the most beautiful beach in the East with its highly transparent sea and 7 kilometers of pure white sandy beach. There are many tours of marine sports and marine activities such as snorkeling and diving, and you can see tropical fish up close. "Painagama Beach" is known as a hidden spot loved by locals, and it is the perfect place to spend a relaxing time. In addition, "Sunayama Beach" allows you to enjoy the pure white sand dunes and the beautiful cobalt blue sea. To enjoy the clear and beautiful sea, we recommend not only the beach, but also the drive of the bridge that connects Miyako Island to neighboring islands. The Irabu Bridge is the best spot to enjoy driving on the 3,540-meter-long bridge that opened in 2015 connecting Miyakojima and Irabu Island. It is the longest Japan bridge that can be crossed for free. In addition, the "Ikema Bridge" connecting Miyakojima and Ikema Island, surrounded by the "Ikema Blue" sea characterized by a deep blue gradation, and the "Kurima Bridge" connecting Miyakojima and Kurima Island can enjoy different superb views, so we recommend renting a car and enjoying the magnificent scenery. Miyakojima is also the birthplace of the fluffy powdered salt "snow salt", and at the popular tourist spot "Snow Salt Museum", you can learn about Miyakojima's traditional salt making techniques and have hands-on exhibits. In addition, "Miyakojima Marine Park" is a facility with a 4-meter sea floor where you can observe various fish from the window. While seeing fish and beautiful coral that can only be seen here, please experience the beauty of the sea of Miyako Island! As a memory of your trip to Miyako Island, please enjoy the special products recommended as souvenirs. The fruits of Miyakojima are especially popular, and the three "mangoes", "pineapples", and "passion fruits" are especially recommended. These fruits are grown in the rich nature and blessed climate of Miyako Island, and their taste is exquisite. In addition to the sightseeing spots and specialties introduced this time, Miyako Island is still full of charm. We will continue to send out information about such attractive Miyako Island in the future, so thank you! Please make special memories just for you here on Miyako Island.
