Minato Mirai's Ferris Car 🎡 The contrast between green and red shines in the night sky. I like the view from this angle, which you can't experience just by riding the Ferris Car.

Lately, squirrels have been coming to play often in the backyard behind the guide center 😊 When I see them, I can’t help but take pictures! Their cute little looks are so soothing 🥰

Hello, I'm Minamoto. Shosenkyo Gorge is growing warmer day by day, and the cherry blossom season has arrived! Many people walking outside are already wearing short sleeves. What I recommend this time is a one-way trekking route of about 3 km! This season feels wonderful and is perfect for walking! First, park your car in the prefectural parking lot and stroll along the promenade. Walk slowly while taking in the granite rock faces, strange rock formations, and the flowing river... The whole Shosenkyo area is a power spot, with a "dragon vein" of energy flowing from Mt. Fuji that purifies your mind and body!!! After your walk, enjoy shopping and dining in the Takinoue area and along Crystal Street. Shosenkyo is a nature-rich spot about a 25-minute drive from JR Kofu Station, making it an easy visit from Tokyo. If you have the time, please come to Shosenkyo to recharge your energy! We look forward to seeing you.

Introducing hands-on tours you can enjoy in Hokkaido’s Tokachi region 😄 ~Enjoyed on a wooden deck at the farm~ Savor Matsuhashi Beef BBQ at Matsuhashi Farm in Sarabetsu Village Matsuhashi Farm has run livestock operations in Sarabetsu Village for over 90 years. The farm manages every stage from breeding and fattening to sales, and also grows wheat and soybeans. Yasuhiro Matsuhashi, the fourth-generation owner, is rethinking Tokachi agriculture, shifting from yield- and income-focused farming to sustainable, self-sufficient practices. His current theme is stockpiling and seed preservation so the next generation will not go hungry. The cattle raised by Mr. Matsuhashi are called Matsuhashi Beef. They focus on preserving the beef’s natural lean flavor with minimal marbling. This plan lets you taste that proud beef on a BBQ terrace built on the farm grounds. From the wooden deck you can see vast fields. Eating locally raised beef amid a panorama that seems to blend into the fields makes the flavor especially memorable.
