It rained until 3 p.m., and after that, due to the unusual weather of clear weather, the Kintai Bridge was almost uninhabited. The blue sky is so beautiful that if you take a normal shot, the blue sky will stand out more than the Kintai Bridge, so I took a picture with a little filter. I think it made a cool impression.

Hello 😃 This is Yamanashi Wine Kingdom Senga Falls. It's July and the heat is getting more intense—how is everyone doing? If you go down to Senga Falls, a sightseeing spot in Shosenkyo Gorge, the negative ions and the waterfall's spray will sweep the heat away and create a refreshing coolness. From Yamanashi Wine Kingdom you can even see directly above the falls! There are many photo spots in the Takiue Area, so please capture a memory or two 😌 Especially popular is the giant salamander mascot! Many guests love to take photos with it☺️ By the way, there are said to be salamanders living in Shosenkyo Gorge…? If you meet one, it might bring you good luck! Also, Yamanashi Wine Kingdom launched a new orange wine in July! Made from white grapes using red wine production methods, this wine is crisp yet lets you enjoy the tannic nuance from the skins. Please serve it well chilled 😀 We sincerely look forward to your visit ☺️
