Naraijuku, Nagano Prefecture in summer. It is said to be the longest post town in Japan, which runs about 1 km from north to south along the Nakasendo road. The scenery of the post town spread out as if it had traveled back in time to the Edo period. It is an old and beautiful Japanese cityscape that I would like to preserve for the future.

Nagano Prefecture Tsumagojuku I got permission to take pictures, etc., and the explanation of the person who guided me at the historical museum was polite and I learned a lot. However, when I photograph people who are working, I always think that it is the same for me, but with the declining birthrate, there is a part of me that is worried about whether it will be connected to the next generation and even the future generations

A nostalgic hearth that is hard to see now At the Wakihonjin Okutani of Tsumagojuku, you can see the nostalgic fireplace. Moreover, it is only in winter, and on a sunny day, you can see the fantastic light shining into the hearth. I went from Tokyo by highway bus to see only this scenery, but it was quite an emotional scenery. It is a view that I want to keep forever.

This photo was taken from the observation deck of Genbasan Park in Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture. Ueda City is famous as a place associated with the Sanada family, but it was also the setting for the Inugami clan of Masashi Yokomizo and the theatrical anime Summer Wars in recent years. The lights on the land surrounded by mountains are reminiscent of the people who coexist with the nature of Japan.

HELLO TO EVERYONE WHO WATCHES COOL JAPAN VIDEOS! This is Moseushi Town, Hokkaido. Hokkaido Uryu DistrictMoseushi Town is located almost in the center of Hokkaido and is blessed with clean water from the Ishikari River system, and is a town that has prospered in rice cultivation. It is the third smallest town in Hokkaido by area, but it is full of various charms. This will be my first posting, so I will introduce Moseushi Town and provide information on popular tourist spots and specialties! The climate weather of Moseushi Town in Hokkaido is an inland climate, so it can be about 30 degrees Celsius in summer and minus 20 degrees Celsius or less in winter. The snow melts around April in an average year. Please refer to it as a measure to protect yourself from the cold when traveling. Hokkaido's Moseushi Town has a wide range of delicious gourmet dishes made with local ingredients. Next, we will deliver information on special products! The best specialty of Moseushi Town in Hokkaido is delicious rice! The "secret of its deliciousness" lies in the method of rice cultivation. In Moseushi Town, "apple mint", a type of herb, is planted on the furrow path of the rice field. Since the insect repellent effect of herbs protects rice ears from pests, the use of pesticides is minimized, and low-pesticide rice cultivation can be realized. "Kitasaika" is one of the rice made by such low-pesticide rice cultivation. "Premium Kitasaika", which is vacuum-packed "Nanatsuboshi" Hokkaido brand rice with a protein value of 6.8% or less, which is only 30% of the total harvest produced in Moseushi Town, is also recommended! In addition, apple mint is harvested and used as an ingredient in specialty products such as "From the Village of Herbs herbal liqueur" and "100% natural herbal water".

When I went to Tsumago-juku, I felt the loneliness of autumn even more when I saw a cute border collie waiting for its owner while squealing lonely.
