Travelling become more interesting when you get a chance to look it more closely. During our trip to Kurashiki we heard so many stories of those narrow alleys and traditional houses and at the same time we saw few people roaming there in traditional attire. It was really a treat for eyes as if the history open itself in front of our eyes.

Near Tahara Beach, Wakayama If you drive for about 15 minutes in the direction of Mie from the bridge pile rock, you can see the morning mist near Tahara Beach. It depends on the weather, but when I saw this scene, I was fantastic and moved by the fact that the ship was covered in morning fog and it was ? like a scene like Pirates of the Caribbean.

Wakayama Prefecture Bridge Pile Rock I couldn't visit the bridge pile rock that I couldn't visit because I didn't have time on this trip to Wakayama I want ?? to see the starry sky here someday.

"I've never been to a local tourist attraction before," my mother said, and this photo was taken when I traveled to my hometown. The retro advertisement on the ceiling of the theater was very cute. There were many people shooting from directly below the ceiling, but when I looked at it from various angles, the contrast between red and blue was beautiful, so I shot from diagonally below. When I learned that there was such a precious and wonderful building in my hometown, I fell in love with the local area even more. There are not many left this year, but I want to go on a trip with my mother again.

My first sakura tour in Kawazu, Shizuoka ? The sakura trees along the river is just a mesmerizing view ??

It has been my dream to see a line of Sakura trees eversince I was a kid. There are no sakura trees where I grew up, so i only see them on TV. Then in 2017, I had a sakura tour in Kawazu, Shizuoka. ? Kawazuzakura is one of the earliest type of sakura to bloom. This photo was taken in February 2017, and many trees were in full bloom.

Nagaokakyo City, Kyoto Prefecture, Yanagitani Kannon (Yangtani Temple), which is said to be beneficial for healing eye diseases, is a temple with beautiful flower hand water. Each of the four seasons is devised and very splendid. In October, pumpkins were decorated with Halloween motifs. Access is a little inconvenient deep in the mountains, but I would like people from all over the world to experience the actual scenery.

I still remember going south on Route 1 on a road bike and seeing good weather under the blue sky of Lake ? Sapporo in front of Jozankei! I wanted to take a picture with this scenery and did my best!

One of the most scenic destination where you can enjoy the thrill and peace of mind at the same time. Every turn of the road offers something overwhelming. Kurobe Gorge gave us some great memories one of which is this train ride. The trolley train experience was totally enjoyable. Hope to visit again.

Shiohiki salmon is a salmon dish that represents Murakami City, Niigata Prefecture. The ingredients are only selected salmon and natural coarse salt, and are exposed to the cold northwest wind for three weeks, where they slowly dry while fermenting, maturing, and condensing the umami. The scenery of 1,000 salted salmon hanging has become a winter tradition in Murakami. It is a scenery that reminds me every time I taste a salmon dish.

Ashino Park, which has been selected as one of the Japan's "Top 100 Cherry Blossom Spots," has the Osamu Dazai Literary Monument, a bronze statue, a monument to the birthplace of the Tsugaru shamisen, and more than 1,500 cherry trees, including Somei Yoshino. Especially near Ashino Koen Station, the Tsugaru Railway runs through a cherry blossom tunnel that spreads out to cover the tracks, and the sight is an unforgettable memory of the trip.

Recently we had some different kind of travel experience during our Niigata tour. We heard about the jade beach of Itoigawa and just for fun went there to enjoy real life treasure hunt experience. The day was sunny and the beautiful stone beach shine bright. Frankly speaking if you stand near the sea shore call colorful pebbles look like expensive stones ? and me and my wife collected a lot of stones regardlessly shape and color. This was our first time jade collecting experience and we knew a few things so we didn't expect to get any. Till we dont know if we have any jade or not but few of our stones looks translucent with bright green color under flash light. We shared one of it. Jade or not, for us it is a priceless stone as we have a lot of happy memories with it.

Gunma Travel Ikaho Onsen is a popular tourist spot representing Gunma Prefecture along with Kusatsu Onsen. From the 365 stone steps, you can see the mountains around Gunma Prefecture.

Shirasaki Marine Park in Wakayama, a nostalgic date spot I visited with my mom before I visited this time too, so I took a selfie until dawnUnfortunately, I couldn't see the Milky Way, but the stars are very beautiful here and the white rock surface is otherworldly and mysterious ??.

This photo was taken in Kimitsu City, Chiba Prefecture. It was raining the day before, so the conditions for the sea of clouds were prepared and I went to take pictures.

I went to the Shimanami Kaido on a very hot day. It was impressive that there were many people enjoying cycling. I also want to cycle during the cooler months.

This was my first autumn experience ever and I thanks myself for choosing Aomori for that. It was absolutely stunning and surreal. Till now after visiting a dozons of place, the memories of Oirase gorge is still fresh.

◈Uchimura Kanzo Memorial Stone Church I went here on my first visit in Karuizawa. The church is simple yet artistic on the outside, and it's very solemn in the inside. As a Catholic myself, I felt that I was talking directly to God as I pray inside. This church makes me want to explore more of the beautiful architectures in Karuizawa.

◈Shiraito Falls in Karuizawa, Nagano Shiraito means "white thread" in Japanese. And, I agree that the water here looks like white threads, and it's just so relaxing to be here.

Tsukiji's sushi restaurant menu Datsufu ?

The other day, I went to Tsuyagawa, Kaizu City, Gifu Prefecture, and I took a picture of a red spider liliies in full bloom with flowers and a boatman in full bloom.

The identity of any city is the famous architecture, location, cultural etc. Sensoji is one of the prime identity of this city and from here we can see another current architectural wonder Skytree. One stands for the old and cultural part of this city and the other one is the symbol of Japan's modernity.

Toro soba noodles eaten at the top of Mt. Takao I soaked ? into my tired body

One of the most scenic destination where you can enjoy the thrill and peace of mind at the same time. Every turn of the road offers something overwhelming. Kurobe Gorge gave us some great memories one of which is this train ride. The trolley train experience was totally enjoyable. Hope to visit again.

Senjojiki in Wakayama Prefecture It was difficult on this day with a strong cold, but the rock surface here is always wonderful ?.
