Early morning in Kitaakita City, Akita Prefecture. It was a cold morning down to -10°C, but thanks to that, the air was very clear. No matter how many times you go, you will be healed by the calm atmosphere unique to the countryside.

Gotokuji. I'm shooting in winter, but the autumn leaves are still very beautiful. It seems that you will see various faces in each season. It has a calm atmosphere and few people, so it is recommended for those who want to enjoy a date slowly. The wheelbarrow is just like Japan!

There is actually a valley in Todoroki Ryokuchi. It's a very clear place with very clear air, and it's perfect for a date. There is a statue with a mysterious atmosphere a short walk away. You can take a different face every time you take a picture, so if you are a photographer, please go and take a picture.

I was stunned by my husband ♡ when I involuntarily blew on the wind chimes swaying in the wind At Kawasaki Daishi's wind chime market. The pattern of the yukata is also Japan, and the model me has a Japan face! laughs

There is a spot in Tokyo that is famous for beckoning cats, but Kawasaki is not to be outdone! Kawasaki Daishi also has a lot of beckoning cats! Cats 💛 full of personality

Yachimun Tsuboya yaki / Tsuboya yaki Yachimun dojo There is a Tsuboya yaki and Chimun dojo in a quiet place where the original scenery remains in a side street from Tsuboya Yachimun Street in Naha City. It is built of wood on old-fashioned Ryukyu red tiles, and a big Shisa is guarded in front. ^^ Here, you can make not only yachimun, but also shisa. There were many people who experienced it, and it seemed to be fun to hear their laughter. If I have the chance, I would definitely like to make my own Shisa!

A scenic spot in Tokyo!　At the public opening of the autumn leaves on Inui Street of the Imperial Palace, I took a picture of the moat in front of the dry gate. It was such a beautiful scenery that it was hard to believe that it was a scenery in Tokyo.

I was able to take a picture of the dedication of the dharma and the burning of the dharma that had served its role for one year.

This is a night view of the factory of Kosaka Refining Co., Ltd., located in Kosaka Town, Kazuno District, Akita Prefecture.

Ryukyu Indigo Dyeing Fabric / Okinawa Craft Forest It is an Okinawa craft forest in Tomigusuku, Tomigusu City, Ryukyu indigo dyeing experience workshop. A dye called mud indigo is made from a plant called Ryukyu indigo, and you can experience weaving using yarn dyed with it. It has been used as one of the dyes for various traditional textiles in Okinawa since the Ryukyu Dynasty. I will weave the yarn using a hand-made loom, but at first I had a hard time getting the point, but it turned out quite well ^^ It's a coaster I would be happy if there were people who would support Okinawa's traditional crafts through this experience corner.

Yachimun Tsuboya yaki / Tsuboya Yachimun Street It is one of the traditional crafts of Okinawa "Yachimun". Pottery is called yachimun in the Okinawan language. In Tsuboya Yachimun Street in Tsuboya, Naha City, there is a shop with a new design that is also liked by young people from traditional designs. Yachimun is characterized by a strong and delicate painting on a thick and sturdy model. The shop is Guma Guwa, which has a very stylish exterior and is popular for its designs with plant and animal motifs. When I stopped by the other day, I bought a small plate on impulse ^^ I hope that the traditional craft "Yachimun", which has been around since the Ryukyu Dynasty, and the traditional shape and beauty will be inherited in the future.

I was aiming for a large diamond mountain, and thanks to the clouds, I was able to take such a fantastic photo.

It is Ritsurin Park during the fresh green season. It is highly regarded from overseas and has many foreign tourists.

I took this photo at Daimonzaka on Kumano Kodo. It is very pleasant to walk on the stone steps while bathing in soft sunlight and negative ions. It has become famous on social media, but I can only hope that this nature will never be destroyed by human hands and will always be in a beautiful state.
