Near Anaga Port in Minamiawaji. From this place, you can overlook Onaruto Bridge, Naruto Strait and Harimanada. The winter winds were strong and the Harima Sea was rough.

It is a sunset on the Shonan Kugenuma coast. The rare sun pillar was wonderful.

Introducing the photos posted on "Minna no Post"! This is a pickup post on the inbound tourism information SNS "COOL JAPAN VIDEOS". Today, I would like to introduce the post "Mt. Tokachi" by "Keisuke Tojo". The harmony of the snowy landscape and countless stars is a mysterious photo. The Mt. Tokachi is the main peak of the Tokachi mountain range, which straddles the towns of Biei, Kamifurano and Shintoku in Kamikawa District, Hokkaido. With an altitude of 2,077 meters, it is a famous tourist spot as one of the 100 famous mountains in Japan. In addition, since it is an active volcano that is still active, it is necessary to check the volcano information before climbing, such as whether there are any signs of an eruption. When the weather is nice, you can see Mt. Asahidake, Mt. Biei, and Biei Fuji Mt. Tokachi. On the way from Shirokane Onsen to the Mt. Tokachi, Mt. Tokachi is a recommended viewing spot. From the walking path in the vicinity, you can enjoy the superb view of the autumn leaves and just after the first snow. There are several trailheads in Mt. Tokachi, and the Mt. Tokachi trailhead and the Mt. Tokachi hot spring trailhead are relatively beginner-friendly routes. It takes about 6.5~7 hours round trip and is a route where you can enjoy a large panoramic view. There are plenty of accommodation facilities in the vicinity. Among them, "Mt. Tokachi Onsen Kamihoroso" is a popular facility by word of mouth. Built at an altitude of 1200m, the location is outstanding. You can enjoy the large public bath that flows directly from the source made of all wood. With good access to Biei and Asahiyama Zoo, it is also an ideal base for sightseeing. ◆Mt. Tokachi◆ 【Access】 Access to Mt. Tokachi hot springs From Kamifurano Station on the JR Furano Line, take the Kamifurano Town Bus to Tokachi Onsen Bus Stop, about 50 minutes. 【Parking lot】Available for about 70 cars Please check the official website for details.

I went to Jigokudani Monkey Park in winter. It was difficult because it was a little far from the parking lot, but the monkeys soaking in the hot spring were very cute.

At Nijo Castle in Kyoto, it is a clear stream garden lit up. I was drawn into a fantastic world.

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video". Today, I would like to introduce "Daishi Okamoto's post "Tadami Line and Snowy Scenery". The Tadami line surrounded by a world of white silver is an impressive piece. The Tadami Line is a local line 65 km after the fastest speed connecting Koide Station (Uonuma City, Niigata Prefecture) to Aizuwakamatsu Station (Aizuwakamatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture). It was damaged by heavy rain in July 2011, but on October 1, 2022, it was restored and resumed operation for the first time in 11 years. The Tadami Line, which runs through nature, is full of spectacular scenic spots. The first bridge, which has an attractive contrast between the iron bridge and nature, is especially popular, and you can enjoy the superb view of the four seasons. In addition, there are plenty of photo spots such as the 2nd ~ 4th bridge and the glasses bridge featuring a concrete arch bridge. It is a tourist destination where railway fans from all over the country gather. The Tadami Line is a hot topic for autumn leaves, but the snowy scenery in winter is also recommended. Between Aizu-Nakagawa Station ~ Aizukawaguchi Station, the snow-covered Oshi village is one of the viewpoints. From the 5th Tadami River Bridge, if the conditions are right, you can enjoy the world of white silver reflected in the Tadami River. ◆Tadami Line◆ 【Address】Fukushima, Niigata Starting point: Aizuwakamatsu Station End point: Koide Station

Hotel Okura Kobe's garden. On a day when snow piled up in Kobe, the Japan garden was covered in snow. Hotel Okura Kobe has excellent buildings, rooms, meals, and the service of the staff. I love this hotel, I recommend it.

Snowy Hokkaido Shrine "Hokkaido Jingu" in Maruyama, Sapporo This is a venerable shrine that many people visit throughout the year. The scenery of the precincts changes depending on the season. Cherry blossoms and plum blossoms in spring, fresh green in summer, autumn leaves in autumn, snow in winter This time, I combined the day when it snowed like a feather and Hokkaido Shrine.

Introducing the post of the "Rising Sun ASAHI GROUP CHAIN" official account! The fantastic atmosphere is superb. Aoike in Shirokane, Biei Kamikawa-gun, Hokkaido, is a popular tourist spot that represents Biei. The water in the pond containing aluminum turns bright blue and is also popularly called "Biei Blue".

It is a ferry from Osaki Shimojima to Osakikamijima. Proceed through the glow of the morning sun. You can see the Kurushima Bridge over there.

Kure City I am looking towards Kurushima Bridge from Osaki Shimojima. It was a very impressive sight.

Winter and the beauty of branches The shape of the branches that look chaotic however Fill up space Overlap as little as possible Beautiful arrangement as if it were designed Ideal light and air flow I guess I can take it in. So efficient in 3D and Aesthetically beautiful creations can only be created by nature I don't think it's possible You can only see it now that winter is withering Beautiful branches

★ The 15th COOL JAPAN VIDEOS Photo Contest is currently being ★ held under the theme of "Recommended Japan Sightseeing Spots in 2023" We look forward to receiving many applications from you! This time, we will introduce Take's post! It is a piece that captures the nature unique to Hokkaido. Lake Shikotsu in Chitose City, Hokkaido, is a caldera lake formed by a reservoir of water in a depression created by an eruption about 40,000 years ago. Activities include canoeing and winter-only ice walks. ◆Lake Shikotsu◆ 【Address】Chitose City, Hokkaido 【Access】 Sapporo Station→ Shikotsuko Onsen about 70 minutes Please check the official website for details.

Awaji Island Oiso, pre-dawn view. Osaka Bay had a very beautiful color.

It will be a Setsha located in Shiroishi Ward, Sapporo City, at a power spot called Kamyori Valley of Shiroishi Shrine. Shiroishi Shrine is the second most popular shrine after Hokkaido Jingu Shrine with many first-time visitors. I love it and visit it a few times a year. Summer is also beautiful, but the vermilion shrine is beautiful in the pure white scenery of winter, and although it is cold, I go there after the heavy snowfall. There are many benefits, but more than that, I feel like I go there because I want to experience beauty. The explanation on the official website of this Shiroishi Fushimi Inarisha is named Shiroishi Fushimi Inarisha with the shrine on September 9, 1977 (Showa 52). The main deity is Inari Okami. I also visited Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine in Kyoto, and although it is certainly small in scale, I still feel the power. There are many Setsha shrines in Kamyoriya, but they all have power, so I would like you to visit carefully.

The approach to Oku-Nikko Onsenji Temple in Tochigi Prefecture Snow covered in lanterns lined up, It's like wearing a matching hat. A wooden path leads from the middle of the approach to the Yumoto source. The view from the wooden path is also superb.

Among the shrines in Sapporo City, it is especially known as a "power spot for matchmaking". The god enshrined is "Tennokogu Yamamei", which is also the great-grandson god of Emperor Amaterasu. The reason why it is called Yahiko Shrine is It is located in [Yahiko Village] in Nishikanbara District, Niigata Prefecture, and it is said that this is because Mt. Yahiko is enshrined as a sacred mountain. The reading of the shrine is "Noyahiko", but the place name is read as "Yahiko", No, no, Yahiko, it seems that it is called by both names. The god of learning, Sugawara no Michishinko, is also enshrined here, and is called the Heavenly God of Sapporo. It's exam season, so why don't you go visit us?

Disappearing into the snow... In the pouring snow, the Tadami Line heads to Aizu. Photo taken on 2023/01/21. * The photo is a composite.

Ice guardrails created by nature The shooting location was Lake Shikotsu in Chitose City, Hokkaido, and it was early in the morning when a big cold wave of -15°C hit. The spray of Lake Shikotsu, which was rough by strong winds, fell on the fence and gradually formed icicles. The many icicles that form all over the fence are like guardrails. You can see the harshness and beauty of nature uniformly

While shooting the sunset and torii gate at Lake Hamana in Shizuoka Prefecture, a boat happened to pass by and I clicked the shutter with enthusiasm. The timing was right if it was a little slower, but it's not easy to do that. It was fun again.

Togakushi Shrine in winter The cedar trees on the approach to Okusha looked even cooler. Okusha is closed in winter, so I would like to visit it in spring.

This is the scenery of Qingdao in Miyazaki Prefecture. To the clear sky and the blue of the sea, The bumpy rock surface stood out. Be careful not to slip, try to stand on the rocks ... The pattern spreads as if carved by a sculptor on a whim. Gunyagunya, Pokopoko... This is creepy and a little scary... When I returned to the inn and investigated, it was a "demon's laundry rock" that had been built over a long period of time. Qingdao is an island formed by the accumulation of shells, so There are many small shells and sea grass at your feet...! When you arrive at Aoshima Shrine, The jungle-like landscape spreads out. This is a shrine, right? ... I think. Passing through the arches of plants and trees, you feel the excitement of an adventurer. With nature like a tropical country, It's like a combination of Japan cultures... It was a wonderful place where you can enjoy the extraordinary in a spacious space. I would like to go there again.
