The five-storied pagoda of Ueno park looks very beautiful in every season. Ueno park is one of the most popular spots that hardly need any recommendations yet I want to recommend it because sometimes in a rush we somehow overlook a few things or spots that's why this post. Amid the colorless nature, the red pagoda and flower-printed Japanese umbrella in front of it formed a strangely beautiful scene.
Although the pagoda is almost covered in flowers during the sakura season, once on a peony flower exhibition day when I went there I stopped after seeing such a sight.

A much less known place in Tokyo. Several tourist and local people usually visit Kama kura to see the great budha but unfortunately many of them don't know this great budha of Tokyo. This great budha of Tokyo is selected as one of the top 100 tourist spot in in new Tokyo. Additionally this is the 3rd largest bronze statue of budha in Japan. This is located in Akatsuka of Itabashi city. Almost no crowd but very well organized place. I highly recommend tourists to visit Tokyo daibutsu during their stay in Tokyo.

"Kobe, rediscovered" The sixth stage of the series will deliver the art port city of Kobe. The large hotel is located on a protruding wharf in the harbor and is moored by various large ships such as luxury liners. I like it best when a sailing ship is docked Japan Maru in the photo, and the port already has the atmosphere of an overseas resort! The hotel's wave-inspired design is very artistic, and the sailing ship that moves with the power of the wind is truly the ultimate in functional beauty. And in the background, the sunrise of the great nature was painted. At this time of the morning, people are walking and running... I often use Twitter, and when I posted photos of this hotel, I often received replies saying that it was a place of memories. I pray that the city of people, the sky, and the sea will continue to create many memories in the future.

Nature itself is a treasure to any true traveler. But this place is literally a treasure hunt spot in Japan. Itoigawa's Jade Beach is a special place and one can guess that by its name. This beautiful pebble beach stretches 4 km from east to west and jade stones wash onto the shore after a day of strong waves, and tourists can be seen enjoying themselves searching for fresh jade stones. We also picked up some stones and the experience was truly amazing.

Ice bubble in Hokkaido, Lake Nukabira. It is a rare phenomenon in which air bubbles are trapped in a frozen lake. This time, it was extremely cold below -20°C because it was shooting at dawn, but when I found it, the cold was blown away! The Taushubetsu River Bridge is also famous in the Lake Nukabira, but this is also deteriorating and it is not known how long you will be able to see the current 11 arches, so it is a recommended spot right now!
