By rules, I have to post pictures individually for the contest. But in real life, I would arrange all the Tower photos into one post. It was a challenge to photograph the Tokyo Tower from different locations in just one day, but it was the highlight of my trip. If you are prepared, I 180% would recommend this challenge.

I visited the temple at night, avoiding the morning crowd. It was cold, but the time was well spent. I enjoyed the atmosphere, which allowed me to think and create different shots. Beautiful city!

[English/Japanese] Mitsuhashi, a shop specializing in kanro natto (sweetened fermented soybeans), is a 15-minute walk from the school. Kanro natto is a Japanese sweet made by simmering beans in molasses and coating them with sugar. Mitsuhashi’s kanro natto is handcrafted with great care and has an elegant flavor. When I mention kanro natto to international students, they all react to the word “natto” and make disgusted faces. Many foreigners dislike natto, but when I explain it properly, they all say they would love to try it. Because many Southeast Asian countries have bean-based sweets, they find kanro natto intriguing. Kanro natto is not sold during midsummer, so if you’re curious, visit before summer arrives. A 15-minute walk from the school brings you to Mitsuhashi, a specialty shop for kanro natto. Kanro natto is a wagashi made by simmering beans in molasses and sprinkling them with sugar. Mitsuhashi’s kanro natto is made very carefully and has a refined taste. When I tell international students about kanro natto, they respond to the word “natto” with unhappy faces. Many foreigners dislike natto, but if I explain it properly, everyone says they’d like to try it. Since Southeast Asia offers many bean sweets, kanro natto piques their interest. Kanro natto is not sold in the peak of summer, so if you are curious, try to go before summer.

I saw cherry blossoms at Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden о ́∀'о 🌸 It was a good cherry blossom viewing day. I was healed by the blooming of many flowers other than cherry blossoms.

Cherry blossoms in 🌸 Asakawa in Hachioji Due to heavy rain the night before, a carpet of cherry blossoms was formed after a lot of dispersion! !️

It was beautiful to visit the Sky Tree. I recommend seeing the Tree from different locations. Also, an excellent opportunity to walk around Tokyo and see different sides of the city!

The Meguro River area. I came by every day for four days to observe and wait for the blossom. The blossom happened down the river, which I didn't venture into. My loss, your gain make sure you walk down the river! :

The day before March 24, cherry blossoms at Tokyo Tower.

One of my favourite moments. Cherry Blossom, surrounded by people enjoying themselves. This is what a festival feels like.

It's a smartphone shoot, but I took 🌸 a picture of the cherry blossoms in the neighborhood before it scattered. It bloomed early this year.

At Tokyo Tatemonoen. There are various Japanese and Western buildings such as "Maekawa Kunio House" designed by famous architect Kunio Maekawa! Why don't you go back to the nostalgic times?

[English／日本語] Hachioji had a castle called Katakura Castle 500 years ago. Today, there is no castle, but there is a park that tells the history of the castle.
