Tokinokane or the bell tower which is the landmark of Kawagoe can be seen nicely. This couple was enjoying the traditional and historical city in a traditional fashion. The old style house and bell tower in the background makes the atmosphere more beautiful.

Fireworks ? in the sky of Odaiba "STAR ISLAND 2024" will be the first Held in in Tokyo Events Held in around the world have landed in Tokyo for the first time! The history of Odaiba is that the Edo shogunate, which felt threatened by Perry's arrival in Japan in 1853 (Kaei 6), built six daiba (artillery batteries). In the process leading up to the present, the 3rd Daiba and the 6th Daiba have been preserved, and the 3rd Daiba is preserved as a park, and the 6th Daiba is preserved on the Ocean as a historical site rich in nature and valuable academically!

Matsumoto Castle, one of Japan's oldest castles, is famous for its unique black exterior. Located in Matsumoto City for over 400 years, it houses a remarkable collection of weapons and armor from the Warring States Period. Despite never witnessing battle, it's a must-visit in Nagano Prefecture, especially during twilight hours for a peaceful experience. The sight of swans on the moat against the castle and the blueish-purple horizon is unforgettable.

Oshi Castle, located in Gyoda City, Saitama Prefecture, has a rich history dating back to the late 15th century. Despite facing numerous attacks, this formidable castle never succumbed. While the original structure no longer stands, visitors can still witness the earthen foundation of the main castle, the towering stone walls, the Korai Gate, and other fascinating ruins. The reconstructed "Three-storied Tower" from the Edo Period now houses captivating exhibits, offering visitors a glimpse into the past. Ascend to the observation room on the highest floor for a breathtaking view of Gyoda City. My visit at twilight revealed an eerily silent and empty atmosphere, evoking the enchanting aura of this ancient site.

It is a tea house in Suwa in the Tomi Garden of the Imperial Palace. Anyone can enter the Tomi Garden for free, and some of them are the ruins of the castle tower of Edo Castle. Suwa no Chaya is a Japanese house located in Ninomaru Garden. Why don't you take a stroll?

It is the Imperial Palace Fushimi Tower. Cross the double-bridge Megane Bridge, turn around and cross the iron bridge, and you will see it on your left. It is one of the buildings that made up Edo Castle. Normally you can't see it, This photo was taken when I entered the castle as a general visitor.

It is the Marunouchi station building of Tokyo Station that everyone knows. It is a symbol of the history of Japan's railways. After completion in 1914, it was partially destroyed during the Pacific War, and restoration work was completed in 2012. I think the spirit of trying to restore historical buildings to their original state is cool Japan.

Cherry blossoms on the approach to Makari Shrine. And farmers during the busy season? Cycling with my daughter every year! Pray to God for safety!

The Fujimi Tower of the Imperial Palace and the buildings of Marunouchi show the contrast between the historic Edo period architecture and modern architecture.

The Edo Castle, once the largest fortress, was transformed into the imperial residence Kōkyo after the shogunate fell and the emperor moved to Tokyo. The castle was significantly damaged by fires in 1873 and again during WWII air raids. The moats and stone walls visible around the palace grounds are remnants of the original castle. This location is a popular spot for tourists from all over the world. I captured this photo of the palace during a snowy twilight, when there were very few tourists around. They were struck by the rare beauty of the palace during the snowfall and found it especially captivating to see a lone woman enjoying the serene scene.

National Yaho, a railroad crossing that will be abolished. It seems to be a shooting Spot, and enthusiasts often came to take pictures of the Nambu Line! I'm a little lonely

Sometime scenery View of Odaiba Bayside from a houseboat. It's around this time today that the waterside is comfortable. From all over the country, we heard about the opening of the river, the opening of the sea, and the topic of fireworks. This is Odaiba Bayside. If you look at the sea from the observation deck, attracted by the expansive scenery and the lights that shine in the dark night, you will see that there are many enviable targets such as houseboats, sightseeing boats, wind currents, and fairy tales. Even if it shakes, it shakes. I challenged with poor equipment without image stabilization and dared to sink ... If you enjoy looking at the atmosphere photos ...

Still active!

During Golden Week, colorful Carp streamers appear in front of the main entrance on the first floor of Tokyo Tower. Carp streamers began when they decorated streamers in the shape of carp in hopes of the healthy growth of boys during the Dragon Boat Festival, but 333 Carp streamers were displayed to match the height of Tokyo Tower at 333m. It is spectacular to see them fluttering in the wind and swimming in the sky in unison.

Wrapped in an arch of roses 　　　　　　　　　　Tokyo Tower? This is one photo taken from Shiba Park, Minato-ku, Tokyo. Since its opening in 1958, it has been watching over the city as a symbol of Tokyo for about 60 years. It is said that the construction technology of that time is so advanced that it is said that it cannot be reproduced now. It has been earthquake-resistant for more than 60 years in Japan, an earthquake-prone country, and I felt that it was the crystallization of craftsmanship. Why don't you enjoy matching with modern roses? ?

Alive! Tokyo Ikebukuro, Sunshine Building!

GW Tokyo Tower.　 GW: Tokyo Tower, which has been around for a long time, is full of children and foreign tourists, including the surrounding parks. On this day, the wind was calm and many tourists climbed the stairs of the tower on foot, making it lively. … But it's calm, so the energy of the Carp streamers is not good ... However, even if the wind doesn't blow much, if you tilt the camera to the side, the carp will climb the tower energetically, not just the carp waterfall climbing.

Today in Akasaka, I met up with a friend. This kind of time is precious. This is Bilbokeh's lunch plate. It is a quiche, a pork tart, and a terrine. Bilboquet means kendama in French.

Inari-san (Inari Inari Daimyojin) in a corner of Hanazono Shrine in Shinjuku, Tokyo. It just so happened that when I was waiting for people at the meeting, a student came to visit. I was seriously praying, but I wonder what I was praying for in the rain Gari

Early April Ueno Park Tsutendo and Ninja Pond There are many shrub cherry blossoms on the promenade surrounding the pond, so it is a good place to take a two-shot with the cherry blossoms. The sun was setting on the way from the park to the temple, and by the time we passed through the temple and came out on the promenade, lights began to light up here and there. While enjoying the illuminated cherry blossoms at night, I turned around for about half a circle, and the scenery unique to the magic hour, which made me feel like an oasis in the city, was reflected in the water mirror. It seemed that an idol was performing live at a nearby stadium, and the cheerful and cute voices of cheerleading echoed through the pond, making people who came and went smile. At the beginning of the evening, it seems that the bustle has only just begun.

This is the garden scene of Sensoji Temple just before the Someiyoshino cherry blossoms are in full bloom. The tree you can see in the back left is Someiyoshino. During the day, it is crowded with many tourists, but at night it is quiet with no people. There are a lot of street lights and lights, and if you don't show them, the cherry blossom trees will be small. It was a place where if you put the whole cherry blossom tree in, there would be a lot of ghosts. I took a lot of pictures while changing the angle of view little by little.

This year, the Someiyoshino cherry blossoms bloomed later than last year, so I went to take pictures of the cherry blossoms on a sunny morning in March. At that time, it seemed to coincide with the breakfast time of the whitebirds, and I took a picture of several whitebirds coming to eat the nectar of the cherry blossoms. Most of the whitebirds moved frequently from flower to flower, but the child in the photo was a bird model who stayed still until he finished taking a picture. Thank you for letting me take this picture.
