This is the first time I visited Ouchijuku. The night before, the surrounding mountains had its first snow, and the planting in the post town became the first ice. The sky was cloudy, so I arrived a little depressed, but it was early in the morning and there were few people, but the few trees with autumn leaves that remained warmed my feelings. The people of the post town were also very kind, and my desire to support Fukushima became stronger. What I can do now is to convey the charm of Tohoku as much as possible.

I visited Fukushima Prefecture for the first time. Partly due to the effects of the earthquake, many months passed without my mind turning to this area. The first place I visited was the "Tower". It felt like the peak of autumn leaves had passed, but I was reminded that the brilliance of nature does not matter where it is. Once again, don't be defeated by the earthquake! Fukushima Prefecture! It was a time when I felt strongly about it. I will try not to be prejudiced and be confident in the land where I grew up!

The 17th COOL JAPAN VIDEOS Photo Contest is now underway! The theme of this photo contest is "Hidden Gem Tourist Attractions in Japan" We're looking forward to seeing everyone's wonderful submissions! This time, we will introduce a post by "YUSKE.TK"! It captures the unique contrast between railways and nature. The JR Tadami Line runs along the Tadami River. Located in Uonuma City, Niigata Prefecture, the area around the "Daiichi Tsuruma River Bridge" is a secluded area where you can enjoy the scenery of the four seasons. From the train window, you can enjoy the countryside and valleys. ◆Daiichi Tsuruma River Bridge◆ 【Address】Uonuma City, Niigata Prefecture

05:36 Small departure bound for Aizuwakamatsu, the first train up the Tadami Line.
The first bridge of the Hakama River is filled with river fog, creating a fantastic atmosphere...
I finally took a picture of the river fog here that I wanted to photograph! ^^♪♡

Went to Fukushima over the Golden Week holiday. On our first day we took a bus to Ouchi-Juku and had a great time looking at all the buildings and different shops. The negi soba soba with a large leek is famous there so my girlfriend ended up ordering that. She said it was a bit difficult to eat, but fun and tasted great. We also ended up trying a variety of different snacks in the area. The Age-Manju deep fried manju was really tasty and we actually ended up getting again later. I was able to take a photo from the famous photo spot at Ouchi-Juku as well photo #4. I only have an iPhone camera, so the quality isn't the best, but I'm happy with how it turned out. On the way back from Ouchi-Juku we returned via Yunokami Onsen Station and so we got to use the footbath that was attached to the station. It was a really great way to rest up after walking for so long. The station itself was also really photogenic, so I snapped a couple photos from the platform and between the railroad tracks. The hotel we were staying at for the night was in Aizu-Wakamatsu and on the way we found a nice little shop with a large akabeko cow outside and the staff was kind enough to take a photo of us with it. For dinner, we went to a place called Sassa 左雨 and had a really great time. We ended up talking to the owners for a bit and they were super nice. It was also the best tonkatsu I've eaten in my entire life. It was cooked tp perfection, and the dressing that came with the salad and cabbage matched perfectly with it. We probably ended up eating way too many fried foods but it was all really tasty. The next day we visited Tsuruga Castle. The castle was quite cool, but it was a bit more crowded than Ouchi-Juku. Considering it was Golden Week, it wasn't much of a surprise. Either way we had a great time. We started off going for a boat ride around the moat I got my daily exercise in, as I was rowing the whole time lol. After that we went up into the castle and were able to see a view of the city from the top which was pretty cool. There were also live performances going on in the field in front of the castle which were fun to watch. At that point it was about lunch time so we went over to the row of food stalls photo #16 and grabbed a bite to eat. There were shops selling all sorts of goods as well, so we spent some time window shopping. After Tsuruga Castle, we went to Oyakuen Garden 御薬園. We ended up sharing a green tea by the pond and relaxing for a bit which was nice. There were a lot of koi inside the pond and a variety of birds flying around as well, so the atmosphere was very relaxing. Photo #20 is supposedly the best view in the garden it was written on a sign so I snapped a photo of it. The photo doesn't do it justice, but it was a really incredible view. All in all, we had a really amazing time in Fukushima, but we definitely would like to visit again, as there's a lot we didn't get to do still. I really wanted to try an akabeko workshop but we didn't get the chance, which was a bit disappointing, but we still had a lot of fun, so I can't complain. I definitely recommend visiting Aizu-Wakamatsu if you have the chance!

It is an old stratovolcano facing the Mt. Azuma-kofuji of Okenuma in Bandai Asahi National Park in Fukushima Prefecture and the southern part of Jododaira. At the end of April, when I went to see the fresh green and blue lake, there was still a lot of snow. It was difficult to get to the shooting location, but I was impressed by the natural beauty reflected in the dark blue surface of the dark blue lake with the remaining snow on the lakeside and the fresh greenery of the trees that have begun to sprout! It is a recommended hidden gem.
