Okayama Korakuen Garden is one of the three most famous gardens in Japan in Okayama City. Every year from August 1st to 31st, the summer night illumination event "Fantasy Garden" is held. The lighting direction also changes little by little every year. During the period, projections and concerts are also held. It is also good to take a walk in the illuminated Japanese garden at night when it gets a little cooler.

Kenninji Temple　 Relax in the garden. You can spend a relaxing time.

At Yosuien Garden, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture In the garden full of trees, there is a "tidal pond", and in the center of the pond floats the guardian god island where the shrine is located. At the time of the shooting, I was the only visitor to the park, and I was able to immerse myself in my own small other world while listening to the voices of nature.

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!

in Muko, Kyoto It is the diameter of bamboo. The bamboo bushes are very beautiful. A spot where locals take a walk In recent years, including foreigners Like seeing tourists Now.

Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture Gifu Park at Japan-China Friendship Garden I felt the emotion of Japan as the scattered petals moved gently. #Spring #Photo Contest

Jonangong is a spring mountain. The shade in the foreground falls on the moss and camellia. If you go to the back, you will see a gorgeous carpet of weeping plums and petals. The sight of contrasting beauties next to each other is fantastic.

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 Yuki's post "Cherry blossoms in Shinjuku Gyoen bathed in the light of the setting sun". It is a beautiful photo of the cherry blossoms that have increased in color with the setting sun. Shinjuku Gyoen, which straddles Shinjuku and Shibuya wards in Tokyo, is a landscape garden that was born in 1906 (Meiji 39). The garden covers an area of about 58 hectares, and you can enjoy nature throughout the four seasons. In spring, it is a popular cherry blossom viewing spot where about 900 cherry trees of about 70 species are in full bloom. Since the flowering time differs depending on the type of cherry blossom, you can enjoy the cherry blossoms for a long time, from the early-blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms in January to the Yae cherry blossoms in April. Many people visit it as an oasis in Shinjuku's building district. In addition, there are restaurants, cafes, greenhouses, children's squares, etc. in the park, and there are many attractions. From late March, the cherry blossom light-up event "NAKED Sakura no Shinjuku Gyoen 2023" will be held. In collaboration with NAKED Co., Ltd., you can enjoy various light-ups, projection mapping, and cherry blossoms. 【Event Period】Friday, March 31, 2023 ~ Sunday, April 23, 2023 During the busy season when last year's cherry blossoms are in full bloom, advance reservations are made for admission, and although there is no announcement at this time, there is a possibility that the same will be made in 2023. It is a good idea to check in advance on the Internet. ◆Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden◆ 【Address】〒160-0014 11 Naito-cho, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 【Access】 About a 5-minute walk from Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line "Shinjuku Gyoenmae Station" Exit 1 【Parking lot】Available (Please check the official website for details.) ）

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.

I took my one-and-a-half-year-old daughter to Ritsurin Park. Nailed to the colorful Nishikigoi that you see for the first time. Will you be surprised and cry? I thought, but I was looking at it happily with a smile. I was able to feed them without being afraid. From this day on, my daughter started looking for carp when she saw the waterside. It's hard to see such a colorful Nishikigoi, so I'm going to bring it here again. It is a wonderful garden where you can feel the change of seasons.

Autumn leaves illuminated in Showa Kinen Park. The ginkgo trees are famous Japan but the autumn leaves reflected in the pond in the garden are also beautiful.

Okayama Korakuen Garden in Okayama City is one of the three famous gardens Japan. It is famous as a beautiful Japan garden with grass. The castle tower of Okayama Castle is often photographed in the background, but the illuminated fantasy garden is also very beautiful.

This is a photo of when I went to Daikakuji Temple in Arashiyama Kyoto. It looks like it's going to rain anytime soon.

Finally managed to visit Shinjuku Gyoen over the weekend Been meaning to go here for a while now and finally had the chance The park itself was quite large, it was a bit surprising how much space it actually takes up in the city. There were a lot of cool stone lanterns and other structures to see throughout the park as well. The Taiwan building was pretty interesting to learn about. Apparently it was donated to Japan in 1924 by Japanese people living in Taiwan. The sign outside mentioned that it was a nice place to feel the breeze and it wasn't a lie either. It felt really nice standing on the balcony overlooking the pond. The breeze came through perfectly. Unfortunately we didn't bring a blanket with us to the park but there were a lot of other people laying down on the grass and it looked like a nice place to have a picnic. We stopped at one of the rest areas and grabbed some drinks as well. I got a lemonade drink that was really refreshing and she got a café latte. We took a quick tour through the greenhouse at the end as well and it had a lot of cool plants inside. I found this flower with grey leaves that I thought was really cool looking. I definitely want to return during autumn to see how the park looks after the leaves change!

It is the garden of Ōshoji Temple in Fukusaki Town, Hyogo Prefecture. Kansai Hanaji Temple 25th Sacred Ground No. 8 and Banshu Yakushi Sacred Site No. 13 are famous as Sara temples. In front of the mountain gate, there is a reclining Buddha with a head and feet made of stone and a body of Satsuki with a height of about 8 meters. As befits a flower temple, you can see not only Sara but also seasonal flowers. From spring to summer, the green of the azaleas seen from inside is beautiful, and in autumn, you can enjoy a dreamy world of reflection with the addition of bright red camellia.

Visited Shibamata for the first time over the weekend. I'd been meaning to go for a while because it seemed like an interesting place to visit in Tokyo, but I just hadn't had the chance until now. It was a really nice place and I was surprised at how few people were there. There was a ton of shops lined up along the main street and the wooden buildings gave it a really nice atmosphere. I haven't seen Otoko wa Tsurai yo, but there were statues and posters of Tora-san everywhere, even inside shops and stuff. I guess I'll have to watch it some time when I have the chance. We ended up eating lunch at one of the restaurants along the main road and they had some Tora Miso Ramen so we decided to try it. It was pretty good and had a decent amount of vegetables in it as well, so moderately healthy for ramen I suppose. We also got some dessert at a cafe afterwards and she got some dango while I ordered an ice cream float. We also went to the nearby temple Shibamata Taishakuten (柴又帝釈天), or Daikyoji Temple and walked around the main temple grounds and also bought tickets to see the garden and the architecture inside the temple. The garden was really pretty and the walkway around it was quite nice to walk on. I really enjoyed viewing the inside of the temple as there was a ton of hand-carved panels depicting different scenes. There were descriptions below each of the panels that described them as well, and they were interesting to read. It seemed like they were all carved by different people but they were all highly skilled. When we were leaving we found a nice little shows style candy shop and we bought some snacks and played a round of pinball on one of the pinball machines inside the shop. Haven’t played pinball since I was a kid, was pretty nostalgic. If you're in Tokyo I definitely recommend giving this place a visit on the weekend.

On the final day of our trip we were a bit tired but still wanted to see a few things and just casually enjoy our time. We ended up going to Marugame Castle as our first destination. It was really cool as it's one of the 12 castles in Japan that still has an original castle keep. The castle itself isn't very large, but the area surrounding it is. From the bottom of the castle the keep is quite small so it's hard to get a good photo of it, but we got a photo of it with one of the turrets along the moat wall which was cool. We reserved a rickshaw ride the previous night as well so when we got to the castle we did a little exploring and then we went on a guided tour around the lower area of the castle. The rickshaw guide was a really nice guy and quite funny as well. Apparently he was a comedian but he enjoyed doing this job as well. He told us a bunch of different things about the castle and it's construction while also telling some jokes occasionally. After the rickshaw tour we climbed our way up to the top of the castle and there were saw really amazing views waiting for us at the top. You could see the entire city almost. We also entered the castle keep, but it was relatively small. It was still nice to see the architecture on the inside but the stairs were a bit scary. They were incredibly steep and I was holding the handrails the entire time going up or down them. After checking out the castle we were pretty hungry and so we decided to get some lunch. Being Kagawa is the udon prefecture we went to an udon specialty restaurant. I haven't been to many udon restaurants so it was kind of a new experience for me. They had it set up kind of like a cafeteria and you go through and choose what you want and other toppings to go with your udon. I didn't see the trays for the extra toppings so I just ended up putting the karaage on top of my udon lol. I got niku udon and it tasted really good. The karaage was a nice touch as well. Not the usual tempura most people get but it went surprisingly well with the soup. After eating we headed towards Nakazu Banshoen, a garden with art exhibits as well. Before getting there we decided to stop by a Lupin-themed cafe though. It was a really tiny shop but we were able to cool off for a bit and relax which was nice since we were walking quite a bit. The garden was quite large and had a lot of different points of interest within it. The stepping stones were fun to cross and the row of torii gates was pretty cool as well. You can definitely take some nice photos with them. And that concludes our trip to Takamatsu! Overall it was a really fun trip and I definitely recommend it to anyone who hasn't been to Shikoku or Kagawa before. We didn't even get to do everything we were looking at but we still had a blast!
