Goshikinuma ponds, often dubbed the “mysterious lake,” promise to be an great experience with their captivating colors—emerald green, cobalt blue, turquoise blue, emerald blue, and pastel blue. Goshikinuma meaning "five color ponds," is somewhat misleading. The area features far more than five ponds, each likely to reveal an even broader array of spectacular colors. During fall time the ponds look more heavenly and peaceful.

Autumn leaves and the purple gold mountain atlas comet In Hokkaido, autumn slowly turns color Autumn leaves were photographed in a composition that looked like a comet falling It seems that Comet Purple Gold Mountain Atlas will return in 80,000 years In other words, this is the last time you will be able to see this scenery and the comet at the same time When I thought about it, I felt somewhat lonely, as if I was saying goodbye to this life

Comet Atlas, a hot topic right now I was able to take a picture with Kondeji You can tell it's a comet even with a smartphone. You can take pictures of the level. (The mountain range seen below is a recent The Hidaka Mountains, which became a national park) Even if it's sunny, it's barely visible to the naked eye I feel like I can see it somehow. I can't see the "tail" in my eyesight Because it looks like a small, dim star Many people don't seem to notice that it's a comet. It will be useful to have bright binoculars This celestial show will last until around the end of this week. It is said that it is an opportunity, It gets darker and smaller.

Autumn at Binchu Matsuyama Castle 2019.11.21 The castle tower, which stands near the summit of Mt. Usushi at a Elevation of 430 meters, is National Important Cultural Property and Located in the tallest mountain castle with an existing castle tower. Origin from the Kamakura period, when Jitou Akiba Shigenobu of Arihan Township (present-day Arihan Towns, Takahashi City) built a castle on Mt. Omatsu, and in 1683 (Tenwa San) it was repaired by Mizutani Katsumune over a period of three years, and it became the current castle tower. Since this area connects San'in and Sanyo and intersects the main east-west highways, fierce battles were constantly fought during the Warring States period, and the castle owner was constantly changing hands at a dizzying pace. Around Tojozaka, a huge sheer rock wall with a height of more than 10 meters rises, and you can see the appearance of the "impregnable castle" where the people of the old days rolled their tongues. The contrast between the white plastered walls and the black waist board, the beautiful castle tower shines against the blue of the sky. Autumn leaves on the trees near Otemon in autumn, and the view of the rock walls covered in fiery vermilion is spectacular. There are only 12 castle towers in Japan that exist before the Edo period. Among them, only this Binchu Matsuyama Castle still has a castle tower as a mountain castle. The Observation deck overlooking Binchu Matsuyama Castle floating in the sea of clouds (Unkai Observation deck) is a point where you can see the castle tower of Binchu Matsuyama Castle from the side, which stands on the top of Mt. Usushi at an Elevation of 430 Meters. Especially in the early morning from autumn to Spring, the sea of clouds Unfolds all over, and if you are lucky, you can see "Binchu Matsuyama Castle floating in the sea of clouds" as shown in the photo. However, a sea of clouds does not occur unless weather conditions such as a large temperature difference between day and night and no wind are met. In addition, if the sea of clouds is too thin or too thick, you will not be able to see "Binchu Matsuyama Castle floating in the sea of clouds". Period when the sea of clouds occurs is in the early morning of late September ~ early April. There are snow from December to the end of February. The hours are from dawn to about 8 am, and you can expect thick morning fog, especially in the early morning of late October ~ early December. One of the criteria for determining the conditions for the appearance of a sea of clouds is "good weather and a large difference in temperature between morning and daytime".

Gion Shrine Autumn Festival “Okunchi” Today, Wednesday, October 9, the Gion Shrine in Kuraoka District held its autumn festival “Okunchi.”🤗 The light rain that fell until yesterday felt like a distant memory under a clear, delightful autumn sky.☀️ Gion-san’s power is truly amazing.👏✨ Even though the festival fell on a weekday this year, visitors from outside the prefecture and local children gathered from the start of the ceremony.😊 We were allowed into the main hall and were able to see the “Urayasu no Mai” dance.🥹 It was a beautiful dance that radiated tradition.✨ The Gion kagura also came with detailed explanations about how it differs from other kagura, which made it even more enjoyable.🤩 The Usu-daiko drum dance invited everyone, including the general public, to join in lively dancing, and the playful exchanges of the Yamaboshi question-and-answer skit added a comedic touch that made people chuckle.🤣 Traditional events can sometimes seem formal and stern, but this festival was anything but that—it was a truly entertaining celebration.💫 After the Usu-daiko dance there was a mochi-throwing event, and the festival concluded with a dedication of the Gion kagura, keeping the atmosphere lively from start to finish.🤗🎉

Nara Park 2022.11.03 The Morning Sun was shining brightly. Kasuga-Taisha Shrine, a shrine located in Nara Park, is the headquarters of about 3,000 Kasuga-Taisha Shrines throughout Japan and is also recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. One of the main God of worship enshrined at Kasuga-taisha Shrine, Takemikazuchi no Mikoto, was originally the god of Kashima Jingu Shrine in Ibaraki Prefecture. In the second year of Jingo Kageun Jingoken (768), Taketsuchi came from Kashima Jingu to Mount Spring on a white deer. At this time, it is said that the white deer on which Taketsuchi was riding gave birth to a child in Nara, which is the Roux of Nara's deer.

Thursday, October 3 — G Class: Tea Pan-Frying Experience at Miyazaki Sabou🍵 Today, third graders from four elementary schools across Gokase Town gathered at Miyazaki Sabou for a G class✍️💡…so I was able to observe their visit👀✨ We had considered skipping the tea-picking experience because of light rain, but the kids’ energy cleared the sky enough for a short session, so we did a little picking👏👏👏 Chanting “one bud, two leaves!” everyone happily hand-picked tea leaves🌿 After that, the group split into three teams to do 1) a factory tour, 2) a pan-frying experience, and 3) a tasting session✍️✨ 1) The factory was full of first-time sights! Different tea aromas drifted through the air, and just watching the tour felt soothing🤤💕 When told that a single tea leaf can become green tea, oolong tea, or black tea, the kids gasped “Whaaaat!?” with perfect reactions😳💮💮💮 lol 2) The pan-frying experience stemmed from what they heard on the tour: machines roast leaves at 200–300°C, so the kids nervously asked, “Is it hot!?”🤣 But trying it turned out to be fun🤩 They watched, fascinated, as the leaves dried and released a pleasant aroma, commenting “I like this smell!” and “But it’s tiring~💦” while learning the pan-fried tea production process😊 3) They learned about types of tea utensils and how to use them, the ideal water temperature for brewing, and other tips for making tasty tea, then each brewed and tasted pan-fried tea themselves🍵✨ One child said it smelled like corn soup, which surprised me, but apparently pan-fried tea is often said to have a corn-like flavor😮💡 The children’s sensitivities never cease to amaze me👏 They compared four teas by taste and tried to identify which was pan-fried tea, oolong, hojicha, or black tea. Many struggled, confused by the familiar colors and aromas🤣 Did you know? Taiwanese and Gokase oolong teas are closer in color to green tea rather than brown😏✏️ At the end, during the Q&A, the children asked sharp questions to the producers and summarized what they had learned✍️💫 The kids experienced the full charm of Gokase’s pan-fried tea and felt the producers’ passion😌 I hope they take pride in this local specialty and help weave the future of Gokase Town✨

UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage "Ara Odori" on Sunday, September 29 Ara Odori took place on Sunday, September 29 🐵💫 The sunny weather was almost hot and great for photos, but I imagine it was truly tough for everyone who spent the whole day dancing in costume. Well done to all of you 👏 I was amazed to see so many people each memorizing their roles, dances, and songs to perform a single dance together 😳✨ Elementary school students joined in and danced Ara Odori partway through, and it moved me to see this tradition being passed down to people of all ages 🥹 I heard that Ara Odori used to ban women long ago, but even as the form has changed with the times, I felt a strong community spirit to protect the tradition together 💪✨ Today, students from Gokase Junior High School, who hope to share more of Gokase Town’s charm and traditions and make the town more vibrant, spent the whole day filming the Ara Odori on video for us 📸💡 We should be able to share that video soon, so look forward to it 🤗💕
