Tanuki's cherry blossom viewing ? I went to Shigaraki, Shiga Prefecture. Tanuki at Shigaraki Station on the railway! It looks like you are leisurely looking at the cherry blossoms under the magnificent cherry blossoms. Wow! And the face when I looked up is cute ♡. There is also a museum and many Shigaraki ware shops nearby. This local pottery, "Shigaraki ware", which has been blessed with high-quality soil since ancient times and has excelled at making large vessels, was ✨ impressive just by looking at it. Some are from the Kamakura period, Even the ones that make you feel the newness of modern craftsmen are a good stimulus. I liked ♡ the elegant black shiny vessel with gold mixed with glaze. Next time I go, I would like to book a potter's wheel experience and try something new.

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! Today's inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video" pickup post Here is a post by "HIKARINOATORIE". Metasequoia trees in Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture The symmetrical rows of autumn leaves are a superb view and an impressive photo. A row of metasequoia trees stretches for about 2.4 km from the agricultural park Makino Pick Land to the Makino Plateau. About 500 cypress metasequoias are planted on both sides of the road, and it is a popular tourist spot that has been selected as one of the 100 New Japan Street Tree Views. Metasequoia trees have many attractions throughout the four seasons, such as budding and fresh green in spring, deep green in summer, autumn leaves, and bare trees and snow flowers in winter, but the autumn leaves, which are said to be the best season, have been selected as one of the "100 best spots for Japan autumn leaves". The best time to see them is from early November to late November. It is beautiful to watch from inside the car, but it is also recommended to walk and enjoy it slowly. There is also a "Namiki Cafe" nearby where you can overlook the Metasequoia Avenue, so why not use it for a break? Access is a 20-minute taxi ride from Makino Station on the JR Kosei Line, or just get off at Makino Pick Land Bus Stop on the Makinohara Kogen City Line. If you are arriving by car, you can park the free parking lot at "Makino Pick Land".

This is a large kaleidoscope photo I found when I went to Nagahama with a friend in July this year! It was dome-shaped, and if you manually turned the lever, you could see a beautiful kaleidoscope inside. I took this picture because the outside was beautiful spinning like a windmill.

Winter in Japan 2021.12.29 In Shiga

Shot at Maibara Station on the Tokaido Shinkansen. A strong cold wave hit the Japan archipelago, causing heavy snowfall in northern Shiga Prefecture. While the conventional line began to lag behind, the Shinkansen ran through with a delay of about 20 minutes.

Mishima Pond in Maibara City, Shiga Prefecture, and Mt. Ibuki, one of the 100 famous mountains Japan seen from there. As we waited from midnight when the snow was falling heavily, the snow stopped, and dawn illuminated Mt. Ibuki.

This is the first time I have seen splashed ice at Lake Biwa Konan in more than half a century since I was born and raised in this area. North Lake belongs to the subarctic zone, so it is said to be a winter tradition, but it is a phenomenon that rarely occurs in South Lake, which belongs to the temperate zone, and when I happened to pass by by car, I thought that plastic bags washed ashore endlessly on the shore, but when I got closer, it was ice, so I took a picture because it was rare. The cameramen, who I had seen on the TV news the day before, set up countless tents on the shore of the cold lake from all over the country to aim for good early morning conditions. The mountain in the center of the opposite bank is Mt. Hiei, where the World Heritage Enryakuji Temple is located.

When I looked up on the way up the stairs that were as difficult as an idiot at the Tarobo Palace in Shiga Prefecture, it was bright red. When you finish climbing, you can buy an amulet with the single character "Katsu" at the main shrine through the gap in the couple's rock.
