First morning activity in a long time. The scenery of the Sakaori Terraced Rice Fields of Ena City, Gifu Prefecture ^^ Thanks to the water in the rice fields The sky was beautiful with reflections. The Sakaori Terraced Rice Fields of Ena City, Gifu Prefecture, is a beautiful landscape that has been selected as one of the 100 best terraced rice fields in Japan. It has a history of 400 years, and 360 terraced rice fields made of masonry spread out in a fan shape on the slope of the mountain. The terraced rice fields, which show colorful expressions in each of the four seasons, fascinate visitors. Delicious rice and vegetables are grown in the terraced rice fields, which can be tasted at local restaurants and guesthouses. There are also fun experience programs such as terraced rice field guided walks and charcoal grilling experiences. Sakaori Terraced Rice Fields is a wonderful place where you can feel the original scenery of Japan.

This is a view that can be seen from Wakakusa Inari Shrine in Tome City, Miyagi Prefecture. It's a nondescript rural landscape, but the blue sky, green countryside, and clean air make this my favorite place.

In Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture, you can see Mt. Fuji reflected beautifully even after rice planting, but the picture is slightly distorted by the surface tension on the rice. After all, the aim is a short period before rice planting.

Before rice planting, clear skies, and no wind, you can see the splendid water mirror of Mt. Fuji in Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture. A luxurious sight for only a short time until the wind begins to blow.

The Tadami Line runs from Koide, Uonuma City, Niigata Prefecture to Aizuwakamatsu, Fukushima Prefecture. Spring has finally arrived after a long winter. Reflected in the water mirror stretched over the rice fields, which can only be seen at this time of year, the local train heads to Aizu.

The five-storied pagoda, the symbol of Kibiji in Soja City, Okayama Prefecture, is also surrounded by very beautiful fresh greenery.

The Toro Ruins are a settlement and paddy field ruins from the Yayoi period, and are designated as a national designated historic site! !️ Why don't you go to this place where you can suddenly see ancient buildings in a residential area? 😊

It is the season of rice planting. The state of the substitution scraping before planting seedlings. When the rice fields are filled with water and the weather is good and there is little wind, the rice fields become like a lake, reflecting the scenery like a mirror. It is a superb view that can only be seen for a few days.

Wonderful world

Photographed on 2023.04.09 at Oyama Senmaida, Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture. I wanted to experience something spring-like scenery, so I went to Chiba Prefecture to see the water mirror of the terraced rice fields. You can only see the clean water mirror for a limited period of time until the farmer plants the rice. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a spring tradition. When the sky deep in the mountains begins to light and the water surface of the terraced rice fields begins to receive the light of the sky, morning finally begins for the animals. The chirping of birds and the chirping of frogs can be heard more actively. "There are still dark shadows in the visible world, but morning is certainly approaching." I wanted to convey such an atmosphere through photographs, so I captured the gentle rotation of light in the darkness.

I took 🥹 an aerial view of Kasamatsu Kawazu Sakura Road High-angle composition with the sunrise in the background. Maybe a world first? I'm 😁 happy if that's the case.
