A strange festival held in the early morning of winter at Kawarayu Onsen in Naganohara Town, Gunma Prefecture "Yukake Festival" One day, about 400 years after Minamoto Yoritomo discovered the hot spring, the hot spring suddenly disappeared. The villagers were exhausted, but when one of them smelled the hot springs, he smelled boiled chicken eggs. So we sacrificed the chicken and prayed, and the hot water came out again, so we all decided to celebrate. At first, we were happy to say, "Hot water, hot water," but then we all started pouring hot water on each other by saying, "It's a celebration, it's a celebration." I'm pouring hot water on a red and white kusudama with live chickens!

This is strawberry shaved ice from a shaved ice shop called "Japan Ichi" in Gunma. The ice is made from Chichibu's natural ice, and you can change it to Nikko's natural ice. In addition, the strawberry syrup is made by hand and has a good balance of acidity and sweetness, and as the name of the store says, I think it is the best in the hot summer. I think that shaved ice is indispensable in the summer of Japan, and now there are various shaved ice in Japan all over the country, and I think it has become more familiar. I took a picture of such shaved ice not by the whole thing, but by focusing on the parts that looked delicious.

What a beautiful photo. I've always found it interesting but never understood the train enthusiast culture, but when you see photos like this you really start to understand why. I really love seeing the old steam locomotives personally, as opposed to the newer models and shinkansen. I know about the Sagano romantic train and always thought it'd be a really cool experience to go on a sightseeing trip in Kyoto using it. I never knew Gunma had such amazing scenery as well. My friend from there always tells me how unbearably hot it gets in the summer so I just always assumed there couldn't be too much worthwhile, but I guess Japan's four seasons really are as prominent as they say. Amazing...
