I like spring when I meet a rape flower field ? by chance from the park I go to for the first time. Involuntarily approach and high pose!

Wow this is amazing. I've heard of Kumano Kodo before, but this is just way too beautiful. One thing I find interesting about this is the two sides of the path; It looks as though it's 2 very different areas. The soil on the left and right looks completely different, and the tree on the left are covered in foliage, whereas the trees on the right are all stripped of their leaves. I wonder if this is some cool natural phenomenon. I'd love to go hiking here and find a nice spot by a lake and just have a picnic/barbecue for the day. I wonder if there are any lakes nearby here. I'll have to do a bit of research it seems! I love how just looking at this I can feel the history and imagine how people would have traveled down this path for their pilgrimages hundreds of years ago. Awesome!

Nowadays you have to avoid the crowds. I can't even feel the fragility of spring. This is a place where you can enjoy spring away from the crowds. Cherry blossoms blooming quietly away from the crowd. Oden Yokocho in Shizuoka is waiting for your journey.

Not this year, but in the rapeseed field in Shima Spain Village.

This is what I like to see! It's getting warmer and warmer with each passing day and the cherry blossoms are starting to bloom nicely. This weekend was alright, Saturday was a bit rainy but Sunday and today were really clear and the weather was great. Starting to feel like tshirt weather is coming soon! I love seeing the photos and other stuff about the Kawazu cherry blossoms, it really helps me get in the spring spirit! Going to try and get outside the city this weekend or next and see some of the cherry blossoms in Saitama or something, as unfortunately, Kanagawa is a liiittle too far for a day trip lol. We'll see what happens though. Either way I'm gonna see some cherry blossoms!

Drooping plum blossoms in the garden of Suzuka Forest. The splendid drooping plum blossoms are fascinated by the craftsmanship.

It is a rapeseed field in southern Izu. I feel spring one step ahead.

Sparkly and fluffy plum blossoms. It is warm and soothing to the heart.

Wow I looked this place up and it's amazing! I'm surprised it doesn't seem as popular as other flower parks but it has some really beautiful scenery. There's a ton of different gardens all with different themes as well. Spring is coming soon so it's something to keep in mind I suppose! I've never heard of Tasha Tudor either but I'm curious to see what kind of picture books she wrote know. I love that Japan has a lot of these types of themed attractions so you can not only enjoy the location itself but also the history behind it or the history that it is brings to life. Hopefully I can get out to Gifu this spring/summer. The place is called "Flower Festival Commemorative Park" for anyone wondering.

In Gifu City, it rarely snows every year, and this year it rained, so I went to a nearby shrine to take pictures before work.

Man that's beautiful. I read an article about this place on here as well. I really want to visit. The water is so clear it reminds me a lot of Oshino Hakkai, but I think the color of the water makes this place just a liiiiittle more beautiful. Although it's a pretty tough call lol. It's interesting how the article mentioned that the best time of year is fall to see the autumn leaves reflected on the surface of the water, but I bet spring would be just as beautiful. I guess it depends on if there's any cherry blossoms around the pond. I definitely saw maples though! I'll have to try the chimaki as well if I get the chance, I'd never heard of it until now.

Whoa! Now those are some fireworks! Holy crud, this is insane. I don't think I've ever seen fireworks this bright and colorful and I've been to the Omagari Fireworks Festival before! Didn't know that Mie had such amazing fireworks. All of the good fireworks festivals are so far away from Tokyo ?. Just more reason to explore other areas of Japan though I suppose. Apparently this is the Kihoku Lantern Festival too so I'd get to see some beautiful lanterns on the water as well. Hopefully I can get out some this summer, been cooped up indoors for way too long at this point, and I'm starting to miss the fresh nippon breeze ?. Hopefully spring comes somewhat early this year so I can see some cherry blossoms and drink some plum wine while barbecuing lol!

What a beautiful photo! I've seen a Japanese friendship garden in Portland I think it was but this one has a totally different atmosphere. It's really cool to see the different styles. I hadn't heard of West Lake before but I looked at some pictures of it and it looks like a beautiful place. I like how the architecture of the pavilions is very similar as well. I'm certainly a fan of all of the winter scenery I've gotten to see this year, but I feel like the cherry blossoms would certainly look amazing here. That or even the foliage in the autumn. I'd like to check this out when I get the chance. It looks like there are some interesting restaurants in the area as well so I can look forward to some tasty food!

Gifu Park Japan-China Friendship Garden Snow Scenery ❄️ In 1989, Gifu City and Hangzhou City, People's Republic of China, created a garden to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the friendship city partnership, and a gate with a design full of Chinese atmosphere, earthen walls, gardens, and a pond made to imitate West Lake, a famous place in Hangzhou City. This pond is a pond that can be enjoyed throughout the four seasons. ? The cherry blossom season is famous, but the snowy scenery is also the best. When you come to Gifu, please take a walk in Gifu Park. ?

Monet's pond was ? beautiful. I want to go again!

Tried a new tsuyu again lol. A spicy flavor this time. It’s not as spicy as it looks actually, just the right level of spicy. The tsuyu was 赤から apparently from Nagoya. Goes great with udon too. Tasted really good

Couple Rock ✨ It's tasteful ^ ^

I heard on the news that it was going to snow, so I took my camera for a walk in the morning. The rice fields and trees were dyed white and beautiful.
