Beautiful view, looks like Mt. Yoshino if I'm not mistaken? Either way, I totally agree. Can't wait for corona to be over so I can finally take my mask off and walk around and smell the fresh air. During the spring when the cherry blossoms were in bloom I was walking on a street with cherry blossoms and took my mask off for a second (no one was around) and I realized it was the first time I'd had my mask off outside all spring. Smelling the cherry blossoms was amazing, just a full year of wearing a mask and you nearly forget what nature smells like. Hopefully, come spring next year I'll be able to walk outside and smell the cherry blossoms and whatever else is blooming in the area. I'd love to be able to go traveling again just like normal and be able to take in not just the sights and sounds, but the smells as well. Until then, just gotta keep hanging in there! Edit: This is Takami no Sato, not Mt. Yoshino. I was mistaken. They look very similar though!

The sight of the mountains dyed pink with drooping cherry blossoms in full bloom is a masterpiece.
After Corona, I want to take off my mask and breathe in the fresh mountain air as much as possible.

Wow what a cool sight! I've been out to Nagatoro and Chichibu and went on a riverboat ride and I think I remember the guy pushing the boat saying something about there being icicles there during the winter. I'd love to go back and see it sometime as this looks really amazing. Also we wanted to try the kayaking in Nagatoro as well since the water was too low when we went and the boat we rode on couldn't go as far downriver. I guess they have some skiing there as well, I'm not sure if it's connected to the ropeway at all, but that's another cool thing to do in the area. The mountain is really beautiful and I think there's probably a good amount of cherry blossoms if you go in the spring. I'd like to explore Chichibu more though as I hear there's a pilgrimage there where you can see temples and shrines and stuff.

Chichibu City, Saitama in winter
"Icicle of the Thirty Hammers" near the mouth of the three peaks

The icicles I saw for the first time were different from the documents and videos
It gave me a fantastic impression somehow.
It was normal to feel cold, but somehow I felt warmth.

This looks like a really cool place to visit in Yamanashi if you're heading over to Mt. Fuji or the five lakes. Apparently this place (Saiko Iyashi no Sato Nenba) was destroyed by a landslide caused by a typhoon in the 60s but was rebuilt some 40 years later. Looks like there's a bunch of stuff to do as well: museums, galleries, craft making experiences, etc. I'm curious as to whether or not the thatched roofs are constructed the same way as the Gassho-zukuri roofs of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, as they look very similar. I bet it'd look really nice in the winter when it snows and there's also cherry blossoms in the area so that'd be nice for visiting in the spring. Looks fun!

Lined with thatched-roof houses overlooking Mt. Fuji, a World Heritage Site
"West Lake Healing Village".

There is no doubt that you will be healed by the original scenery of the Japan.

Man this place is really amazing. I've seen lots of photos about Nabana no Sato but I haven't seen any that looked like this. I know there are some really pretty cherry blossoms here in the spring too and they even have weeping cherry blossoms as well. I'd love to visit when they're in bloom, but there's also supposed to be some really amazing scenery in the fall when the leaves change color. It's really awesome they have Anpanman in the field too lol. Some of the other characters I'm not sure about but I know I've seen them before. I know about Shokupanman though since I personally love bread lol. I'm used to seeing the illuminations of this place so this is really cool getting to see a side of it I hadn't seen before.

Nabana no Sato, Mie Prefecture. A spot to go to when I go to Aichi Prefecture where my grandfather is. When I first saw it as a child, I was impressed. And even if I go there again 10 years later, I am still impressed. It does not fade over time, and it is a place where I, who was not interested in flowers until now, was taught the beauty of flowers. I want to go again when Corona calms down. It is the only family trip memory and a place that the whole family loves.

In Towada City, Aomori Prefecture, this is a Yabusame tournament held only by female jockeys around the time the cherry blossoms are in bloom. Female jockeys dressed in glossy kimono carry bows, ride on horses of Japan traditional lineage, and fly quickly through three targets while frying dust. Originally, Yabusame is an event held only by men as a Shinto ritual, but befitting the modern era of the 21st century, the gender difference between men and women has been abolished, and the ancient traditions of martial arts and equestrian arts that have been handed down from ancient Japan times have been adopted and passed on to future generations, and the world of glossy kimono fushiko is worth visiting and seeing. At the 4th "COOL JAPAN VIDEOS" Photo Contest - Spring of Japan, we were selected as one of the six winners out of 1,000 entries and received an honorable mention. 【Spring Shooting】

In Towada City, Aomori Prefecture, this is a Yabusame tournament held only by female jockeys around the time the cherry blossoms are in bloom. Last year, it was canceled due to the influence of the new coronavirus, but this year it was held with corona countermeasures. The cherry blossom front reaches the northern tip of Honshu around mid-April. The Yabusame Tournament, in which petting children in glossy Japanese attire unfold, heralds the arrival of spring in this area along with the cherry blossom front.
