Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video". Today, I would like to introduce a post by "y.k." The harmony between the sacred atmosphere of the torii gate and the kimono is impressive. Inuyama Castle in Inuyama City, Aichi Prefecture, is a tourist attraction that is loved as a symbol of Inuyama City. It is the oldest wooden castle tower in the Japan built by Oda Nobuyasu and is designated as a national treasure.

Around Inuyama Castle, which is built along the Kiso River, about 400 Yoshino cherry trees are planted, and it is also a popular cherry blossom viewing spot. In late March ~ early April, when the best time to see them is in full bloom, it is crowded with cherry blossom viewers.

Went on a trip to Sendai last weekend and had an awesome time. We were only there for 2 days and 1 night, but we managed to do everything we wanted to. On the first day we arrived at Sendai Station (the beautiful stained glass in photo #1) and had lunch, after which we headed over to our hotel, dropped off our bags, and then headed off to do some sightseeing. Our first stop was Funaoka Castle Park. The cherry blossoms were really nice and there was a cherry blossom festival or something like that taking place and there were some food stalls as wells, so we picked up some snacks and relaxed for a bit. We were able to see the large Kannon statue from a distance but opted not to go all the way to the top because we had some other stuff planned. After Funaoka Castle Park we made our way towards Shiroishi Castle. On the way to the castle from Funaoka Castle Park there’s the famous Hitome Senbon-Zakura, which we were able to enjoy for the entire walk to the castle. The cherry blossoms along the river were quite the treat. During our walk to the castle, we came across another cherry blossom festival with more food stalls. We had a couple more snacks and enjoyed the views before heading towards the station to get to Shiroishi Castle. As we were walking to the castle I found some cool art on some shop shutters. The path leading up to the castle was dotted with lanterns and was really pretty, especially as it was nearing sunset. We arrived at the castle with just a bit of sunlight left and we were just lucky enough to take some nice photos. After the castle, we had some dinner at a nice Izakaya and headed back to Sendai Station where our hotel was. The first day was all about seeing the beautiful views of cherry blossoms, but the second day we decided to enjoy the history and culture of the area. We started off by visiting Zuihoden, the mausoleum for Date Masamune. On the approach to the complex, we saw some interesting buildings where we stopped to take pictures and check out the architecture. The row of trees lining the steps to Zuihoden reminded me of the famous row of trees at Togakushi Shrine in Nagano. There were a lot of different structures, and learning about the history and what they were all built for was really interesting. Unfortunately I have too many photos and can’t post them all here. After we finished up at Zuihoden, which took a while because I wanted to read every single sign that we came across, we headed over to Sendai Castle (Aoba Castle). Again, I have too many photos to post, so I’ll just leave it to the famous statue of Date Masamune. The view from the top of the castle was quite nice and the other structures around the castle grounds were really interesting to learn about as well. After the castle, we were running out of time, and so we decided to start making our way back to Sendai Station. We ended up getting off a few stations early because my girlfriend had read that there was an event at Nishi Park. I can’t post all of the photos, but it was a really big cherry blossom festival with food stalls, etc. I highly recommend visiting Sendai during spring, as it’s definitely worth the trip. Most of the places we visited were not crowded at all, and we had an awesome trip.

I was able to take a spring-like photo.

The pink cherry blossoms and the castle shine.

At the Kawagoe Castle Honmaru Palace. It was such a nice scenery even though it was cloudy and sometimes rainy!

This is the view from the ruins of Nango Castle in Nichinan City, Miyazaki Prefecture. It is my favorite spot with the sea, islands, townscapes and iron bridges spreading out below. And in spring, the early-blooming cold cherry blossoms further color the scenery. This is private land, but the owner has maintained it and opened it free of charge in the hope that many people will enjoy the scenery of the former mountain castle. While chewing on gratitude, this scenery as if you were the owner of the castle is exceptional.
