Gyoikou is a plant of the genus Prunus in the Rosaceae family. Sakura is a cultivation variety native to Japan that was born based on the Oshima cherry tree. The name has been seen since the middle of the Edo period, and its origin is close to the yellow color of aristocratic clothing. Another name seems to be "misogi (exorcism)".   The yellow of the robe in this photo is the yellow of the "Akiba Shrine" in Shimizu Town, Suwa City. This shrine has a number of large zelkova trees, and there are about three Shrine at the base, making it a very fantastic shrine that seems to appear in yellowtail work.  If you enter the Akiba Shrine and go to the back on the left, you will find this robe yellow. This cherry blossom blooms about two weeks later than Someiyoshino, and usually blooms ? around Golden Week! The time of year is about the same time as the Double Cherry Blossom (Yae zakura). At the beginning of blooming, the inside of the petals is light green, and near the end of the flower, a light pink streak appears in the center! The trees have lost their momentum since the past, but as it is written on the signboard, the average age of the trees seems to be about 20 years. If you look closely, you can see that the tree was planted on May 25, 1975, so it is 49 years old this year. It's amazing, isn't it!! Also, don't you ♪ think that unlike the famous pink cherry blossoms, they are pale yellow-green and give off a wonderful color? After Someiyoshino, it is a pleasure every year to see the Double Cherry Blossom(Yae zakura) and this mii yellow.  Answer! This cherry blossom was written in post English by me on Instagram on January 18 of this year, and the "light green colored cherry blossom" was the yellow of ♪ this Akiba Shrine's robe Please take a look at the post in English. Also, as far as I know, it is a facility in Suwa City, but there was also a green cherry blossom that seemed to be a yellow robe on the premises of the pruned tree recycling facility (former Suwa City Cleaning Center) in Suwa City. This is a facility in Suwa City, so please take a look when you go to recycle pruned trees in early spring.   From next year onwards, if you can't make it in time for Someiyoshino around April, please add it to your options to see Mii Huang. Especially in Suwa City and Town/Village six cities near Suwa, there are such unusual cherry blossoms here! If you have any Information, not just cherry blossoms, I would ♪ like to go as much as possible!! Suwa Tourist Association We look forward to following you → @suwa_nagano Instagram!

Doll memorial service Nagano Prefecture Suwa City Hot Spring Temple (Rinzai sect Myoshinji sect) On March 17, 2014, I went to a Hot Spring Temple. It is about a 10-minute walk from Kamisuwa Station. This temple offers Traditional Japanese straw raincoat dolls and stuffed animals. It's like a funeral for Traditional Japanese straw raincoat dolls and stuffed animals. At the Hot Spring Temple, a memorial service for dolls is held every March.  In Japan, there is a Boys' Day (May 5) and a Girls' Day (March 3). Most grandparents give dolls as gifts for their grandchildren to pray for the growth and health of their children. It is a traditional doll original to Japan. That's why many Japanese families have Japanese dolls. I think dolls also have a soul like animism. So, if your child has a doll, the child will play with the doll. Adult, I think we move away from dolls. Most Japanese people don't simply throw away the dolls that have watched their children grow up. Because the doll spent time with the child. Most Japanese people think that dolls have souls. That's why we make a memorial service for the dolls.  On this day, more than 1,000 dolls were gathered. The priest recited sutras on dolls and stuffed animals for about 30 minutes. The priest gave thanks to the doll with cleansing salt. We prayed with the same feeling.   It was a very, very strange experience. I've never seen so many dolls and stuffed animals. However, it is a very hearty Buddhist offering for the doll. I feel that I was able to feel the Buddhist sentiment a little. That's why I love Japan!!  Hot Spring Temple is also famous as a famous place for autumn leaves. If you want to see the beautiful autumn leaves, please come and see the autumn leaves at the Hot Spring Temple.

When I went to Takashima Castle around Golden Week, students from a local junior high school came to sketch Takashima Castle.  When I went near the wisteria flowers, there was a very sweet and wonderful scent in the air. Before I knew it, bees and black bees were ? coming to take nectar ~ Even as a human, it was a wonderful scent that attracted me!! I don't know why the demons of Demon Slayer don't like this wonderful flower www I think it's a wonderful flower. A shot from under the wisteria ledge is recommended!! I didn't know that wisteria flowers were blooming in the pond even though I was a local. I'm sorry, Mr. Takashimajo. When I looked at the whole wisteria flower on this day, I thought that it would bloom for seven minutes today to the untrained eye!   On the premises, there is a rare Gokoku Shrine ⛩ in Japan that resembles the construction of Suwa Grand Shrine. There seems to be a rare sculpture.  Every year, I think it's about Golden Week, but it's very beautiful and you can see it. The castle, the park, and the wisteria flowers are waiting ? for you next year, so please come!

Finally, on April 1, 2024, the Suwa Lake Cycling Road was completed. The circumference of Suwa Lake is about 16 km. It is a lake that has been loved by locals for a long time. When I was in the sixth grade of elementary school, I remember the first time I rode a bicycle around Suwa Lake with a friend. I think the locals have an episode of their first circumnavigation of Suwa Lake. In addition, I think that it will be a newly maintenance cycling road that is easy to ride by bicycle and has a nice scenery. On holidays when the weather is nice, the excitement will increase!   "No, no, I'm going to have a bicycle from now on..." "What kind of bicycle should I use now?" If you are wondering "What is an electrically power assisted bicycle?", Why don't you take this opportunity to relax around Lake Suwa Lake with your family and friends on a rental cycle around Lake Suwa Lake? * Regular holidays, business hours, etc. please check each website. ・Activity Base Cogue ・JBT Suwa visit rental cycle ・Suwa Lake Bicycle Rental ・SUWA Glass Village   Electrically power assisted bicycles can easily climb Slope! You can also go to that Famous Tateishi Park and the Kirigamine Highlands, which Suwa is proud of, by bicycle!! Taking the opportunity of the completion of this Suwa Lake Cycling Road, why don't you use your own bicycle to cycle around Suwa Lake or rent an electrically assisted bicycle and challenge yourself to go around Lake Suwa Lake and Kirigamine Highlands? If you get tired, there are parks, cafes, and foot baths, and ♪ I don't think you can find such a blessed environment in Japan. There are cafes and parks along the cycling path, but there are not many foot baths! I think. Use the foot bath easily as long as you have a towel. It will blow away your ♨ tiredness And Swaichi! Did you know? If you go around Suwa Lake by bicycle, take a picture of the three spots of Suwa, Shimosuwa, and Okaya with your smartphone, go to the tourist information center of each city (Kamisuwa Station, Shimosuwa Station, Okaya Station) by yourself and show the photos of the three spots, you will receive a Swaichi certificate and a commemorative badge (you cannot choose the color)! Please try it with your children and friends. A testament to the circumnavigation of Suwa Lake and a commemorative swaichi! Challenges are also recommended. ※ Photo courtesy of Activity Base Cogue The seventh photo is one of my favorite scenic Spot!! Look for it!

Nagikama Shrine ⛩ The other day, I went to visit the Yabukama Shrine in Kirigamine for the first time. Last year, I heard Torii (shrine gate) ⇒ that there was a "Nagikama Shrine" that had been changed to a wooden stone monument, and I was originally thinking of going there because of the thaw, and I decided to go with the words of my wife, who loves Kirigamine. As a lover of pillars, I have come to like visiting shrines and other places, and I have always wanted to go to the Yabukama Shrine, so I thought I finally had the opportunity to go to Kirigamine with my camera.  I parked my car in the parking lot under the ski resort and headed towards the glider pavilion as I heard from an acquaintance, but I was not confident and was nervous, and there was a small sign in front of the glider pavilion that said ⇒ Yagikama Shrine 0.5 km, so I headed there. I felt that it was surprisingly far away. Together with his two children and his wife, he walked for a few minutes while touching the nature of Kirigamine. I could see the stone monument of the Nagikama Shrine. Since it is a shrine, the Torii (shrine gate) is more chic, but this is also a stone monument and it is quaint!! I thought. The approach road was also paved with wood chips, and it was very beautiful and maintained and easy to walk. When I arrived at the Shrine, there was a breathtaking view... For the first time in a long time, I couldn't suppress my excitement. The fact that the day I visit was sunny was also α to the superb view, and it was wonderful!! The Suwa Basin spreads out below, Lake Suwa Lake stands very beautifully, the Central Alps are in front, the Northern Alps are on the right, the Southern Alps are on the left, Mt. Fuji is on the side, and Yatsugatake is behind the left. Isn't there a shrine in Japan where you can see the mountains like this? I think so!! ? As a self-proclaimed hunter of Suwa City's spectacular scenery, this spectacular view immediately became a ranker!! Tateishi Park also overlooks Suwa-no-Taira and has a very good view, but this one has an indescribable beauty because the Elevation Gari even higher. I post that this is not only in my heart!! The shuin stamps is new, and if you are visiting the shrine of Suwa, please stop by when you come to Kirigamine!! If it's sunny, I don't think you'll regret it! ・ God of worship Kenmikata Ōkami (also known as Osuwa-sama : Takeminakata God of valor, fertility of five grains, etc.)  ・ Daisen Ōkami (Ōyamatsumi : As the god of industry and shipping, as well as the god of sake dissolution, the ancestor of sake brewing) ・ Ashinazuchi Tema Milk Ōkami (Tenazuchi) ⇐ Parents of Kushinada Hime (Kushinada Hime : Susanoo's wife) Here, the Dedication of the Nagi Sickle (a sacred vessel shaped like a sickle) found in the former Motomisayama Ruins is dedicated. The scythe is struck on the pillar after the main pillar has been determined. It is said that it is only hammered on the pillars of the Suwa Grand Shrine Upper Shrine, which is a strange thing. The shape is a sickle shaped like the head of a male chicken, which is also the "sacred weapon" of Suwa Grand Shrine. The sickle is enshrined in the Shrine, so please take a look along with the superb view. Suwa Grand Shrine also has a nagikamamori ♪
