Iwate Prefecture Gose Dam cherry blossom trees I went out to photograph the cherry blossoms of Koiwai Farm with Mt. Iwate in the background, but unfortunately the cherry blossoms had just blossomed, and Mt. Iwate did not appear due to the temperature difference between the mountains and the sky. I stopped by because the row of cherry blossom trees at Gosho Dam that I passed by was splendid. It was impressive that the cherry blossom grove seemed to shine in the sunlight shining through the clouds.

Tsuruta Town, Aomori Prefecture, Tsuru no Mai Bridge Lake Tsugaru Fujimi, where the Tsuru no Mai Bridge is located, has a tragic love story from 600 years ago. At that time, the lord of Kiyomizu Castle Mayamanomori falls in love with Princess Hakusan, whom he met at a house he stopped at while hunting. It is said that the princess, with her long black hair and fair skin, looked like a white lily. However, the owner of the castle changes his mind and marries Kotohime, who was introduced to him by a wealthy farmer. Upon learning of this, Princess Hakusan throws herself into the Great Reservoir, and her remorse turns into a white dragon and curses the castle owner. And the castle owner also threw himself into this reservoir. Thanks to the memorial services of the villagers, this pond has now become a source of water for Tsugaru Shinden and has been blessed with abundant blessings.

Hachirogata Lagoon's "Cherry Blossom and Rape Blossom Road" Hachirogata was reborn as a 17,239-hectare "Land of Hope" in March 1977 after more than 20 years of reclamation work with the aim of alleviating food shortages after World War II. In 1984, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the village's founding, the villagers planted 3,000 cherry trees in three years, and 1,000 cherry trees in commemoration of the 50th anniversary. Rape blossoms were planted by local volunteers. "Thanks" for the masterpiece of Somei Yoshino, Yaezakura, Beniyama cherry blossoms and rape blossom road that stretches for about 11 km! !!

Wow, this is so cool. It's crazy that the ground is so shiny here that you can see the cherry blossoms reflecting off the ground. This temple seems like it'd be amazing t visit at night. I wonder how the stars look from here. If you could see them from here that'd make this a 10/10 lol. I'm not actually sure what temple this is, but Japan has so many amazing temples that are like this and they just have some of the most amazing architecture and views. I'll still never forget the first time I went to Kiyomizudera and was just blown away by not only the scale of the temple, but the architecture and history that you could feel just by being there. Might visit a temple over golden week, we'll see. Gotta find out where this is at too!
