Kanazawa is famous for its old townscapes such as Kenrokuen Garden and Higashi Chaya Street, but my favorite place is "Taiyogaoka Metasequoia Avenue". There is a sidewalk on the tree-lined street that stretches for about 500 meters, and you can enjoy a relaxing time while looking at the sparkling metasequoia. When I think about the fact that I couldn't do such an obvious thing with Corona, I can't help but feel the happiness of my normal life.

"Autumn reflection" Recently I visited enkoji temple in Kyoto to enjoy the vibrant autumn colors. During my visit I saw really beautiful autumn colors and thought if I could take a reflection of this autumn colors then it might look better. Unfortunately there was no such option. So, I used my mobile phone as a mirror to reflect the colors and took the photos on a camera. Although it could be better than this one but since now several people are visiting the temple I could take only two shots. Atleast I am happy with this one. The autumn colors in Enkoji temple is now in full peak and it truely reflect the autumnal beauty of Japan.

"An autumnal mist" During my visit to Daisho-in temple in Miyajima I witnessed this autumn mist along with very cute Jizo statues. The mist, sunlight, autumn colors and Jizo statues makes the atmosphere astonishingly beautiful. It touched my heart and I will remember this particular moments for long time. It was one of my best autumn moments.

Sorachi Shrine Even on a strong midsummer sun, this place is surrounded by trees and has a lot of shade, so it always cools down a little. The tradition and atmosphere that have been passed down from ancient times are a place where you can calm your mind somewhere at the "Sorachi Shrine" in the center of Bibai. The Tunda Artillery Corps was deployed in Meiji 24, and the shrine was established at the same time as the opening of the village due to the migration of the Tunda Cavalry and the special training corps of engineers. After that, a shrine was built, renamed, relocated, etc., and has continued to the present.

That is the "bracelet protection making experience". While learning explanations and how to make them from the priest, you can think and design by yourself, and make each one with your own hands. After making it, we moved to the temple and prayed before the gods. You can spend a very precious time. * The bracelet protection making experience requires a reservation. Another initiative I would like to introduce is hydrangea. Local volunteers and organizations are taking the lead in planting trees on the promenade next to Sorachi Shrine to increase the number of famous places in Bibai. It will be a few years before the whole thing is in full bloom, but when it is in full bloom, I would like to introduce it in detail again. If you are a little tired of daily life or want to experience the traditions of Japan, please come to Sorachi Shrine if you stop by Bibai.

Coal Mine Memorial Forest Park (Former Mitsubishi Bibai Coal Mining Facility) As you head towards the mountains from the Bibai intersection, you will see something like a red steel tower flickering from the top of the trees. This place, surrounded by nature, is called "Coal Mine Memorial Forest Park" The red steel tower is a coal mining heritage pit winding tower, and there are two towers about 20 meters high. In fact, the logo of our association is also based on the B of BIBAI and this pit turret. There are many towns in Sorachi that flourished from coal mining. The Coal Mine Memorial Forest Park is a park that utilizes the heritage of the former Mitsubishi Bibai coal mining facility. Today, the pit tower, the switching station that managed the power supply, and the raw coal pocket remain. A 170-meter-deep pit was built at this site in the 12th year of the Taisho era, and at that time it had a reputation as a modern model pit in Japan. In the early Showa period, the amount of coal produced exceeded 1 million tons per year, making it the largest coal mine in the entire coal mine of Mitsubishi Mining. After that, it continued to develop after World War II, but due to a change in energy policy from the Showa 30s, the Mitsubishi Bibai Coal Mine was closed in July of Showa 47, and with the closure of the mine, the Bibai Railway, which ran from Bibai Station to Tokiwadai, also closed the curtain of its 60-year history. The pit turret and raw coal pocket were selected as a modernization industrial heritage designated by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry in November 2019. At the request of the Yasuda Tsuyoshi Sculpture Museum Arte Piazza Bibai and the world-renowned sculptor "Yasuda Tsukura", three new sculptures have been installed in the park since July 30. The works on display were "Myōmu" in front of the pit tower, "Ishinki" in the pit opening and closing station, and "Fubuki" in front of the raw coal pocket The collaboration between coal mining heritage and art further enhances the atmosphere. It can be a day when red shines in the blue sky, a cloudy day, a starry sky, or a snowy location with a pure white location. Why don't you visit once?

Toming Park In the northernmost Yoshino cherry colony, Bibai City Tomei Park, about 2,000 cherry trees such as Yoshino cherry blossoms, Ezoyama cherry blossoms, Chishima cherry blossoms, and Yaezakura trees welcome you. There are various cherry blossoms in the park that bloom at different times, making it a spot where you can enjoy cherry blossoms for a long time. There is also a rare cherry blossom with a single red line on the petals, making it a space where you can be enveloped in various cherry blossom colors and scents. About 2,000 cherry blossoms and 5,000 azaleas bloom in the park in spring, and the lotus in the pond has cute flowers in summer, and in autumn it is a spot for autumn leaves, showing the expressions of each of the four seasons and delighting visitors. Tomei Park was opened in September 1963 as a place of relaxation for citizens. In Showa 43, 200 cherry trees were planted to make it a famous place for cherry blossoms. Since then, various organizations have planted cherry blossoms, azaleas, maples, etc., and their flowers are still blooming beautifully. In addition, I find it even more attractive to see Yoshino Somei living hard even in the harsh environment of the northernmost limit. In the past, Tomei Park, which became famous as the place where the cherry blossoms bloom at the end of the song "Sakura" sung by singer Naotaro Moriyama in the recording of a TV program, is located in the hilly area of Tomei, Bibai City, and is crowded with many visitors from outside the city every year during the cherry blossom season.
