From the summit you can see the Sagami Plain and even Tokyo’s skyscrapers on clear days, and the mountain is listed among Kanagawa’s 50 scenic spots. ・Oyama Cable Car The Ōyama Cable Line, commonly called the Oyama Cable Car, is a 0.8 km cable car. With large windows to enjoy Ooyama’s nature, it provides easy access toward the summit. ・Daisenji Temple Daisenji sits on the mountainside and is also known as Mount Amefuri. In autumn the maple trees flanking the stone steps to the main hall turn brilliant red, making it a famous spot for autumn foliage. A “Momiji Festival” is held and draws many visitors. There are four types of goshuin (temple stamps), including a striking gold-letter special edition. [Access: Get off at Daisenji Station on the Oyama Cable Car, about a 3-minute walk] ・Oyama Afuri Shrine Founded over 2,200 years ago, the shrine enshrines the three deities Ōyamatsumi no Ōkami, Ooi-Kazuchi-no-Kami, and Takaokami-no-Kami.

Every year in mid-September red spider lilies bloom around Hinata Yakushi and attract many visitors. Hinata Yakushi offers many sights starting with the Kongorikishi statues along the approach. The Hoden, built to store cultural properties, houses 23 historic Buddhist statues, including eight nationally designated items and two prefecturally designated items.

Hello to everyone watching Cool Japan Video—nice to meet you! This is Kyowa-cho, Hokkaido. Kyowa-cho was formed in 1955 when Ozawa Village, Maeda Village, and Hattari Village merged. It borders five towns and one village, including Iwanai-cho and the Niseko Range. The town ranks among Hokkaido’s top producers of local brand fruits such as Raiden watermelons and Raiden melons. Kyowa-cho has long been a rice-producing area, growing varieties like Nanatsuboshi and Yumepirika. Since this is our first post, today we’ll share basic information and sightseeing highlights of Kyowa-cho, Hokkaido!

Popular sightseeing spots in Kyowa-cho, Hokkaido Niseko Shinsen-numa Natural Recreation Forest Niseko Shinsen-numa Natural Recreation Forest is a popular destination on a plateau above 750 m.

The parking area also serves as the forest’s rest facility and includes toilets and a shop. From a nearby observatory you can take in views of the Iwanai Plain and the Sea of Japan. The area contains several marshes, so visitors can enjoy a marsh-walking tour. Please note that the area is closed to traffic during the winter season from late October through late April. Shinsennuma Shinsennuma is a marsh in the Niseko range famed for its otherworldly beauty. The name Shinsennuma became popular after Toyomatsu Shimoda, founder of the Boy Scouts in Japan, visited and described it as a place where gods and immortals would dwell. The marsh changes its expression with the seasons—autumn foliage and fresh green leaves—and blooms of Ezo-kanzoso and cotton grass make Shinsennuma a place you’ll want to revisit. Onuma Onuma lies at an elevation of 850 m, framed by Mt. Weisshorn, which spans Kutchancho and Kyowa-cho, and Nitonupuri, which lies between Kutchancho and Rankoshi-machi.

After World War II Nishimura moved to France, where Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, Picasso’s dealer, discovered him; Nishimura based his career in Paris and received honors such as France’s Order of Arts and Letters. The museum rotates its exhibits about four times a year, letting visitors enjoy a variety of works. The museum also offers regular programs to enjoy art, and the views from the museum are a draw in themselves. Kakashi Furusato Kan Kakashi Furusato Kan was built to pass on the agricultural lifestyle and the pioneering history of Kyowa-cho to future generations. Inside, farming tools and household items are on display. The adjacent Former Horonai Elementary School has been restored and repurposed as an exhibition space, preserving the atmosphere of the original building as a historic structure.

Seasonal excursions in southern Izu. It is a ryokan in Yumigahama. The room bath is good, the service is good! I don't have any pictures of the food, but it was 😋 very delicious. It was a good inn ∩ ́∀'∩ 💕

First trip to Atami My first hot spring inn First fireworks festival There were still a lot of firsts for the two of them fireworks and he was looking up at his hand

My daughter studied abroad at Australia Gold coast last month and has not come back for a year and a half, so of course I am continuing the online English cram school, but I am coming to work at the inn as a live-inn! It is an inn called Rian in Kamogawa. If I don't keep myself busy, I'll 😂 only think about my daughter. It has been 17 days since I started working at the inn. Yesterday, I broke the boar mouth used at the inn, so I wanted to buy it and return it, so I 😌✨ visited the supplier's glass workshop. Main Glass Studio SUKIGALASS It's in the mountains, so come by car! No two glasses were the same, and they were ♡ lined with tasteful and beautiful glasses. Buy 💟 a plate for yourself The producer's uncle gave us a lot of information about the neighborhood. It may seem blunt at first, but he will talk to you about various things! Please 💞 stop by

Lake Suwa seen from the ryokan cafeteria The building with a Showa atmosphere has a unique charm and left a great impression.

At a ryokan at your travel destination Speaking of inns, it is this space by the window, and for some reason I always feel that I have come to travel without meaning to.

I stayed at Ryokan Fujiya. The hotel is very warm.

Nagano Prefecture Kinguya Ryokan! I want to go here with my friends again! #After Corona

What a beautiful photo! It actually reminded me of the Takeda Castle Ruins. All of the amazing autumn foliage and the sea of clouds in the area. Dang it, now I have to come here in two different seasons lol! I already knew the cherry blossoms were amazing on Mt. Yoshino but now I have to see the autumn foliage as well and hopefully the sea of clouds along with it. I love that you can see Kinpusenji Temple as well. I guess it's a World Heritage Site and I'd love to see it. I wonder if there are any nice inns up here as well. It'd be an amazing experience to stay the night up on the mountain after sightseeing in the area with all the natural scenery and the temple and then have some kaiseki cuisine at a nearby inn... But now I'm just getting myself excited and hungry haha. I'll have to do a bit more research later!
