The morning sun shines from the fresh green of spring... Mt. Rokko in Kobe has been redressed! !! The photo is a morning scene taken near the ridge of the Omote Rokko Driveway in mid-April. I climbed the hill on a road bike, but it was a pleasant cycling that felt moderately sweaty I climbed slowly. Mt. Rokko was opened as a leisure mountain by foreigners in the Meiji era, and Arthur Herkes Groom, who built the first mountain villa, is called the "founder of Mt. Rokko." The first mountain villa was built at a place called Mikuni Pond after climbing the driveway in the photo to the ridge. From there, foreigners and Japan people built mountain villas one after another, forming a village. It seems that there are no mountain villas left from that time now, but you can still see many recreation centers of various companies in the vicinity. Even if you actually climb on a road bike, you can meet foxes, raccoons, woodpeckers, squirrels, moles and monkeys, and you can feel that you have come to nature in a different world from the city. How about 😊 forest bathing for a mental retreat this spring?

Tanuki's cherry blossom viewing 🌸 I went to Shigaraki, Shiga Prefecture. Tanuki at Shigaraki Station on the railway! It looks like you are leisurely looking at the cherry blossoms under the magnificent cherry blossoms. Wow! And the face when I looked up is cute ♡. There is also a museum and many Shigaraki ware shops nearby. This local pottery, "Shigaraki ware", which has been blessed with high-quality soil since ancient times and has excelled at making large vessels, was ✨ impressive just by looking at it. Some are from the Kamakura period, Even the ones that make you feel the newness of modern craftsmen are a good stimulus. I liked ♡ the elegant black shiny vessel with gold mixed with glaze. Next time I go, I would like to book a potter's wheel experience and try something new.
