SAMURAIHONOR
Oct. 5, 2023
Sanadazaemon Sayukimura, who persevered in righteousness in the world of the warring states and crossed paths with Tokugawa Ieyasu, was killed in the Osaka summer camp. However, he was handed down as the number one soldier of Hihon, and the border from Tennoji to Osaka Castle was Sanada Yukimura's Bushido Favorite quote, "Forget your indebtedness, devour your self-interest, can you call me a person?" I came around in red armor to feel it.

Okayama Korakuen Garden is one of the three most famous gardens in Japan in Okayama City. Every year from August 1st to 31st, the summer night illumination event "Fantasy Garden" is held. The lighting direction also changes little by little every year. During the period, projections and concerts are also held. It is also good to take a walk in the illuminated Japanese garden at night when it gets a little cooler.

It is "Mantoukai" in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Every year, Daishoin Temple and Tokoji Temple, the bodhi temples of the Mōri family, the lord of the Hagi clan, are the stage. To mourn Mohri's bodhi, more than 500 stone lanterns are lit by candles, creating a fantastic world. The photo shows the "Welcome Fire" held at Daishoin Temple on August 13. In Ōsho-in, the first feudal lord of Hagi Domain, Mōri Hidenori, and his wife from 2~12 generations of even-numbered feudal lords are enshrined, and in the graveyard, which is a nationally designated historic site, more than 600 stone lanterns donated by feudal lords are lined up in an orderly manner, and at the "Mantoukai", about 600 stone lanterns in the graveyard and candles are lit on the approach road.

It is a festival "Yanai Goldfish Lantern Festival" in Yanai City, Yamaguchi Prefecture.

The faintly lit "goldfish lanterns" in the white-walled city are somewhat humorous, and the gentle lights leaking from the "goldfish lanterns" create a fantastic atmosphere.

In 2023, it will be lit from July 22 Saturday ~ August 31 Thursday from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. in the Retro-dori area from the white-walled streetscape.
Please come to Yamaguchi Prefecture.

The "lights" of the cityscape swaying in the "light" of dawn... One of the hidden gem this time is from Ichishoyama, which is famous for the illumination of the Kobe City Emblem. At dusk, the city emblem and the Ikari mark are lit up on the mountains ... I took a picture of the night view from this very symbolic landmark of Kobe to Kobe and the Osaka Plain. With a vantage point, you can see farther than you can imagine. The night view beyond the photo is the Osaka Plain, and the mountains in the background are the Ikoma Mountains. Beyond the mountains is already Nara Prefecture. I was very surprised that Nara could be seen with the naked eye from Kobe. And the location with a good view also shows various "lights". The night sky, which was pitch black at first, gradually became bluer as the approaching sunrise approached, and then the dawn light appeared as if spilling over the eastern horizon. There was no sound, and the lights of the cityscape, which had not yet awakened from sleep, were twinkling in the cool and pleasant breeze. I like both the mysterious light of nature and this warm light of people. The moment you feel both beautiful, you strongly feel that this world is not "nature and people" but "people in nature". This time, we have delivered 😊 a piece from a special hidden gem where you can enjoy such two "lights" at the same time.

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video". Today, I would like to introduce a post by "HKP". It is a picture that reflects a mysterious charm that is different from the day. Matsumoto Castle, located in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, is an Edo period castle designated as a national treasure of Japan. Previously, it was called Fukashi Castle, but the Ogasawara clan became the castle owner and changed the name to "Matsumoto Castle". Matsumoto Castle, which is also a symbol of Matsumoto City, is full of attractions. The five castle towers are one of the features of Matsumoto Castle. The large castle tower on the 5th and 6th floors is divided into white plaster and black lacquer at the top and bottom of the castle walls, which is a rare structure at that time. In addition, many national treasures and important cultural properties such as coins and armor are on display, and are recommended for those who are interested in the history and culture of Japan. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom in the main maru and garden, and it is also popular with tourists as a famous place for cherry blossoms. You can enjoy about 300 cherry blossoms, and it is a cherry blossom viewing spot visited by many people. In addition, at night, a light-up event "Corridor of Light" is held, so you can fully enjoy the cherry blossoms at night. ◆Matsumoto Castle◆ 【Address】〒390-0873 Nagano Prefecture Matsumoto City Marunouchi 4-1 【Access】Train: Get off at Matsumoto Station on the JR Shinonoi Line and walk for about 20 minutes. 【Parking lot】Available charged For more information, please visit the official website.
