It is the cherry blossom of Kodama District, Saitama Prefecture, "Kodama Senbon Sakura". It is famous in the northern part of Saitama Prefecture. Beautiful cherry blossoms bloom every year. I'm looking forward to it again this year.

My today's recommendation: Kurashiki in Okayama Prefecture. Historical canal town kurashiki . Kurashiki Bikan historical area is also known as "town of storehouses" and many of the storehouses are converted into a restaurant/ cafe or museum. Here you can enjoy canal boat riding to feel the old days charm.

I took this photo at "Aqua Park Shinagawa" near Shinagawa Station in Tokyo! !! I visited to take pictures with a friend from the photography club. A dolphin parade is being held, and dolphins fly coolly in time with the light and sound. There is no doubt that you will be attracted by the cuteness and coolness of the dolphins!!! In addition to the parade, you can also see a jungle zone and sea animals such as penguins, seals, otters, and sharks! Please visit when you go to Shinagawa Station!

This is the Tokyo Sky Tree taken from the observation room of Shibuya SKY. I was careful to clearly capture the cityscape in the foreground.

It is Yurigahama Beach that appears only at low tide on Yoron Island, Kagoshima Prefecture. The beautiful turquoise waters and white sand beaches will truly enchant you. You can go by ferry from Kagoshima Prefecture and Okinawa mainland. I think it's worth going just to see this spectacular view because it's really impressive.

This is a photo of Shirakawa-go when it is lit up. It was clear and I was able to take a beautiful picture of the sky.

My today's recommendation is Hakone. From where one can see several things, like lake ashi, mount fuji, owakudani volcano and many more. But I thing the best part is ridding the pirate ship over the lake ashi and enjoy the breath taking view of mount Fuji from the lake and also the view of Heiwa no torii. This red color torii gate is very famous tourist spot in Hakone.

Nabegamori Shrine I visit Shiso City quite often, but this is a place that I have been interested in for a long time, and I was finally able to visit it, and it was difficult to take a self-shoot because it was quite deep in the snow, but it was ? good to see it somehow.

Shibuya at night in cyberpunk. As Shibuya development progresses in the future, it will become more and more futuristic. I shot while imagining such things. Also, because Shibuya has many IT companies, I thought that the cyberpunk atmosphere would be a good match. The scramble crossing is always lively. I guess it will become more and more Shibuya and futuristic from now on. I'm really looking forward to that.

Hyakutoo. Two-linked! I feel like I haven't seen a two-car train of Kiha 110 in a long time... (^_^;) I also love the three mountains of Echigo, but this point that can be taken in the back of Gongendo is my favorite.

During the winter, Abashiri lake becom a completely frozen lake. One even can walk in the middle of the lake. During this time smelt fishing is a very popular and exciting events in hokkaido. Several people come here and make a tent. Inside the tent they create a whole by digging out the snow to reach the lake water. Then they do fishing. Although the weather usually very cold but still it provide a great pleasure. In addition to this smelt fishing one can also enjoy the drift ice from the nearby Abashiri port

Enjoying the winter wonderland Abashiri. This spot is very famous fr drift ice festival, snow festival and also smelt fishing in lake abashiri. Wherever we go we see only white and white. Here we are enjoying the the miniature iglu which also protect us from the strong cold wind coming from the okhotsk bay. Photo taken by using timer.

I took a night view of UMIE MOSAIC and the Ferris wheel in Harborland, Kobe! Did the light of the night view reflect off the water and take it beautifully? There are many shops where you can enjoy shopping and dining, and it is a place where you will not get bored even if you stay for a long time. There was also an Anpanman Children's Museum nearby, and there were ? many families with cute children.

I went to Meriken Park in Kobe! It is a very large park with children playing badminton and kite flying, and there is also Starbucks, so it is the perfect place to relax! I was finally able ? to take a picture of the famous "BE KOBE" monument lined up, and the weather was clear with a blue sky and it was ? pleasant.

The houses lined up by the sea look as if they are floating on the sea. The first floor housed boats, and the second floor was used as a drying area for nets and fishing gear. I was finally able to go to Ine's boathouse. I enjoyed the slow flow of time in a room without a TV and this view.

This time I want to recommend abashiri, a city on the northeastern coast of hokkaido. A city that faced toward sea of okhotsk. During winter you can enjoy drift ice festival. During this season they organize Lake Abashiri smelt fishing. It was a once in a lifetime experience for us. Here in this picture we were actually walking on the frozen lake abashiri. Here one can walk in the middle of frozen lake.

My first trip since my daughter was born! It was a beautiful sea (*^^*)

The five-storied pagoda of Ueno park looks very beautiful in every season. Ueno park is one of the most popular spots that hardly need any recommendations yet I want to recommend it because sometimes in a rush we somehow overlook a few things or spots that's why this post. Amid the colorless nature, the red pagoda and flower-printed Japanese umbrella in front of it formed a strangely beautiful scene. Although the pagoda is almost covered in flowers during the sakura season, once on a peony flower exhibition day when I went there I stopped after seeing such a sight. Amid the colorless nature, the red pagoda and flower-printed Japanese umbrella in front of it formed a strangely beautiful scene.

I went to the torii gate in the sky of Asama Shrine near Lake Kawaguchi It was sunrise. It was ? very beautiful Date 20203.02.04

A much less known place in Tokyo. Several tourist and local people usually visit Kama kura to see the great budha but unfortunately many of them don't know this great budha of Tokyo. This great budha of Tokyo is selected as one of the top 100 tourist spot in in new Tokyo. Additionally this is the 3rd largest bronze statue of budha in Japan. This is located in Akatsuka of Itabashi city. Almost no crowd but very well organized place. I highly recommend tourists to visit Tokyo daibutsu during their stay in Tokyo.

Mt. Fuji and the starry sky can be seen from the frozen Lake Yamanaka.

Oshino Hakkai is a unique spot in the Fuji Five Lakes regional which is also a mount fuji world heritage site having super clear blue water pond. From there you can see a brilliant view of Mt.Fuji between traditional thatched roof buildings, and a slowly rotating water wheel, that will surely give you an old-day charm. Another good thing is this place is looks unique and charming in any season of the year.
