Wrapped in an arch of roses           Tokyo Tower🗼 This is one photo taken from Shiba Park, Minato-ku, Tokyo. Since its opening in 1958, it has been watching over the city as a symbol of Tokyo for about 60 years. It is said that the construction technology of that time is so advanced that it is said that it cannot be reproduced now. It has been earthquake-resistant for more than 60 years in Japan, an earthquake-prone country, and I felt that it was the crystallization of craftsmanship. Why don't you enjoy matching with modern roses? 🌹

Romantic silhouette of Okinawa Manzamo  The view from about halfway between the two beaches of Manza Beach and Onna Seaside Park Nabi Beach. The weather in Okinawa is wild. I often encounter stormy weather when I travel, both domestically and overseas, but when I was driving here, it was pitch black all around, and it rained so much that it was difficult to drive, so I escaped to a parking lot near here. I was depressed in the car for a while, but I knew the change in the environment by the dazzling light that came through the window. When I looked, the sky cracked, and a vivid light blue peeked out into the heavy vision covered with grey and black, and a golden light shone on my face. End of April. A day when I felt the Omen of summer.

Ise Jingu Shrine that I went to for the First Pilgrimage to the Shrine! !! Both the outer and inner shrines are lush with greenery, and you can feel the natural taste and divinity from ancient times, and it is truly Power Spot, and I think that you should definitely go with someone who wants to have a relationship with you *^^* To get to the Inner Shrine, you need a bus from the Outer Shrine, but you can get to the Outer Shrine from Osaka Namba to Ise City without changing trains on the Kintetsu Limited Express, so I think it is easy to access from the Kansai area. If you also visit the Inner Shrine, it is also recommended to taste Specialties dishes such as Ise Udon noodles from Ise Specialties and beef skewers from Matsusaka beef at Okage Yokocho, which is a stone's throw away.

This is one of the mountain trails in Hyogo Prefecture, the former Fukuchiyama Line Abandoned railway lines! It used to be a coal mine, and the site where the railway was used as a transportation route is now known as a mountain trail full of nature. While it is an abandoned railway line and you can feel the history and remnants of the past, it is an easy-to-walk mountain trail with plenty of nature and not many ups and downs, so I personally would like to recommend it to those who want to enjoy hiking with parents and children.

The jacaranda, the flower that heralds early summer in Atami. Whether it will bloom or not is something you won’t know until the season arrives. The jacaranda is a bit capricious that way. Two trees gifted in 1990 from Atami’s sister city, Cascais in Portugal, have grown into more than 100 plantings today. Once native mainly to tropical regions, one of the world’s three great flowering trees has now come to announce early summer in Atami. Along the shore in June, clusters of small trumpet-shaped, blue-violet jacaranda flowers paint the sky like bouquets from Omiya Green Space to Sun Beach. Each year in early June during the blooming season, we hold the Jacaranda Festival. Legend says that if a flower falls on your head, happiness will come. How many will bloom this season? Come and see these precious purple blossoms.♪ *During the event period, light-ups will take place. Please note that blooming times may vary.* Event period / June 1, 2024 – June 16, 2024 Venue / Jacaranda Promenade (around Omiya no Matsu) Light-up hours / Daily during the above period from 18:00 to 22:00
