This photo was taken in the evening from the ferry from Wakkanai to Rishiri Island. We were able to see a wonderful view by Rishiri Island floating in the sea at magic hour and the ferry that crossed in front.

I went to see the illuminations at the end of the year. It is a very beautiful and fun place, so please go there.

2.4 km north-south, 16 km east-west Tottori Sand Dunes. Along with Mt. Oyama, it is one of the symbols of Tottori Prefecture.

This is a photo of when I went to Adachi no fireworks festival before Corona. Adachi's fireworks festival, which I participated in for the first time, was more impressive than I expected. It has been canceled for the past few years due to the influence of Corona, so I would like it to be held again.

This is one of the photos when I went camping at the "Fumoto Exclusively Campsite" in Shizuoka Prefecture. It was the first time I had seen Mt. Fuji so close, and I couldn't help but take this photo because of its magnificence. Camping in this scenery was awesome.

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 "Koichi Hakuchuu's post "Snow and Kaminarimon." The snowy landscape, large lanterns, and scenery of Nakamise Street are fantastic photos. Kaminarimon (Kaminarimon) is the main gate of Sensoji Temple in Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo. The official name is Furaijinmon, and it comes from the fact that the god of wind is on the right and the god of thunder is on the left side facing the gate. The large red lantern with the word "Kaminarimon" written on it in the center of the gate is 3.9 meters high, 3.3 meters wide, and weighs about 700 kg. It is a popular tourist spot as a symbol of Asakusa. Kaminarimon has a long history, and the first Kaminarimon was built in 941. After that, it was repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt, and the current Kaminarimon gate was rebuilt in 1960. From the end of Kaminarimon to the entrance of Sensoji Temple, "Nakamise Street" that runs for about 250 meters is popular with tourists for eating and gourmets! A variety of gourmet dishes such as fried buns, okaki, and kibidango are lined up, and the strawberry daifuku skewer with a love lottery at the manju restaurant "Kikusuido" has become a hot topic on SNS! You can enjoy strawberries, castella, and daifuku at once. The standard doll grill as a souvenir of Asakusa is also recommended in bite-sized pieces and easy to eat. ◆Kaminarimon (風雷神門)◆ 【Address】〒111-0032 2-3-1 Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo 【Access】 Tobu Skytree Line: 5-minute walk from Asakusa Station Tokyo Metro Ginza Line: 5-minute walk from Asakusa Station 【Parking Lot】Yes: Kaminarimon Underground Parking Lot, in front of Kaminarimon Be careful of crowds between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.

#Statues of children everywhere on Mt. Takao It was so divine that I took a picture every time I saw it. #Sanroku Doji It is a genus of King Fudo Myō, and each one is said to have 10 million retinue. It is said that when the name of the Sanroku Doji is chanted, evil spirits dissipate, protect those who worship them from behind, and bring longevity. It's hard to remember all the names, but I did learn Wonder Doji and Hara Harado Doji (laughs). I hope I can learn everything slowly. I want to learn what kind of people they are.

Okayama Korakuen Garden in Okayama City is one of the three famous gardens in Japan, and the daytime scenery is beautiful, but the "Fantasy Garden" held three times a year in spring, summer, and autumn has a different beauty.

It's a classic foot hula, but it's beautiful no matter how many times you visit!

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 Kunihito Otsubo's post "Gorgeous Nijo Castle Gate". The vivid shape is impressive. Nijo Castle, officially named Nijo Castle in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, is a historic castle registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994 (Heisei 6). It was built by Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1603 (Keicho 8) as a guardian and lodging place for the Kyoto Imperial Palace, and it is also famous as the place where the 15th shogun Keiki announced his return to power. The castle is full of valuable historical heritage such as Ninomaru Garden (Special Place of Scenic Beauty) and Higashi Otemon (Important Cultural Property). The Karamon gate at the entrance of the Ninomaru Palace is a highlight of the gorgeous carvings on the roof. Various creatures such as shochiku plums, cranes, peonies, and butterflies are livelied. The seasonal nature and events are also attractive. Last year, "NAKED FLOWERS 2022 -Sakura-World Heritage Nijo Castle" was held during the cherry blossom season, and "NAKED FLOWERS 2022 Autumn World Heritage Nijo Castle" was held during the autumn foliage season, and a projection mapping show and light-up event were held. ◆Nijo Castle◆ 【Address】〒604-8301 541 Nijojo-jocho, Nijo-dori Horikawa Nishi-iru, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto 【Access】 By train from Kyoto Station Take the JR Sanin Main Line and get off at Nijo Station and walk a short distance Get off at Nijo Ekimae on the Tozai Municipal Subway Line and walk a short distance By bus from Kyoto Station Take city bus No. 9 and 50 to Kyoto Station ⇒ get off at Nijojo-jo-mae and walk a short distance

★ The 15th COOL JAPAN VIDEOS Photo Contest is currently being ★ held under the theme of "Recommended Japanese Sightseeing Spots in 2023" We're looking forward to seeing everyone's wonderful submissions! This time, we will introduce the post of "Nuko ( ́ー')"! The gradation of the sunset is one of the superb views.

In addition to camping sites, you can also enjoy barbecues, bicycle rentals, and rental canoes. ◆Takkobu Auto Campsite◆ 【Address】 〒088-2141 Hokkaido Kushiro DistrictKushiro Town Tatsukotake 65-2 【Phone number】0154-40-4448 Please check the official website for details.

If you go through the Senbon torii gate of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, you will find the Okusha Fushimi Inari Taisha Okusha Shrine Worship Hall. From there, you will start to proceed to Mt. Inari, past the pine trees that have risen roots, and if you continue for a while, you will find the Kumataka Shrine in front of the middle of Mt. Inari. I bought a candle at the bamboo shop just across the street and made a request to Kumataka Shrine. If you clap twice in front of the new pond in front of the company, the sound will echo from the pond. By the speed at which you can hear the sound, you can tell when your wish will come true. By the way, it seems that if you go in the direction where the sound came, your wish will come true. Kumataka Okami is said to be the god of competition, and it seems that there is a benefit to win the game, so why not come here when you have an important game?

This photo was taken when I was camping in a Takkobu Auto Campsite in Hokkaido Kushiro DistrictKushiro Town. Kushiro is a city with beautiful sunsets that is counted as one of the three best sunsets in the world. I took a picture of my son looking up at the sunset created by such a sunset.

It is the most popular shrine for Otaru, "The shrine in Otaru is Sumiyoshi Shrine". The god of worship is The three gods of Sumiyoshi (Shikotsutsu Ojin, Nakatsutsu Otojin, and Omotsutsu Otojin), who appeared at the time of the exorcism of Inaki, and Empress Jingong (Princess Jingong) are enshrined. It is especially best around the time of autumn ginkgo. The small black dot you can see in the sky below the torii gate is a tombi that happened to pass by.

Thursday, January 5, 2023 Early morning Thanks for watching. I have photographs of the days of the thicket in the area where I was born and raised. The moment when the upper part of the tree is dyed in the morning sun The landscape divided into light and shadow is divided into morning and pre-dawn It also seems to represent a boundary between them. Please enjoy the mysterious world view like a painting.

Thursday, December 22, 2022 Early morning Thanks for watching. I have photographs of the days of the thicket in the area where I was born and raised.

This time, we will introduce a post by "hide.01.07"! The power of the stranded rope is impressive. Izumo Taisha Shrine is also popular as a sacred place for matchmaking. One of the highlights is the stone statue of a rabbit named after the myth of the 66 rabbits in the precincts. With a length of about 13 meters and a weight of 5.2 tons, the Kagura-den is Japan one of the largest strands. ◆Izumo Taisha Shrine◆ 【Address】〒699-0701 Shimane Prefecture, Izumo City, Taisha Town, Kitsuki Higashi 195 【Phone number】0853-53-3100 【Access】 Airport shuttle bus ●Izumo Airport←→ JR Matsue Station, JR Izumoshi Station about 30 minutes ●Izumo Airport→ Izumo Taisha Shrine about 45 minutes Please check the official website for details.

Lake Toya was formed more than 110,000 years ago when water accumulated in a hole blown away by a volcano, and the top of the volcano is Nakajima that protrudes from the lake. Lakes are the energy of water, and water represents emotions, so it works to purify the mind. Since there is a volcano in it, it is a power spot that has fire in the water. Fire also purifies. This has a behavioral effect. Lake Toya, especially Nakajima, is a place of fire and water, purification and power of mind and body. I think this Nakajima, which is one of the best three in Hokkaido, will be crossed by Lake Toya steamship. From now on, we will ride the Espoir, which looks like a fairytale castle. It departs (*^_^* twice an hour of 00 minutes and 30 minutes.) It is 1500 yen for adults. On the boat, seagulls come in droves. The seagull is a symbol of freedom (Jonathan), so it's exciting. Although it is often mistaken for seagulls and sea cats. Both sea gulls and seagulls have yellow beaks, but sea gulls have red tips, and seagulls have pink legs, but sea gulls seem to have black legs. It was almost a seagull. The first thing you can see when you go over the lake is Benten Island and Kannon Island. These two islands are twin islands connected by a sandbar. Kannon Island is an island with a flat feeling. Here, "Nakajima Benzaiten" is enshrined. It has a reputation for increasing your fortune considerably. The triangle is Kannon Island. It is said that Enku carved a Buddha image on the island, and it is said that the "Guanyin Bodhisattva Statue" was enshrined on this island. (Kannon-sama is kept at Usu Zenkoji Temple, and a replica of it is dedicated in the hall of the island.) Usu Zenkoji Temple and Treasure Museum It is also a famous temple for cherry blossoms. You can see Showa Shinzan beyond the sandbank, so please pay attention. From Bentenjima, you can feel the vibration of the beautiful goddess and want to just look at it. You can't go ashore without chartering a boat, but I'd love to go there someday. There is a three-storied pagoda floating in the lake on the side, and it was also a really beautiful wave. It is said that the white dragon god, the guardian god of Lake Toya, is enshrined here. I felt like an old-fashioned goddess in a whitish costume, so maybe Benten-sama? I thought, but since it is a white dragon god, I am convinced. In addition to these two islands, Nakajima consists of four islands: Oshima, where pleasure boats land, and Manjujima, also known as Snake Island, which has many small snakes and cannot land. The steamer will land on Oshima. A lava dome formed by a volcanic eruption in the Toya Caldera about 50,000 years ago appeared on the surface of the water, and it has been confirmed that there are 11 volcanic bodies in the vicinity, including one at the bottom of the lake. The largest island, Oshima, has a circumference of 9.6 km, and the highest point, Tonoshi Kenupuri, is 455 m above sea level and is covered entirely by broad-leaved forest. (from Wikipedia) By the way, the reason why Nakajima has a peak (mountain) is because it erupted in the same place many times, which is rare. By the way, there are actually five islands, one of which is submerged in the lake and is said to be a mecca for diving. Standing on a sunken island even though it is a lake, it is as if you can feel as if you have been made from the lake. It's romantic. When you go to Oshima, there are shrines and coffee shops. You can enter through the gate and go around the island in about 3 hours. The great plains along the way are the best power spots. I'll introduce it in another post later.

Spring in Kyoto

#Nitori Stained Glass Museum The president of Nitori actually went to England many times, transported the stained glass of churches that were being demolished due to the decrease in believers, etc., to Japan and exhibited them in Otaru. No matter how many times you visit, you will fall in love with its beauty. My family is a Buddhist and I just want to kneel. Jesus and the angels are lovely, but I like the lamb who looks up at Jesus Christ (laughs). I would like to see it in a real church in Europe.

#It is read as Kijima Zaki Amaterasu Soul Shrine (Konoshima ni masu Amaterumi Tamajinja). Because there is a "sericulture shrine" that worships silkworms in the precincts, it is also called #silkworm shrine. The movie village is located in Uzumasa, which is said to be an area where the power of the migrant #Qin clan was great. Since it was the base where the chief of the Qin clan lived, it became an Ultra C reading of thick and the rest of the Qin clan's ego, written as Uzumasa. Sericulture is one of the things that Mr. Hata brought to Japan. That's why there is a shrine dedicated to silkworms. Originally #Kijima Shrine (Konoshimajinja)." In the "Succession Japan Kijima" it is written as "Kijima God". It is recorded that "(Fushimi) Inari, (Ishimizu) Yawata and Kijima are not visited by people," and that people were constantly visiting. There was also a pond of fresh water here. Currently, it is said that he has moved to the forest of Shimogamo Shrine. Of particular note is the three torii gates stacked #Three Pillar Torii In the historical note in the company office, "This is said to be a remnant of the fact that Jingkyo (Netrian Christianity) came to Japan and was associated with the Qin clan." There is. There is a theory that Buddhism and Christianity were newly introduced to the Japan during this period, and there was a dispute as to which central government should adopt. Mr. Qin seems to have been promoting Christianity. Prince Shotoku, who was supported by Qin Hesheng, the chief of the Qin clan, was born in a stable, and there is an episode that is like Christ. Because there are many mysteries, it is a deep shrine where you can create delusions.
