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 Norihiro Ikuma's post "The Asahi of Biei". The gradation sky and the snowy scenery illuminated by the morning sun are superb. Biei Town, located in Kamikawa District, Hokkaido, is a town with beautiful nature. In 2005, he founded and joined the "Most Beautiful Villages in the Japan" coalition, which aims to pass on the wonderful scenery and culture to future generations. In 2010, we officially joined the World Union in recognition of our activities in Japan and are developing various activities. Biei Town, where you can enjoy the superb scenery of the four seasons, is full of photo spots and sightseeing spots. "Shin-Ei no Oka Observatory Park" is an observation park where you can overlook nature 360 degrees, including the Tokachi mountain range. Recommended for shooting the morning sun and sunset. "Shirogane Blue Pond" is a popular tourist spot with a fantastic view of cobalt blue. In winter, it is lit up in white silver, and when the snow melts, it turns green-blue. You can enjoy different landscapes depending on the weather and season. Biei Shrine, one of the three major power spots in Hokkaido, is also popular for its benefits of fulfilling love. There are heart decorations everywhere on the site, and it is said that finding a hidden heart will improve your luck in love. "Biei Shirogane Onsen" is a hot spring that represents Biei Town. It is effective for neuralgia and muscle pain, and day trip bathing is also possible. ◆Biei Town◆ 【Address】〒071-0208 1-2-14 Honmachi, Biei-cho, Kamikawa-gun, Hokkaido 【Access】 From Asahikawa About 26 km on National Route 237, about 40 minutes From Furano About 34 km on National Route 237, about 40 minutes From Sapporo From Sapporo IC to Asahikawa Takasu IC by Hokkaido Expressway, take National Route 48 - National Route 12, National Route 237 for about 166 km about 2 hours 30 minutes From Furano Station About 36 minutes by local train to Biei Station

Sunrise in Biei

The weather forecast was bad, so I was prepared for it, but I could see a little sunny, so I used a slow shutter.

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 "Nguyen Vu" post "Night view of Byodo-in Phoenix Hall". The contrast between light and shadow of the Byodo-in Phoenix Hall is impressive. Byodoin Phoenix Hall, located in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, is one of the World Heritage Sites of Ancient Kyoto. It is also famous for being depicted on a Japan 10-yen coin. The history of Byodo-in Temple dates back to the first year of Tenki (1053). It was built by Sekihaku Fujiwara Yorimichi at the time, and the following year the Phoenix Hall was built as the Amida Hall, a Buddhist temple with Amida Buddha as its main deity. The name Phoenix Hall comes from the fact that when viewed from the front, it looks like a bird with outstretched wings, and a golden phoenix is attached to the roof. The biggest feature of Phoenix Hall is that it is built in a style that looks as if it is floating in a pond (Aji Pond). On clear days, the superb view of the phoenix hall reflected in the pond is also popular as a photo spot. For shooting time, it is recommended to take a morning or sunset back when the light is normal. The grounds are full of attractions, such as the garden designated as a national historic site and place of scenic beauty, and the Brahma bell. ◆Byodo-in Phoenix Hall◆ 【Address】〒611-0021 116 Uji Renka, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture 【Access】 JR Nara Line About 10 minutes on foot from Uji Station Keihan Uji Line About 10 minutes walk from Uji Station 【Opening Hours】8:30~17:30(Reception closes at 17:15) 【Phoenix Hall Interior】9:30~16:30 (50 people each time) Please check the official website for details.

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 Menma's post "Kanazawa Station's specialty "Komon". The unique design of the gate is a powerful photo. Kanazawa Station, located in Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture in the Koshinetsu region, is a representative station of Kanazawa City, which was selected as one of the "14 most beautiful stations in the world" by an American travel magazine. The Tsuzumimon and Hospitality Dome in front of the station were completed in March 2005 as part of the city's redevelopment. The 13.7-meter-high drum gate is inspired by the drums of Noh, a traditional performing art of Kanazawa. The concept of the Hospitality Dome is "the spirit of hospitality that offers an umbrella to people who get off the station" in Kanazawa, where there is a lot of rain and snow. Both were designed by architect Ryuzo Shirae. Illuminated from sunset to 0:00, Drum Gate is also a popular photo spot. At the nearby shopping mall, you can buy souvenirs and traditional crafts, and you can also enjoy ramen, which is also a Kanazawa gourmet. For accommodation, we recommend hotels near the east exit of Kanazawa Station, and have good access to Kenrokuen Garden, which is famous for its Japan garden. ◆Kanazawa Station◆ 【Address】〒920-8580 Ishikawa Prefecture, Kanazawa-shi, Kinoshinbocho 1-1 【Access】 railway Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka: about 2 hours and 30 minutes

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 "Teppy's post "Okuoikojo Station" with a superb view in the hinterland of Shizuoka. The station built as if floating on the lake and the magnificent nature are a spectacular view. Okuōikojo Station (奥大井湖上駅, Okuōikojo-eki) is a station on the Ōigawa Railway Ikawa Line in Kawanehoncho, Haibara-gun, Shizuoka Prefecture, Tokai region, which won the "COOL JAPAN AWARD 2019". It was built on a peninsula-like site that came out on the left bank during the construction of the Nagashima Dam. The scenery that seems to be floating on the lake has become a hot topic on SNS. To get to the viewpoint with a superb view of the station and nature, it is about an 18-minute walk from the parking lot of Okuoikojo Station. It is also recommended to actually enter the station and tour the platform. In addition, the iron bridge "Okuoi Rainbow Bridge" of the Minami Alps Aputo Line (Ikawa Line) that spans both sides of the peninsula where the station is located can be crossed on foot. The Ōigawa Railway is also famous for the popular anime "Thomas the Tank Engine". You can also take the Toby the Tank Engine and the Bertie bus. There are also plans for day tours and a little longer to enjoy with Thomas Land. From December ~ January 2022, Thomas Fair will be held at two locations, "Shin-Kanaya Main Venue" and "Senzu Satellite Venue". It is full of highlights such as driving a mini SL and an exhibition of Thomas' nakama. In addition, a gift plan will be held for 3 days only from December 23 (Fri) ~ 25 (Sun), 2022. Children under elementary school age who ride the Thomas the Tank Engine during the period will receive Christmas presents. Please check the official website for details. ◆Access ◆ Okuoikojo Station 【Train】 Take the Minami Alps Aputo Line (Ikawa Line) to the 10th station from Senzu Station (ride time: about 1 hour 5 minutes) Oigawa Railway 【Train】 Get off at JR Tokaido Line "Kanaya Station", move the platform, and go to the Oigawa Railway platform 【Car】 From Shin-Tomei "Shimada Kanaya IC", take National Route 473 toward Kanaya City (South) for about 10 minutes.
