Ikeda Wine Castle
I visited Ikeda Wine Castle!!
The tour route and corridor museum featured exhibits on wine production and grape cultivation, which were very informative.
In the first-floor shopping area, it seems some products are sold only at the Wine Castle.👀
On sunny days, I also recommend visiting the rooftop observation terrace.

Shirakaba Namiki
The greenery was deeper than when I visited in May♪
You can even spot sunflowers through the birch trees, which gives the place a summery feel!
The tree-lined road stretches about 1.3 km and offered a truly beautiful view♬

Otofuke Shrine
I visited Otofuke Shrine on a sunny day!
The enshrined deity at Otofuke Shrine is Amaterasu Omikami, the same deity worshiped at the Ise Grand Shrine. As a guiding and leading deity, Amaterasu is said to grant blessings for overcoming difficulties, pioneering progress, good fortune and prosperity, and success in new ventures!
This spot is also known for possible encounters with Ezo squirrels, red foxes, and owls♪
Be sure to pay a visit and offer your prayers ✨

Autumn salmon are making their upstream run!
You can watch them up close at Totoro-do.👀
Salmon are born in rivers, grow in the sea, and eventually return upstream to their natal rivers.
The fry that hatch from eggs in the river head to the sea in spring with the snowmelt, spend summers in the Bering Sea, and winter in the Gulf of Alaska.
About four years later, the mature salmon migrate southward from the Bering Sea along the Kuril Islands and, around September through November, return to the rivers where they were born to spawn.

Address: 127 Aikawa, Makubetsu, Nakagawa District, Hokkaido

This is a sunflower field in Otofuke.
It stands out against the blue sky.
Bees were busily collecting nectar and carrying lots of pollen.

Kominka cafe 'cafe jorro'
I enjoyed pancakes and cold-brew iced coffee.
Every menu item is tempting, from curry and cakes made mainly with local ingredients to dishes prepared without chemical seasonings.
They use coffee beans from Morihiko in Sapporo, and both the pancakes and the coffee were absolutely delicious.
The shop's atmosphere and the food were both superb.✨
