三重県桑名市 多度大社

厳島神社 五重塔 / 広島
Itsukushima Shrine Five-story Pagoda / Hiroshima

海の中にある鳥居で有名な厳島神社の少し奥まったところにある五重塔。高い場所にあるので遠くからでも眺めることが出来ますが、近くで見るとその迫力に息を飲んでしまいます。その隣にある千畳閣も見所です。

The five-story pagoda is located in a slightly secluded part of Itsukushima Shrine, famous for its torii gateway in the sea. It can be viewed from a distance due to its elevated location, but when seen up close, the power of the pagoda will take your breath away. Next to the five-story pagoda is the Senjo-kaku, which is also a must-see.

Went to Fukushima over the Golden Week holiday.

On our first day we took a bus to Ouchi-Juku and had a great time looking at all the buildings and different shops. The negi soba (soba with a large leek) is famous there so my girlfriend ended up ordering that. She said it was a bit difficult to eat, but fun and tasted great. We also ended up trying a variety of different snacks in the area. The Age-Manju (deep fried manju) was really tasty and we actually ended up getting again later. I was able to take a photo from the famous photo spot at Ouchi-Juku as well (photo #4). I only have an iPhone camera, so the quality isn't the best, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

On the way back from Ouchi-Juku we returned via Yunokami Onsen Station and so we got to use the footbath that was attached to the station. It was a really great way to rest up after walking for so long.
The station itself was also really photogenic, so I snapped a couple photos from the platform and between the railroad tracks.

The hotel we were staying at for the night was in Aizu-Wakamatsu and on the way we found a nice little shop with a large akabeko cow outside and the staff was kind enough to take a photo of us with it.

For dinner, we went to a place called Sassa (左雨) and had a really great time. We ended up talking to the owners for a bit and they were super nice. It was also the best tonkatsu I've eaten in my entire life. It was cooked tp perfection, and the dressing that came with the salad and cabbage matched perfectly with it. We probably ended up eating way too many fried foods but it was all really tasty.

The next day we visited Tsuruga Castle.
The castle was quite cool, but it was a bit more crowded than Ouchi-Juku. Considering it was Golden Week, it wasn't much of a surprise.

Either way we had a great time. We started off going for a boat ride around the moat (I got my daily exercise in, as I was rowing the whole time lol). After that we went up into the castle and were able to see a view of the city from the top which was pretty cool. There were also live performances going on in the field in front of the castle which were fun to watch.

At that point it was about lunch time so we went over to the row of food stalls (photo #16) and grabbed a bite to eat. There were shops selling all sorts of goods as well, so we spent some time window shopping. After Tsuruga Castle, we went to Oyakuen Garden (御薬園). We ended up sharing a green tea by the pond and relaxing for a bit which was nice.

There were a lot of koi inside the pond and a variety of birds flying around as well, so the atmosphere was very relaxing. Photo #20 is supposedly the best view in the garden (it was written on a sign) so I snapped a photo of it. The photo doesn't do it justice, but it was a really incredible view.

All in all, we had a really amazing time in Fukushima, but we definitely would like to visit again, as there's a lot we didn't get to do still. I really wanted to try an akabeko workshop but we didn't get the chance, which was a bit disappointing, but we still had a lot of fun, so I can't complain.

I definitely recommend visiting Aizu-Wakamatsu if you have the chance!

東北地方唯一の国営公園である「国営みちのく杜の湖畔公園」
春には菜の花やチューリップなど色彩豊かな花々が見頃を迎え、東北6県を代表する歴史的な古民家も見ることができます。

先日(4月中旬頃)、神戸の六甲山地で撮影した乙女椿(おとめつばき)の花です。

この六甲山地は瀬戸内海国立公園に指定され、明治時代から保養、避暑の適地とされてきました。
山地のあちこちには山荘や保養所が建てられ、スイスの山岳牧場をイメージした六甲牧場や枕草子(まくらのそうし)の三名泉に数えられた有馬温泉などの観光スポットがあります。

神戸居留地の外国人たちによって開かれた山には、カスケードバレイ(たくさんの小さな滝の谷)やトゥエンティクロス(20の沢渡り山道)などのカタカナ名が多く残され、外国人の方々が開山していった歴史が偲ばれます。

さて、今回の乙女椿は和名の場所、まむし谷のかわうそ池で撮影したものです。
昨年にこちらで紹介させて頂いた猩々(しょうじょう)池など、江戸時代からの名前も多く残る六甲山地、まむし谷はともかくとして、かわうそ池は……
昔はかわうそがたくさん生息していた池なのではないかと、私は今でもじっと気配をうかがってみたりしています。

椿の開花時期はもう終わりをむかえていますが、今はツツジの花がドライブウェイのあちこちで鮮やかに彩っています。
動物も植物も自然豊かな六甲山、ハイキングなどいかがでしょうか?

仙台藩白老元陣屋資料館で第十一回目刀剣展が4月22日（土）～5月7日（日）まで開催されます。

特別貴重刀剣も観れます。

春の新緑から射す朝日……神戸の六甲山は衣替えを済ませました!!

写真はこの4月の中旬に表六甲ドライブウェイの尾根付近で撮影した朝の光景です。
ロードバイクでヒルクライムしましたが、ほどよく汗ばむ感じの気持ちのいいサイクリングでした(ゆるゆると登っています)。

この六甲山は明治時代に居留地の外国人によってレジャーの山として開かれ、初めて山荘を建てたアーサー・ヘルケス・グルーム氏は「六甲山の開祖」と呼ばれています。
その最初の山荘は、写真のドライブウェイを尾根まで登って行った先の三国池という所に建てられたそう。そこから外国人や日本人も次々と山荘を建て、一つの村を形成したそうです。
今は当時の山荘は残っていないようですが、周辺では今も各企業の保養所等がたくさん見られます。
実際にロードバイクで登っていても、キツネやアライグマ、キツツキやリス、それにモグラや猿にも出会ったりして、街中とは別世界の自然の中に来た事を実感出来ますよ。
この春、心の静養に森林浴はいかがでしょうか?

過去には煉瓦工場が多くありましたが、その名残さえ少なくなりました。

東川町桜岡にあった「吉村煉瓦工場の煙突」がポツンと姿を現します。冬から初春にかけて藪・茂みが消えるので全貌が見えます。
亀裂が入っているので何時かはこの雄姿も観れなくなるのかな？

志度寺的遍路者。國境開放之後，走遍路的人也慢慢變多了。

Went on a trip to Sendai last weekend and had an awesome time. We were only there for 2 days and 1 night, but we managed to do everything we wanted to.

On the first day we arrived at Sendai Station (the beautiful stained glass in photo #1) and had lunch, after which we headed over to our hotel, dropped off our bags, and then headed off to do some sightseeing.

Our first stop was Funaoka Castle Park. The cherry blossoms were really nice and there was a cherry blossom festival or something like that taking place and there were some food stalls as wells, so we picked up some snacks and relaxed for a bit. We were able to see the large Kannon statue from a distance but opted not to go all the way to the top because we had some other stuff planned.

After Funaoka Castle Park we made our way towards Shiroishi Castle.
On the way to the castle from Funaoka Castle Park there’s the famous Hitome Senbon-Zakura, which we were able to enjoy for the entire walk to the castle. The cherry blossoms along the river were quite the treat.

During our walk to the castle, we came across another cherry blossom festival with more food stalls. We had a couple more snacks and enjoyed the views before heading towards the station to get to Shiroishi Castle.

As we were walking to the castle I found some cool art on some shop shutters.
The path leading up to the castle was dotted with lanterns and was really pretty, especially as it was nearing sunset.

We arrived at the castle with just a bit of sunlight left and we were just lucky enough to take some nice photos.
After the castle, we had some dinner at a nice Izakaya and headed back to Sendai Station where our hotel was.

The first day was all about seeing the beautiful views of cherry blossoms, but the second day we decided to enjoy the history and culture of the area.

We started off by visiting Zuihoden, the mausoleum for Date Masamune. On the approach to the complex, we saw some interesting buildings where we stopped to take pictures and check out the architecture.

The row of trees lining the steps to Zuihoden reminded me of the famous row of trees at Togakushi Shrine in Nagano.

There were a lot of different structures, and learning about the history and what they were all built for was really interesting.
Unfortunately I have too many photos and can’t post them all here.

After we finished up at Zuihoden, which took a while because I wanted to read every single sign that we came across, we headed over to Sendai Castle (Aoba Castle).
Again, I have too many photos to post, so I’ll just leave it to the famous statue of Date Masamune. The view from the top of the castle was quite nice and the other structures around the castle grounds were really interesting to learn about as well.

After the castle, we were running out of time, and so we decided to start making our way back to Sendai Station. We ended up getting off a few stations early because my girlfriend had read that there was an event at Nishi Park.

I can’t post all of the photos, but it was a really big cherry blossom festival with food stalls, etc.

I highly recommend visiting Sendai during spring, as it’s definitely worth the trip. Most of the places we visited were not crowded at all, and we had an awesome trip.

Great place to visit.

四國遍路的屋島寺。今年是弘法大師1250歲冥誕。歡迎大家一起來走遍路，與大師兩人同行。

By rules, I have to post pictures individually for the contest. But in real life, I would arrange all the Tower photos into one post. It was a challenge to photograph the Tokyo Tower from different locations in just one day, but it was the highlight of my trip. If you are prepared, I 180% would recommend this challenge.

Great time and great weather during my visit. Plan for a full day if you enjoy photographing architecture, historic sites, and traditional cultures. We drove, and I highly recommend it. Matsumoto is not too far! They also have the best curry I had in japan!
