Zao Fox Village
A fox paradise in the mountains of Shiroishi City. More than 100 foxes of seven species, including north foxes , cross foxes , and arctic foxe s, are kept here. Visitors can feed and photograph the free-range foxes outdoors, and even hold a fox cub in their arms.
As soon as you walk in, you see a bunch of foxes running all over the place. Seriously way too cute.
Ginzan Onsen
This hot spring resort was developed along with the Nobesawa Silver Mine which prospered in the Edo Period. After the mine was closed, it was turned into a therapeutic onsen resort until a flood destroyed it in 1913. By early Showa Period, local businesses have helped restore the village close to the current landscape with western-style wooden multi-story buildings on either side of Ginzan River.
Ginzan Onsen in winter is insanely gorgeous. Snow falling over the old street and those wooden ryokan—it's like a Japanese drama playing out in real life.
The University of Tokyo Akamon
Akamon is a red gate located at the University of Tokyo’s Hongo Campus. Although there are historical structures everywhere inside this campus, Akamon is known as a symbol of the University.
It's the best university in Japan, and the gate itself has a lot of historical significance.
