The park is pretty big, so you need to take your time exploring. If the weather's nice, you can get a great view of all of Sendai.

The river is really wide. While listening to the boatman sing, you can enjoy the autumn leaves on the mountains. Before you know it, the boat arrives at the shore and the ride is over.

There's a lot of trash on the mountain, probably left by tourists. It's a good thing it's only open for two months a year—if it were open all year, they might as well call it 'Trash Mountain.'

I once stayed overnight in Shirakawa-go through the local tourism association. Dinner was local cuisine, and the owner even shared some of his prized sake with us. The owner's daughter played an instrument, and his wife performed a traditional dance. It was such an unforgettable experience.

It takes about 50 minutes to walk uphill from the station to Tateishi Park at the top. The scenery along the way is really beautiful. It's the best spot to see the whole view of Lake Suwa, and if the weather's good, you can even spot Mt. Fuji.

Walking from Taisho Pond to Kappa Bridge, the scenery is just so poetic. The Japanese really value nature and the environment—everything feels so peaceful and beautiful.
