  • The squirrels are super cute, but honestly, the smell is a bit much...
    If you're planning to visit, it's probably best to come in autumn or winter.

    A must-see spot in Nagano.
    The black and white castle looks stunning against the backdrop of the Northern Alps.
    I was in a bit of a rush this time, so next time I definitely want to stay overnight in Matsumoto and take my time exploring.

  • Even though Jiyu Gakuen Myonichikan isn't that big overall, you can easily spend an entire afternoon here without even noticing.

    I happened to catch the Darkness Festival, and it was packed with people and super lively. There were so many food stalls I lost count!
    It was my first time in Fuchu City and I had a really good impression.
    Highly recommend!

    I visited on a Saturday and it was super lively. Honestly, it’s just as busy as Shibuya’s main shopping street.
    The restaurants here feel especially cheap and totally worth it! 🉐

    I didn't realize there was still quite a walk after climbing up here...

    Do they have hot spring facilities too? I definitely want to try it next time~

    I finally had the chance to visit Izumo Taisha, one of the most iconic shrines in Japan. Its status is as high as Ise Jingu in Mie. The atmosphere inside is solemn and dignified, and the way you pray here is different—two bows, four claps, and one bow. The giant shimenawa rope in the Kaguraden, weighing five tons, is another highlight, and the Japanese flag in the front yard looks grand and beautiful. The dinner was also a big highlight—delicious food and drinks, plus traditional Japanese performances, made for an amazing experience! 👍
