Standing at an intersection in the heart of Nagoya’s Sakae shopping district, with the warm winter sunlight shining on the crosswalk, I looked up at the super eye-catching giant Ferris wheel on the left. Its colorful rotating gondolas, paired with the yellow Don Quijote penguin sign on the right, gave the entire neighborhood a full-on stylish urban vibe.

After crossing the street with the crowd, I casually wandered into the mall and happened to catch a lively mini LIVE by an underground idol group on the atrium stage. Looking down from the glass railing on the second floor, I saw the girls singing and dancing with all their energy while the fans below waved their light sticks in perfect unison. The air was filled with a passionate enthusiasm for the music and cheering them on.

There was something so immersive about walking through the busiest streets of Nagoya—taking pictures of the landmark Ferris wheel one moment, then being drawn into a powerful local subculture scene the next—that I couldn’t help swaying along to the rhythm.

I highly recommend visiting Sunshine Sakae in person. Whether you’re capturing the classic street view of the Ferris wheel or experiencing an electrifying underground idol performance inside the mall, it will definitely leave you with a uniquely energetic memory of your trip!

The moment I looked down from the observation deck, the layers of snow-white mountains in the distance and the clear azure sky came together to create an absolutely magnificent view. The gassho-style wooden houses in the village, each covered in thick snow, were arranged like little cabins from a fairy tale.

Walking along the village paths through the deep snow, my boots made a solid “crunch” with every step. The air was crisp, dry, and fresh, while sunlight sparkled on the rooftops and icicles. The feeling of actually stepping into this secluded place, carefully sculpted by nature and time, was so deeply moving that words simply cannot describe it.

On the streets of Hida Takayama Old Town, the winter sunlight shines on the clean roads, and the air feels chilly yet refreshing. Traditional wooden houses full of Edo-period charm and a prominent red “Hida Takayama” sign greet you as you arrive.

Strolling at an easy pace between the quaint old streets, you can catch the faint aroma of freshly grilled Hida beef skewers and soy sauce rice crackers in the air, making you want to stop and look inside every shop.

Standing under the covered walkway by the street and gazing into the distance, I could see snow still covering the mountaintops beneath a brilliantly blue sky. The pace of strolling through the entire old town felt incredibly comfortable.

Actually walking through such a well-preserved traditional district and experiencing the Hida region’s uniquely slow pace of life makes you reluctant to reach the end too quickly.

I highly recommend planning a walk through Hida Takayama Old Town and using your own two feet to discover the locally handcrafted items hidden inside the old houses, adding the most authentic chapter of Japanese charm to your journey!

When I reached the huge stone torii gate of Haritsuna Shrine, I looked up at the gold-lettered plaque and the shrine grounds surrounded by lush green trees. Gentle breezes drifted by, filling the air with a sacred and tranquil atmosphere.

When I reached the entrance of Inuyama Castle, a National Treasure, the wind carried the dry chill of winter. Looking up at this famous wooden castle, home to the oldest surviving castle keep in Japan, its weathered wood grain and solid stone walls truly conveyed the weight of history.

Holding the ticket I had just bought, I took a commemorative photo in front of the old castle, then climbed the wooden stairs step by step. The solid sound of wood beneath my feet made me feel as though I had stepped back into the Sengoku period.

After some effort, I reached the wooden veranda on the top floor of the castle keep. Leaning against the low railing and looking out, I saw an endless cityscape beneath the gray-white sky and the Kiso River flowing below the castle. Feeling the breeze brush against my face was truly breathtaking.

Actually standing inside this centuries-old castle and seeing with my own eyes the scenery once viewed by Sengoku-era warriors created such a vivid sense of being there that I couldn't bring myself to leave.
