Kegon Falls

A Majestic Waterfall Spilling Down a 97-Meter-Tall Cliff.

Riding the ropeway slowly up the mountain, we saw the mountainsides covered in red, yellow, and green maple leaves along the way, as if the entire mountain had taken on the colors of fall.

In the distance, Kegon Falls flowed all the way down the tall cliff. The white stream stood out against the valley, looking from afar like a long, slender white waterfall hanging on the cliffside.

As the ropeway continued, the waterfall came into view from different angles, set against mountains covered in red maple leaves. The scenery was truly beautiful. It was a rare chance to enjoy this kind of mountain and forest scenery from a ropeway, and I couldn't take my eyes off it the entire way.

Arakurayama Sengen Park is famous as a place to view the splendid scenery of the magnificent Mount Fuji with a pagoda dedicated to those who died in battle. Inside the park grounds, about 650 Sakura trees have been planted. In the spring, the picturesque Japanese scenery of cherry blossoms, the pagoda, and Mount Fuji can be seen.

After getting off at Shimoyoshida Station, it’s just a short walk to the foot of Arakurayama Sengen Park. I originally thought it would be an easy stroll, but once I started climbing, I realized that the real challenge here wasn’t the mountain trail, but the seemingly endless flights of stairs.

As I made my way up, there were so many stairs that I couldn’t help looking back to see how much farther I had to go. But at the top, you can see the famous, captivating view of Mount Fuji and the five-story pagoda together.

One thing to keep in mind: if you’re visiting Arakurayama Sengen Park, wear comfortable walking shoes and be mentally prepared to climb a lot of stairs 😆

When I visited Shibuya Hikarie, I made a point of going upstairs to enjoy the free nighttime view. Looking down at the streets of Shibuya from above, the bustling Shibuya Scramble Crossing is what catches your eye the most. Crowds of people and streams of traffic crisscross as the lights from the surrounding buildings illuminate the entire city, creating a lively atmosphere that is uniquely Tokyo.

Watching pedestrians cross the intersection from every direction as the signals change, the dense crowds create an interesting scene. Shibuya is already bustling during the day, but looking down from above at night, you can feel the city's energy even more.

You can enjoy Shibuya's night view for free and take in the iconic crossing all at once, making this a worthwhile stop when visiting Shibuya.
Chicken Ramen Donburi

Chicken Ramen, the once-bagged variety now comes in a cup. It features a light and clean flavor derived from all-original chicken stock and roasted soy sauce. The taste is rich and smooth, featuring fluffy heaps of eggs as its main topping.

Cook a bowl of the original Chicken Ramen and add some cabbage and an egg—it’s simple and just right. The aroma of the chicken broth goes well with the light sweetness of the vegetables, and it still has that familiar taste. I’ve been eating it since I was little, and even after all these years, an occasional bowl still hits the spot. That’s how good food is—it doesn’t need many changes. The classic flavor is always there.
