I visited Kiyomizu-dera Temple in person this April. Although it wasn't during the blooming season, so I couldn't see the beautiful sight of flowers in full bloom, these photos still show how vibrant it is. You can also tell from the photos that its influence and fame are beyond comparison with ordinary temples. When looking up at it from below, you can see that it was built by interlocking pieces of wood, unlike modern buildings reinforced with steel and concrete. It shows the craftsmanship and artistry of the Japanese artisans who built it. I’ll definitely visit again if I have the chance, and I invite everyone to come admire this traditional Japanese temple architecture!!

Naha Kokusai-dori Shopping Street
Naha City Kokusai-dori Shopping Street is located in the center of Naha City and is the main street representing Okinawa. It is the largest downtown area in Naha City and is famous as the center of commerce and entertainment. It is known as "Kokusai-dori (International street)," based on the concept of "a people-friendly town and a town that is fun to walk through.
When you come to Kokusai-dori in Okinawa, you're probably in for a crazy shopping spree. Japan has a huge selection of cosmetics, medicines, candy, and all kinds of unusual little items, so it's easy to shop till you drop and lose track of time as you browse. There's food, drinks, and shopping here, so spending an entire day here is no problem at all~

Dotonbori
Crab, octopus, cow, crane….these are just a few of the oversized 3D signboards that make up the look and feel of the bustling Dotonbori Area. Its packed with a number of eateries along the northern Dotonbori River and main street along its southern side.
I often heard STAY WITH ME on Douyin, a song that represents Japan's economic boom. On 4/6, I finally had the chance to visit this dazzling, extravagant place in person. The bright lights were still shining at night, and while I was on the sightseeing boat, the song in my heart was playing. The moment we passed under the bridge, it felt as if I had entered a new world. How I wished the night would never end.

Kouri Beach
Located on Kouri Island, just across the Kouri Ohashi Bridge from Yagaji Island in Nago City, this beach features pristine white sand stretching on either side of the bridge, offering a scenic view of Kouri Ohashi Bridge itself.
This beach is located on Kouri Island. As soon as I crossed the bridge, the endless ocean and beach came into view. Being here made me feel as though I had let go of all the stress from the office. Looking at the deep blue coast and vast sky, I felt as if I had been healed. I hope you’ll like it too.
