I once tried LeTAO’s Original Double Fromage cheesecake in Taiwan when a friend brought one back especially from Japan. I fell in love at first bite with its light, smooth texture and the fact that it wasn’t overly sweet at all. It melted in my mouth like ice cream and left a lasting impression of this Hokkaido dessert brand.

Later, when I traveled to Japan, I discovered that it was available at many airports. If you have the chance, I really recommend packing one in an insulated bag and carrying it back to Taiwan yourself—it tastes just as delicious. What’s even more exciting is that you can try different limited-edition flavors depending on the season. This time, I was lucky enough to get the mango flavor, and the biggest surprise was the thin layer of mochi inside the cake. It added even more layers of texture, making every bite memorable. This is a dessert I’ll definitely want to buy again whenever I visit Japan.

Nestled at the foot of majestic Mount Fuji, Fuji Motosuko Resort is a gem of a destination where you can relax both body and mind. I made a special trip to visit during the stunning annual moss phlox season, and after seeing it in person, I discovered that it offers more than just flowers—it’s also an excellent place to enjoy perfect, unobstructed views of Mount Fuji from every angle.

As soon as I entered the grounds, I was immediately captivated by the colorful carpet woven from flowers of every hue. Together with the thoughtfully designed, adorable art installations, the whole scene felt romantic and inviting. The overall atmosphere is very leisurely and comfortable, without an overly commercialized feel, so you can slow down, take a stroll, and admire the magnificent view of Mount Fuji. Whether you want to take stunning photos or simply find a quiet corner to immerse yourself in nature, this place is perfect. I highly recommend adding it to your itinerary if you have the chance to visit the Fuji Five Lakes area, so you can personally experience the joy of being surrounded by a sea of flowers and the sacred mountain.
Fuji Shibazakura Festival

The weeks from mid-April to late May each year bring Fuji Shibazakura Festival, the largest spring flower event in the Tokyo metropolitan area to Fuji Motosuko Resort at the foot of Mt. Fuji. The season rings in with 500,000 moss phlox plants bloom in a stunning shimmy of color that frames perfectly with Mt. Fuji just behind. The festival designs a unique theme each year to showcase the vibrant hues of all seven varieties of shibazakura, including McDaniel Cushion and Autumn Rose.

I never imagined there could be such a dreamlike place in the world, where you can take in a vast, romantic sea of shibazakura and majestic Mt. Fuji at the same time. This is a limited annual event. Just before leaving for Lake Kawaguchi, I happened to see some photos online and was instantly captivated, so I decided right then that I had to add it to our itinerary.

It takes about an hour to reach the festival grounds on the dedicated bus from Kawaguchiko Station. As soon as you enter the park, you’re completely mesmerized by the dreamlike sea of flowers stretching out before you like a giant pink and purple carpet. And when you turn around, the magnificent Mt. Fuji, Japan’s sacred mountain, rises behind you. The blue sky, white clouds, snowcapped peak, and gradient carpet of flowers come together like a breathtaking landscape painting that you can never take enough pictures of.

There were also lots of lively food trucks around the festival grounds selling all kinds of authentic sweets and savory foods. We casually picked up a few things to eat, found a comfortable bench, and quietly gazed at Mt. Fuji in the distance while enjoying our food. At that moment, I was truly filled with an indescribable sense of peace and emotion.

This is definitely a breathtaking place that you’ll remember for the rest of your life. If I hadn’t happened to come across that photo online, I might have missed this beautiful encounter. I sincerely hope that by sharing my experience, more people will have the chance to come and personally experience the wonder and beauty of this once-in-a-lifetime moment.
Peko-chan

Peko-chan appears on the packaging of Milky, a longtime favorite among Fujiya’s candies. She is forever six, and her name is a Western-style adaptation of beko, an affectionate Japanese term for a calf. She loves sweets and helps spread the word about Fujiya’s treats.

Speaking of Fujiya, when I was little, its Japanese candies seemed very high-end and luxurious. Back then, I always felt that getting to eat even one piece of Peko-chan milk candy was an incredibly happy occasion.

This time, while traveling in a small town near Nagoya, I unexpectedly came across an entire specialty shop themed around Peko-chan. The store was truly a paradise for fans, packed with classic Peko-chan merchandise, vintage collectibles, all kinds of irresistibly cute desserts, and delicate little items. There was so much to see that I couldn't take my eyes off everything. Unexpectedly encountering Peko-chan from my childhood memories in a small alley in Japan, surrounded by all that cuteness, was genuinely indescribably moving. It instantly fulfilled a childhood dream of mine.
