Seeing the charred watches and clothing remnants was really hard, but it's also so important.

Gojo River Cherry Blossom Promenade
The Gojo River rises in Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture, and flows through towns and cities in Aichi Prefecture such as Oguchi Town, Konan City, and Iwakura City. Around Iwakura City, it runs through the urban area, where you can enjoy a spectacular view of Approx. 1,300 cherry trees in full bloom lining both riverbanks for Approx. 7.6 km. In Iwakura City, the “Iwakura Cherry Blossom Festival” is held every year from late March to early April to coincide with cherry blossom season. At night, the trees are illuminated, and the fully blooming cherry blossoms glowing in the dark are breathtaking.
Super romantic! The entire riverbank is packed with cherry trees, and when they bloom in spring it feels like you’re walking through a pink tunnel—so magical.
The river reflects the blossoms, and honestly, every photo turns out great. Around sunset especially, with the golden light and the sakura, the atmosphere is 10/10. Perfect for a stroll or a date. -
Kusasenri
Mount Eboshi is one of the 5 peaks found in the center of Mount Aso. Here you’ll find Kusasenri, the breathtakingly vast, emerald green grasslands that expand northwards. Many textbook writings, as well as classical poets and song writers have immortalized its beauty in their works, making Kusasenri one of the most iconic images that people know when thinking of Mount Aso.
The museum ticket isn't expensive, but having Shin-chan and Kumamon around totally makes it worth it!

Ginzan Onsen
This hot spring resort was developed along with the Nobesawa Silver Mine which prospered in the Edo Period. After the mine was closed, it was turned into a therapeutic onsen resort until a flood destroyed it in 1913. By early Showa Period, local businesses have helped restore the village close to the current landscape with western-style wooden multi-story buildings on either side of Ginzan River.
The hot spring street still keeps its Taisho-era architecture. Walking around here really feels like stepping back in time.
