Standing on the castle walls, you can overlook the city. If the weather’s good and you find the right angle, you can really capture what makes the main keep unique.
The cherry blossoms were still just starting to bud—this place must be gorgeous in spring.

It was in a place kind of like a community center back in Taiwan. Lots of seniors had set up a small market with handmade items and processed farm products, selling things while chatting with each other. It felt so warm and welcoming.
The indigo-dyeing class was split into groups, and everyone used simple techniques to make a one-of-a-kind indigo-dyed hand towel that’s a great keepsake. I really liked it. -

The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a beautiful garden. No matter where you wander, it’s picturesque, and every view makes you want to stop and take it in for a while. It’s the kind of place you don’t want to leave.

You can take a leisurely stroll along the Omotesando, try some street snacks, and browse the little shops with unique finds.
We stayed at Hotel Indigo Inuyama Urakuen that day. The area nearby was quiet, and we could view Inuyama Castle from a distance from different angles. -

It felt like stepping into a hidden paradise. Wandering through the village was like traveling through time.
The distant mountain peaks were covered in snow, and the gassho-style houses were beautifully scattered around. The scenery was absolutely stunning and so relaxing. ☺️ -

We were lucky to avoid the heavy snow and strong winds right at the start of the 2025 opening. At the same time, that stormy weather helped create the tallest snow wall in years—16 m.
If your schedule isn’t too tight, it’s worth staying overnight in the mountains. Seeing the peaks blanketed in snow, stretching one after another, is absolutely breathtaking. -

The Oboke sightseeing boat has Chinese-language narration.
The rock formations on both sides are wild and look like nature’s handiwork. Every now and then, you hear a little train whooshing by, echoing through the valley.
For the Koboke viewpoint, you drive up the mountain. After a few hairpin turns it’s a little nerve-racking.
But the view from the lookout is wide open, and standing up there just feels so refreshing.
We also ran into a few older guys with huge cameras posted up, waiting to capture the split second a train comes out of the tunnel. -

Kankakei in the fall is absolutely gorgeous. Riding the ropeway and taking in all those autumn colors, you can’t help but admire nature’s incredible craftsmanship. It honestly felt like I was walking through an art museum created by nature.

Kochi in winter is beautiful. I visited Katsurahama on a warm day, and unlike the blue-green, calm vibe of the Seto Inland Sea, this place is all about the deep, rich blue and the powerful, sweeping Pacific Ocean.

The shopping street in front of the main building was packed with people. The “mikan juice from a tap” is definitely a fun local experience.
I naively thought the mikan juice that comes out when you turn the faucet was free 😆
The Starbucks here is connected to the station and has a retro vibe, and even the Lawson sign is designed to be low-key.
I also heard they recreated the Bocchan Clock for Taipei Songshan. I’ve never seen it in Taipei Songshan, but I’ve seen the one in Matsuyama, Ehime twice 😆 -
