Tateyama Kurobe’s Snow Wall is absolutely one of those dream destinations I think everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime!
Standing between snow walls over 10 meters high is truly breathtaking. It feels like stepping into a world of ice and snow. The Snow Wall Festival, open only in spring each year, lets you walk up close along the snow wall path and experience this incredible sight for yourself. Every photo looks like a postcard.
If you’re planning a trip to Japan, I highly recommend adding Tateyama Kurobe to your itinerary. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime place where you can experience an unforgettable snowy wonderland in person!

Yokohama Cosmo World
This multi-level urban amusement park has a bit of everything, from thrilling rides like a giant Ferris wheel and roller coasters to games, haunted houses, virtual reality attractions using VR and 3D technologies, and children’s rides like merry-go-rounds and character cars.
When you come to Yokohama Minato Mirai, you definitely shouldn’t miss the super eye-catching giant Ferris wheel, Cosmo Clock 21.
During the day, you can enjoy beautiful harbor views, and at night, the ride feels even more romantic. As the Ferris wheel slowly rises, you can take in the entire Yokohama nightscape and feel the charm of the city lights blending with the harbor.
Besides the Ferris wheel, Cosmo World has plenty of other rides and attractions, making it a great place to spend a relaxed half day. Whether you’re on a date, traveling with kids, or just stopping by for photos, it’s absolutely worth a visit. -

YOKOHAMA AIR CABIN
YOKOHAMA AIR CABIN connects the Sakuragicho Terminal just in front of JR Sakuracho Station to the Canal Park Terminal in the Shinkou District. At a total length of 630 meters and 40 meters tall at its highest point, it takes only 5 minutes to get across one way.
If you’re visiting Yokohama, you have to try the YOKOHAMA AIR CABIN! It’s Japan’s first urban circulating ropeway, and in just a few minutes, you can look down from above at the beautiful scenery of Minato Mirai. It has a different charm during the day and at night.
If you’re also planning to ride the Cosmo Clock 21 Ferris wheel, I recommend buying the ropeway + Ferris wheel combo ticket. It’s a better deal than buying them separately, and you can enjoy both the aerial ropeway views and the high-up Ferris wheel scenery in one go. Perfect for taking memorable photos! -

Kurobe Dam
Standing 186 meters tall, Kurobe Dam is Japan's tallest and one of the largest dams in the world. It took seven years and the efforts of over 10 million workers to overcome numerous challenges, earning it the title of a "monumental project of the century" at the time of its construction.
Tateyama Kurobe is a breathtaking route in Japan that you should experience at least once in your lifetime, and Kurobe Dam is one of the most impressive highlights of the entire trip.
Standing on Japan’s tallest dam and taking in the majestic mountains, emerald-green lake, and massive structure is truly awe-inspiring. On a clear day, the blue sky and white clouds make the mountain scenery even more beautiful, and the gentle breeze feels amazing. Every step feels like walking through a postcard.
Kurobe Dam is also a major stop on the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, and in summer, you can see the spectacular water discharge. This trip is not just about enjoying beautiful scenery. It is a relaxing, unforgettable experience worth treasuring for a lifetime. -
