Visiting Kinrin Lake in Yufuin, Japan, was one of the most memorable experiences of my trip. Standing by the lake, I saw the clear, calm water reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and surrounding trees. The scenery was so beautiful and uplifting that I couldn’t resist taking out my camera to capture it.
As I strolled slowly along the lakeshore, everything was peaceful. All I could hear was the breeze rustling through the treetops and birds singing, which made me appreciate the beauty of nature. Although I didn’t get to see the famous morning mist that appears in fall and winter, the lake and mountain views were still moving. It reminded me that every season has its own unique charm.
There are also many interesting shops and great places to eat near Kinrin Lake. You can sample local snacks while walking around and enjoy a leisurely visit. This trip not only let me admire the beautiful scenery, but also taught me to slow down and truly appreciate my surroundings. I hope to return to Kinrin Lake someday to experience it in another season. I’m sure it will bring even more wonderful surprises and lasting memories.

Oyunuma Pond (Niseko Yumoto Onsen)
Oyunuma is a dramatic hot spring pond located along the scenic Panorama Line that runs between Iwanai and Niseko towns. This geothermal feature was formed by a combination of rainfall, inflow from the Yunokawa (Yusanbetsu River), and the continuous release of high-temperature sulfur gases and thermal steam from beneath the pond.
來到登別的大湯沼，我立刻被眼前的景象吸引。湖面不停冒出陣陣白煙，四周瀰漫著淡淡的硫磺氣味，讓人真實感受到火山地熱的力量。這是我第一次這麼近距離欣賞火山地形，心中充滿新鮮感與驚奇。
沿著步道欣賞大湯沼，不同角度都能看見熱氣緩緩升起，搭配周圍翠綠的山林，形成一幅特別的自然景觀。聽完導覽介紹後，我才知道這裡的溫泉水溫很高，也了解登別溫泉豐富的地熱資源，讓這趟旅程不只有美景，也增加了許多知識。 -

Lake Toya
There is no better attraction than the natural landscape of Lake Toya in Hokkaido. The area around a caldera lake, Lake Toya , and an active volcano, Mt.Usu, was designated as the Toya- Usu Unesco Global Geopark in UNESCO Global Geopark.
The lake is crystal clear and calm, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds like a beautiful landscape painting. Walking along the lakeshore with a gentle breeze and fresh air feels incredibly relaxing and offers a welcome break from the busyness of everyday life.
The lakeside has well-maintained walking paths and rest areas where visitors can leisurely enjoy the views of the lake and mountains. A sightseeing cruise offers an up-close view of Nakajima Island and another perspective on Lake Toya’s natural beauty. At sunset, the warm light shimmers across the water, making the scenery even more enchanting and hard to leave behind. -

Susukino
Susukino is one of the most famous entertainment districts in Sapporo. Along with Kabukicho in Shinjuku and Nakasu in Fukuoka, Susukino is called one of the "three central entertainment districts in Japan.
Susukino, Sapporo’s liveliest district, showed me a completely different side of the city from the daytime. Neon lights illuminated the streets, which were lined with restaurants, shops, and local snacks. The vibrant atmosphere drew plenty of visitors for shopping and dining, filling the night with energy.
I strolled around while sampling Hokkaido specialties like ramen, jingisukan grilled lamb, and fresh seafood. Every dish was memorable. The beautiful signs and bustling streets also made for great photos and wonderful memories. -
