The view from the Yukemuri Observatory left a lasting impression on me. From above, you can look out over the entire city of Beppu and see hot spring steam rising continuously from all around town. The white mist drifts between the streets and wooded hills, creating a landscape unique to Beppu and showcasing the charm of this hot spring city.
A gentle breeze blew across the observation deck, with sweeping views of the distant mountains and city. It was wonderfully refreshing. Around sunset, the warm light illuminates the city and steam, adding a romantic atmosphere that makes you want to stay a little longer and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Fukui Station West Plaza (Dinosaur Plaza)
With the extension of the Hokuriku Shinkansen in March 2024, Fukui Station is drawing increased attention. The "Dinosaur Plaza" at the west exit is a fitting gateway to Fukui Prefecture, known as the "Dinosaur Kingdom" due to the numerous fossils discovered here. The plaza boasts a variety of dinosaur-themed attractions.
從福井車站一走出來，就能看到巨大的恐龍模型矗立在廣場上，栩栩如生的造型十分壯觀，彷彿回到了遠古時代，吸引許多遊客停下腳步拍照留念。
福井是日本著名的恐龍化石發現地，因此車站周邊也充滿恐龍主題設計。除了大型恐龍雕像外，還有會動的恐龍展示，搭配聲光效果，讓人感覺十分有趣又充滿驚喜。這些特色景觀不僅適合親子旅遊，也讓旅客更加認識福井的自然歷史。 -

Hida Takayama Old Townscape
Hida Takayama Old Townscape is said to be a town where the original landscape of Japan remains, as the streets from the Edo period still remain, and the charming town houses and noren (curtains) of old stores continue to be seen.
這次來到飛驒高山老街，最吸引我的就是充滿日本傳統風情的街景。走在整齊的石板路上，兩旁是保存良好的木造町屋，古色古香的建築與街道氛圍，讓人彷彿穿越回過去的日本。沿途還有許多特色小店，販售手工藝品、伴手禮和當地美食，讓人邊逛邊感受高山獨特的文化魅力。
來到高山，最不能錯過的就是有名的飛驒牛。入口即化的口感和濃郁的肉香，讓人留下深刻印象。不論是飛驒牛握壽司、牛串燒或牛肉料理，每一種吃法都能品嚐到細緻的油花與鮮美滋味，讓味蕾得到滿足。 -

Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden
Shinjuku Gyoen once stood as an estate of the Naito family, the hereditary vassals of the Tokugawa family in the Edo period before being established as an imperial garden in 1906.
One of the things I was most looking forward to on my Tokyo trip was seeing the cherry blossoms at Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden. As soon as I entered the park, I was amazed by the blossoms in full bloom. The pink and white flowers, spacious lawns, ponds, and gardens came together like a beautiful spring painting.
Walking beneath the cherry trees was incredibly romantic. Whenever a gentle breeze passed through, petals slowly drifted to the ground, making me stop and admire the view. The park was very pleasant, with visitors leisurely enjoying the blossoms, taking photos, and making the most of spring. Compared with the bustling city, Shinjuku Gyoen felt peaceful and elegant, allowing me to fully appreciate the magic of cherry blossom season.
This visit not only gave me the chance to enjoy some of Tokyo’s most beautiful spring scenery, but also helped me appreciate how deeply people in Japan value and cherish nature. Although cherry blossom season is brief, it left me with wonderful, lasting memories. -
