Tokyo is an incredibly vibrant city. I've visited more times than I can count, and while organizing my photos, I came across its iconic landmark—Tokyo Tower 🗼 (東京タワー).
No matter how many new attractions I visit, Tokyo Tower remains the starting point of the city's most romantic stories 🗼. More than its grandeur during the day, I prefer the warmth of Tokyo Tower as night falls.
For someone who has visited Tokyo countless times, Tokyo Tower 🗼 has long since become more than just a tourist attraction. It offers emotional significance and a sense of connection.
No matter how many new landmarks appear in Tokyo, its classic silhouette will always be irreplaceable.
Looking through the photos, the feelings and stories from that time come vividly back to life once again ✨

A Pilgrimage for the Popular Manga, “Slam Dunk”
This is the location of the railway crossing that served as a model for the opening scene of Slam Dunk, a basketball-themed anime that has gained enthusiastic fans not only in Japan, but all over the world.
A travel show is featuring sights in Kamakura〜
I still remember the streets of Koshigoe one summer a few years ago. The lively streets happened to be hosting Koyurugi Shrine’s annual summer festival, and residents dressed in traditional happi coats (festival clothing) held lanterns and traffic batons as they kept the neighborhood streets safe.
A retro green train slowly made its way through the narrow streets with its lights on, while modern transportation and the everyday traditions of a century-old shrine festival blended harmoniously here.
A delightful surprise on this trip was finding four little metal birds on a railing dressed in blue-and-white summer sweaters. This gentle tradition, quietly carried on by local residents, brought the journey to an incredibly heartwarming close. -

TOKYO SKYTREE(R) TOKYO SKYTREE TOWN(R)
Boasting a height of 634 meters, TOKYO SKYTREE is the world’s tallest free-standing tower which stands in the center of TOKYO SKYTREE TOWN surrounded by tourist facilities. The tower has two observation decks, Tembo Deck at a height of 350 meters and Tembo Galleria at 450 meters.
As the weather gradually cools and a single leaf heralds autumn, I think back to my 2025 Tokyo fall foliage trip~
An unexpected discovery during the trip was strolling through a grove of ginkgo trees. The towering canopies on both sides had already turned a rich golden yellow, with sunlight filtering through the leaves. Walking among them, I was surrounded by the beauty and tranquility unique to autumn.
An autumn night beneath TOKYO SKYTREE. I arrived at TOKYO SKYTREE in the evening and looked up at the majestic tower soaring overhead. The warm surrounding lights intertwined with branches covered in orange-yellow leaves in front of me, adding a gentle touch of autumn to the modern architecture.
With autumn on my mind, I could feel in the slightly chilly weather that winter was approaching. May this feeling continue to accompany me on my travels around Japan ^_^ -

Sakitsu Church
Sakitsu is a peaceful fishing village now, but this “hidden Christians’ village” survived the era of persecutions. Sakitsu Church is at the center of the village with a Gothic-style tower standing tall.
🌿 World Heritage Site・Sakitsu Village
First, I saw the commemorative marker for the “Hidden Christian Sites in the Nagasaki and Amakusa Region” World Heritage Site.
On a quiet afternoon, I strolled through the sparsely populated World Heritage Site of Sakitsu Village. There was no bustling commercial district or crowd of people, so I could take my time observing the houses, streets, and residents’ daily lives.
Sakitsu Village weaves together faith, history, traditional homes, mountains, and the sea.
Christianity went through a period when it was banned. The older guides told stories about this fishing village and how the faith continued to live on here.
A quiet little place where you can walk slowly, look around at your own pace, and take in the stories that remain here.
