The hydrangea festival in June is gorgeous! So many flowers, I couldn't stop taking photos.

Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum
Sat in Ueno forest, the distinctive red-brick tile construction of this striking museum has served as a hall for the fine arts since it first opened in 1926.
The building itself is worth seeing—it's got a really cool design. It's located inside Ueno Park, so the surroundings are super pleasant and there's lots of greenery.

acure
This beverage brand can be found in the 9,000 some vending machines installed at station platforms and other locations in the JR East area. From natural water to tea, fruit juices, and even soups, all products are crafted with the finest Japan-made ingredients and boasts its high-quality.
This is hands down the most convenient and thoughtful vending machine at the station. Tons of drink options, the screen is easy to use, and there are lots of limited edition choices too. Cold drinks are really cold, hot drinks are nice and hot. It's clean and has a high-tech feel. I end up wanting to grab a bottle every time I walk by.

Mount Yotei
In the southern Shiribeshi Region, Mt. Yotei stands 1898m above sea level. Its beautiful cone shape like Mt. Fuji’s has brought the name Ezo Fuji since ancient times. Located at the western edge of Shikotsu-Toya National Park, the perfectly cone-shaped figure is counted in Japan’s 100 best mountains and serves as a symbol of the Niseko Area itself.
On days with bad weather, the whole mountain gets hidden in the clouds and you can't see anything at all.
