The morning market in Marsaxlokk, which is only open on Sundays, in Malta
I went to the morning market in Marsaxlokk, Malta!
It's a great place for sightseeing, with fresh fish, souvenirs, and traditional Maltese sweets😊
The morning bus is crowded with many people going to Marsaxlokk, so I recommend going early!
I left Valletta at 9am, but the bus was very crowded😅

The world's oldest prison!? "Abashiri Prison"
This time we will introduce "Abashiri Prison"!
Located at the foot of scenic Mt. Tento, this open-air history museum has the theme of "Hokkaido development and prisoners".
It preserves and displays buildings that have been used by Abashiri Prison since the Meiji era.
The oldest building was built 109 years ago, six years after the prison came to Abashiri.
Unlike today, wood was sawn by hand, without the use of machines, and the thick beams and pillars still bear the rough marks of prisoners' carving.
The "Five-Wing Radial Single-Story Cell Block", which opened to the public in 1985, is the oldest prison facility in Japan and the oldest wooden penal building in the world!
The site area is about 3.5 Tokyo Domes, and a tour takes about 1.5 to 2 hours.
If you come to Abashiri, please be sure to visit!

Address: 1-1 Yobito, Abashiri, Hokkaido

Kitahama Station is the closest station to the Sea of Okhotsk.
This time we will introduce "Kitahama Station" in Abashiri City, Hokkaido 🚃
JR Senmo Main Line "Kitahama Station" is a small unmanned station in Abashiri City along the Sea of Okhotsk where drift ice flows.
This station is touted as the "closest station to the Sea of Okhotsk" and the "closest station to drift ice", and is a popular tourist spot that appears in various movies and dramas!
Inside the small wooden station building, there is a snack and cafe called "Teishaba" where you can enjoy a delicious lunch, which is also one of the attractions of Kitahama Station! !
In winter, you can see the mysterious drift ice that is unique to Japan from the train window along the Sea of Okhotsk between Shiretoko-Shari Station and Abashiri Station. Kitahama Station is also a station with a long history that opened in the Taisho era, and the old-fashioned postbox at the entrance matches the retro wooden station building. When you enter the small, unmanned station building, you will find cute colorful chairs, and the ceiling and walls of the waiting room are covered with business cards and tickets that travelers have pasted as souvenirs! Be sure to visit during the drift ice season. #tripmemory2022 #outdoor #hokkaidotrip #snowscenery #abashiri #abashiricity #shiretoko #hokkaido #winter #snow #train #unmannedstation #retro #photospot #travel #filmcamera #wintertrip #spectacularview #trip2022 #tourismsupport
Nikko Toshogu is a Shinto shrine situated in Nikko, To
Nikko Toshogu is a Shinto shrine situated in Nikko, Tochigi Prefecture. The shrine is part of the “Shrines and Temples of Nikko,” listed in 1999 as a World Heritage site. It is the mausoleum of Ieyasu Tokugawa, who founded the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1603 and passed away in 1615. The original temple was rebuilt into the spectacular complex by the third Shogun Iemitsu in 1636 to demonstrate the power of the Tokugawa Shogunate. The buildings in the precincts are world-famous for an abundance of colorful and elaborate sculptures depicting plants and animals as well as imaginary creatures.

Hirizo Beach⛱
Introducing Hirizo Beach in Minamiizu ✨
There are lots of fish, making it a great snorkeling spot 🤿
It's in the direction of Minamiizu, so it's about 3 hours from Chigasaki 🚗
There is limited parking, so it is often full on weekends! On this day, we left in the middle of the night the day before and arrived just after 3am!
Hirizo Beach is about a 10-minute ride away on a small ferry ☺️It was very crowded because it was the weekend!
The ferry is convenient because there are many regular departures both to and from work ⛴
It is recommended to go on a weekday when there are fewer people ☝🏼✨
It is very beautiful and I think it is great for those who like snorkeling! Please go and check it out 🌈

[Kyoto] Take a leisurely stroll around the Kyoto Imperial Palace
#KyotoTrip
On the way back from a trip to Kobe, we took a detour to the Kyoto Imperial Palace 💫 I had always wanted to go to the Kyoto Imperial Palace, but I missed it on my school trip in elementary school, so I was glad I had this opportunity 😉 Maybe it was because we went quite late, but there were hardly any people there, so we felt like we were the only ones there on the vast grounds 🙌 It was rich in nature and had an atmosphere that made me lose track of time 💫 I thought that if I lived in Kyoto, I would come here every day for a walk, but it took me an hour to walk around the whole place 😂 I had a wonderful time ✨

Yakushi Onsen
Kayabuki no Sato Hatago
We visited here on a trip to celebrate my grandmother and mother's 80th and 60th birthdays.
I like beautiful and luxurious inns, but the thatched roofs are full of atmosphere as if you've traveled back in time.
Of course the food, scenery, and hot springs are great, but the highlight is the hospitality-filled service.
As it was an anniversary trip, we had champagne and chanchanko 🎉
We even received a souvenir on the way out, and we were grateful for the generous hospitality.
If we have the time and money, this is an inn we'd like to visit again.

Hunting for great souvenirs at Siam Center
If you're looking for something a little different to buy in Bangkok, then we recommend Siam Center. The store has a rugged, cool atmosphere, and the purple industrial design is sure to whet your appetite. There were many innovative designs, including beaded bags and bags made from recycled materials. #Bangkok #Souvenirs #SupportTourism
A stroll around Aomori Station
I was particularly impressed by the pyramid-shaped tourist souvenir shop Aspam and the many public art pieces along the coast, including seals.

A place to relax in the heart of Kyoto
Although Kyoto Gyoen is located in the center of Kyoto, it is rich in nature and is a place of relaxation for the citizens.
On sunny days, people enjoy picnics or read books in the shade of the trees. Many people also take walks.
It is famous for cherry blossoms in spring and autumn leaves in autumn, so summer and winter are recommended to avoid crowds.
You can feel the quietness of Kyoto.
Many new inns have opened nearby, so it is nice to stay overnight and take a walk in the morning.

Head to Keelung, where you can see the sea.
I've been to Taipei many times.
I thought I'd like to go somewhere a little different for once, and this is where I came up.
I got off at Keelung Station and took a bus around.
I went up to a hilltop where I could see the ocean.
There are lots of shipyards nearby.
I could see containers and lots of cats, and that alone made me happy.
The mountain in front of the station has the word KEELUNG written on it.
It had a Hollywood-like worldview.

"Kamagata Shrine" is famous for its kettle lids
Itatehyosuji Shrine
Another name is Kamafutajinja Shrine
It is said that if you can carry a kettle lid on your head from the torii gate to the worship hall without dropping it, your wish will come true 🤲
Behind the shrine, you can see the vast ocean and Mt. Kaimon clearly!
It's interesting to see the large kettle lid and benches ^ ^

[Roadside Station Izu no Heso]
I went to the roadside station Izu no Heso!
There were many local specialties of Shizuoka and Izu on sale, such as local vegetables and fruits, shiitake mushrooms, wasabi, sakura shrimp, and tea!
They had a wide range of products, including sweets, local vegetables, souvenirs, and seafood, and it was fun just looking around!
There was also a shiitake mushroom UFO catcher!
There is a hot spring in nearby Izu Nagaoka, so you can enjoy it there too!
You should definitely try the hot springs!

Kamogawa Sea World is truly spectacular
Kamogawa Sea World, an aquarium in Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture, is recommended for families and couples 🌊

The well-coordinated combination of the instructor and the killer whale is a masterpiece ✨😄

For breakfast in Shimoda, Kanemitei is the place to go!
[Shizuoka Prefecture: Shimoda]
If you're going to Atami on your Shizuoka sightseeing trip, take a little trip to Shimoda🚗
"Kanemetei" is located near the roadside station in Shimoda, at the end of the Izu Peninsula🐟
They have a set menu that is only available in the morning, so some people come all the way to Shimoda just for breakfast🚙
The breakfast set is a bargain at 650 yen, but it's very filling💥
It's recommended because you can eat fresh fish that can only be found in a fishing port!

[Kagoshima] Kamafuka Shrine
Located right next to the sea, Kamafuka Shrine is a little mysterious because it is said that a kettle lid was found and worshipped as a god.
If you put the kettle lid shown in the fourth photo on your head and walk from the torii gate to the offering box without using your hands, you will have good luck✨
So I tried it!
If you walk slowly and without rushing, it surprisingly won't fall off😳
It was a fun shrine that was like a little theme park!

Shiretoko, Mt. Rausu, etc.
This is Mt. Rausu on the Shiretoko Peninsula.
Mt. Rausu is a stratovolcano in Shiretoko National Park, Shiretoko, which was registered as a World Heritage Site (World Natural Heritage Site) in 2005. It has an elevation of 1,661m. It has not erupted since 1996. When I visited, clouds were covering the summit at first and I couldn't see the whole picture, but the clouds gradually moved and it became like the photo. It was September at the time, and the green season was vivid✨
The second photo is Oshinkoshin Falls, and the third photo is Gensei-kaen Station on the JR Senmo Main Line♪
Access: The only public transportation to access Mt. Rausu is by taxi💦The closest station is Shiretoko-Shari Station on the JR Senmo Main Line, and the nearest airports are Memanbetsu Airport or Nemuro Nakashibetsu Airport. I went around by car with three friends. Also, Oshinkoshin Falls is a 40-minute bus ride from Shiretoko-Shari Station

Utsunomiya Futarasan Shrine
Futarasan Shrine is about a 10-minute walk from Utsunomiya.
The stairs are impressive, but I want you to see the view after you climb them.
Utsunomiya Futarasan Shrine is a shrine in Utsunomiya, Tochigi Prefecture. It is a Shikinaisha (shrine in the Shikinaisha) and Ichinomiya (first shrine) of Shimotsuke Province. Its former rank was Kokuhei Chusha (national medium-sized shrine), and it is currently a beppyo shrine under the Association of Shinto Shrines. Its divine crest is the "three-comma comma". Its official name is Futarasan Shrine, but to distinguish it from Nikko's Futarasan Shrine, it is called "Utsunomiya Futarasan Shrine" after the name of the place where it is located. It is said that in the past it was also called Utsunomiya Daimyojin. #AutumnTrip #CoupleTrip #Trip2022 #SupportTourism
