This shrine is at the northernmost tip of Japan, and coming here really gives you that “I made it to the very top” feeling. It feels super memorable and worth visiting.

Compared with the popular sights in central Nara, Taima-dera Temple is more low-key, but that actually gives it an even stronger old-temple atmosphere. The grounds feel very historic, especially the architectural details. If you enjoy culture, you’ll really appreciate this place.

Taking the sightseeing boat on Lake Inawashiro was really relaxing. The lake is huge, and it’s especially great when the weather is nice. The blue sky against the water makes the whole view feel so peaceful.

Coming here in winter really hits different. The snowy scenery with the shrine feels so Hokkaido.
The approach isn’t long, but the atmosphere is really nice and relaxing.
