Shirayama Shrine is famous for its hydrangeas and the annual Hydrangea Festival. Every June, I come here with friends to enjoy the beautiful flowers.

Keio Takaosan Onsen Gokurakuyu
Mount Takao is a Michelin 3-star destination that sees countless tourists from Japan and across the world. It’s also home to Keio Takaosan Onsen Gokurakuyu, a coveted daytrip hot springs spot located conveniently near Takaosan-guchi station so you can easily tack on a dip to your next hiking or sightseeing trip.
The outdoor hot spring was super relaxing. On a clear day, soaking while enjoying the mountain view is just the best way to unwind.

Ueno Tosho-gu
A shrine dedicated to the first shogun of the Edo shogunate (1603-1867), Tokugawa Ieyasu.
It's super easy to walk here from Ueno Station. Visiting the zoo and museum along the way makes for a perfect little trip.

JR Asahikawa Station
The city of Asahikawa is located in the center of Hokkaido. The JR Asahikawa Station is central to the east-west and north-south rail system in Hokkaido.
Asahikawa Station is absolutely beautiful. If you're a train enthusiast, you'll love it here! Every photo I took inside the station turned out amazing. I definitely consider Asahikawa Station a must-visit spot in Hokkaido.
