Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise

#japantrip I bought a ticket for 3,500 yen to enjoy four aquariums. It was a very hot day. There were few general visitors, so there were many kindergarten and nursery school groups. I arrived at the Aqua Museum around 10:30 and arrived at the Animal Life Live venue on the 4th floor around 11:00. I made it in time for the 11:00 show. I thought there were few dolphin jumping scenes. It was a surprisingly plain show. I guess they compare it to the shows in Nagoya and Shinagawa somewhere. The big white dolphin left an impression on me. It was smart and charming. I quickly looked around the four aquariums, had a normal lunch inside the facility, and about three hours had passed. If you're going fishing or having a family barbecue, you can enjoy the whole day, but if not, about 3 to 4 hours including meals will be enough. I didn't want to see the Aqua Museum again. Honestly, I wonder if the ticket price of 3,500 yen is cheap or expensive. Addres : Hakkeijima, Kanazawa Ward, Yokohama, Kanagawa 236-0006, Japan

Kamakura Dankazura: A Perfect Blend of History and Nature.

In Dankazura, Kamakura City, Japan, I enjoyed a leisurely and culturally rich journey. Dankazura is an important road leading to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, lined with cherry blossom trees, offering a charming view. I took ten photos to capture this wonderful experience. The history of Dankazura dates back to the Kamakura period, where it served as an important ceremonial path. Today, it has become a favorite walking spot for tourists and locals alike. Walking on this ancient road, I felt the weight of history and the beauty of nature. In spring, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, Dankazura turns into a pink floral path, drawing countless visitors for flower viewing. Even in other seasons, the scenery remains enchanting, with shady green trees and picturesque landscapes. I captured the beauty under the cherry trees, the ancient stone lanterns, and the distant Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, these photos perfectly capturing the charm of Dankazura. Beyond the natural scenery, there are many historical buildings and cultural sites along Dankazura, each filled with stories and historical significance. This stroll through Dankazura not only allowed me to experience the natural beauty of Kamakura but also made me feel the deep historical and cultural heritage of the place. I will forever cherish these beautiful memories and look forward to returning to Dankazura in the future to enjoy more of its beautiful landscapes.

Pagoda that represents 5 Elements

#japantrip I realized for the first time that the five-story pagoda represents the five elements of "earth," "water," "fire," "wind," and "sky." These are the five elements that shape this world and us humans. It was completed in 1910, so it's not that old, but it's the only wooden five-story pagoda in Kanagawa Prefecture, and is a valuable building. It was beautiful.

Kanagawa’s Top 100 Bridge

#thingstodo This bridge has a total length of 698m and spans the mouth of the Sagami River along National Route 134. I remembered it as Shonan Ohashi, so what? When I looked into it, I learned that the naming rights had been exercised since 2010, and the right to name the bridge had been exercised. By the way, this is the first time that the right to name a bridge has been exercised. In 2010, it became four lanes up and down, which reduced traffic congestion, but I remember that when it was two lanes, Route 134 was one of the congestion points. The view stretching from the river mouth to the sea is outstanding. In 1991, it was selected as one of Kanagawa's top 100 bridges.

The Sea Breeze Square

#thingstodo Shiokaze Hiroba is a plaza adjacent to the north side of Hiratsuka New Port, and is located higher than the port, so you can see the port. From the plaza, you can see Sagami Bay, Shonandaira, Izu Hakone, and Mt. Fuji, making it a scenic place. There are clean restrooms, drinking fountains, and free outdoor showers, making this a great square for surfers and port users.

Temples of blessings

#thingstodo The beliefs that pray for safe childbirth, good health for mothers and children, and the healthy growth of children, and as the god of family fortune, family safety, good health, business prosperity, and a good harvest, it is said to bring many blessings. As soon as you step inside the temple grounds, you will be surrounded by greenery, creating a peaceful and gentle space.

Spectacular Park

Cherry blossoms and tulips are also planted, giving you the feeling of spring. On weekday mornings, there were people walking their dogs and playing park golf. In autumn, some of the ginkgo trees are bright yellow and look spectacular.
