Last weekend, I took a stroll at Mitake Gorge, and the atmosphere exceeded my expectations. As soon as you step off at Mitake Station, you can immediately walk down to the riverside trail. The crystal-clear water flows over rocks, and the sunlight reflects off the red and yellow leaves in a truly stunning way, just like a scene from a Japanese movie. 🍂✨ The trail is easy to walk, not steep, making it perfect for those who want a relaxing time and enjoy taking photos. Especially during the autumn foliage season, the red and yellow colors contrast beautifully, making the walk enjoyable and not tiring. How to get there: From Tokyo → Take the JR Chuo Line to Ome → Transfer to the JR Ome Line and get off at Mitake Station. It takes about 1.5–2 hours. 🍁This is a short trip that offers a full dose of nature without being far from the city. If you love serene and slightly romantic views, this place is perfect. ❤ 🍁

#tokyospots Tokyo is a dazzling, hyper-efficient metropolis that seamlessly fuses its ancient past with a vibrant, high-tech future, offering a truly incomparable experience that is surprisingly accessible for the prepared traveler. Getting around this sprawling city is best done via its legendary public transportation system; the extensive JR and subway lines are clean, reliable, and incredibly efficient. The quintessential DO is to immediately purchase a Suica or Pasmo IC card, which allows for seamless, tap-and-go travel on virtually all trains, subways, buses, and even for small purchases at convenience stores. DON'T rely on expensive taxis for long distances or during rush hour; the trains will always be faster. Accommodation options are wide-ranging, from budget-friendly capsule hotels and hostels (especially in areas like Asakusa or Ueno) to compact business hotels found near every major station; for first-time visitors, basing yourself near a major hub like Shinjuku or Shibuya is recommended for convenience, despite the slightly higher cost. Culturally, observe the deep-seated respect for order and quiet. A paramount DO is to maintain silence on all public transport—refrain from taking phone calls and keep conversations to a whisper. DON'T ever eat or drink while walking on the street, as this is considered impolite; if you buy street food, consume it immediately near the vendor. In temples and many traditional restaurants, a firm DO is to remove your shoes before entering. Crucially, DON'T tip; Japan does not have a tipping culture, and attempting to do so can sometimes be considered rude or confusing. Always carry cash (Japanese Yen, \text{¥}), as many smaller shops and restaurants are cash-only, and familiarize yourself with the respectful bow—even a slight nod of the head goes a long way. Tokyo provides an unforgettable journey through towering neon-lit landscapes, serene shrine gardens, and culinary perfection. #Tokyo #JapanTravel #Shibuya #Shinjuku #JapaneseCulture #ICcard #PublicTransit

Musashi Mitake Shrine does not have lion dogs. Instead, there is Okuchi no Mago (Oinu-sama). When Emperor Yamato Takeru was on an expedition to the east, he got lost in the mist and a wolf guided him. Emperor Yamato Takeru ordered the wolf to stay in the area as Okuchi no Mago and exterminate all the demons. That's why Emperor Yamato Takeru's messenger is a wolf, and there are not lion dogs but lion wolves in the shrine grounds! Originally, Musashi Mitake Shrine holds its Shikinen Taisai in the Year of the Rooster, but now the statue of Okuchi no Mago can be worshiped in the Year of the Rabbit, which is half of the year. This is the second time in 2023. The statue can only be seen by ascending the sanctuary, so I took this opportunity to go up. Three wooden statues were moved from Okuchi no Mago Shrine to the main hall, and I was able to see them up close. The jet black wolf statue is impressive. There is also a lodging in the village, so you can make a reservation in advance and relax while worshiping. ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ❁ ❁ ❁┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ❥❥History In the 7th year of Emperor Sujin's reign, Takenukawawake no Mikoto enshrined Okuninushi no Mikoto and Sukunahikona no Mikoto. In 736, Gyoki enshrined a statue of Zao Gongen in prayer for the protection of the eastern provinces. In 1234, Oonakatomi Kunikane restored the shrine. In 1606, Tokugawa Ieyasu ordered the shrine to be rebuilt, facing east instead of south, as the "protector of the west" of Edo. The current offering hall and worship hall were built by the fifth shogun, Tokugawa Tsunayoshi. During the Meiji era's anti-Buddhist movement, the name "Mitake Zao Gongen" was changed to "Mitake Shrine," and after the war in the Showa era, it was renamed "Musashi Mitake Shrine." ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ❁ ❁ ❁┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ❥❥ Takekura Mitake Shrine 🚠Mitake Mountain Railway "Mitakesan Station" → 🚶‍♀️ 25 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #Tokyo sightseeing

Transportation: Take the JR Chuo Line from Shinjuku to Tachikawa Station, then transfer to the Ome Line to Ome Station. Transfer to the Ome Line branch bound for Okutama and get off at Mitake Station. The entire journey takes about 80 minutes. The mountain is not very high, about 929 meters, suitable for some beginner hikers. There is a waterfall cable car along the way. It is recommended to go in autumn so that you can enjoy the autumn leaves. There is also a parking lot for friends who drive themselves, which is very convenient. #JapanTravel #JapanAttractions #TokyoFreeTravel #Tokyo #TokyoFeatures

Mount Mitake, 929m above sea level, is located in Ome City, Tokyo. It is also called Mount Musashi Mitake and has been the subject of mountain worship since ancient times, with Musashi Mitake Shrine built on the mountaintop. You can take a cable car from the foot of the mountain to the starting point of the hiking course, but if the parking lot at the cable car station is full, you can only park a little further away, and it was quite a steep uphill walk from there to the cable car station lol There are several hiking trails, some of which are easy and take about an hour to go around, while others take 3-4 hours and involve quite a lot of climbing up and down cliffs, making it a hiking trail that can be enjoyed by both amateurs and serious hikers. Although it is somewhat well maintained, the terrain can become difficult to walk on as you go deeper, so we recommend wearing shoes that you are used to wearing! #EasternJapan #AmazingView #MountainClimbing #Hiking

Mitake Mountain Railway (Cable Car) Opened in 1934, this cable car runs up Mt. Mitake in Ome, Tokyo, and travels between Takimoto Station and Mitakesan Station. The red one in front is the Mitake-go and the green one is the Musashi-go. It's a 45-minute walk from Mitake Station. You can get close by car or bus, but depending on the season, day of the week, and time of day, you may have to line up to park in a nearby parking lot or to ride the cable car. The photo was taken midway up the mountain without taking the cable car. #supporttourism #railway #supporttourism

Deep clouds envelope Tokyo with a mix of fog and never ending silent shower like atmosphere all around. There's also a waterfall which is not of great height but the sight of it makes you want to stay there for more and more. Interestingly, surprisingly, astonishingly, we discovered a minisculest of a joint resting on some heaps of stones, during the walk to the waterfall and guess what -there was free Wi-Fi. This was a very nice day trip, walking around and seeing nature at it's finest. We not only got to see Mt. Mitake, but we also hiked along the Tama river, enjoying the beautiful scenery and waterways. #givethanks #givethanks

[Tokyo] GOOD SHED I was craving donuts, so I stopped by. The shop is stylish. I ordered salted butter and a hot coffee. They were freshly fried and juicy and delicious!!!! They were so good I ended up buying an additional chocolate. Two made me feel sick, but they were truly delicious. I had a great time. The staff were very friendly. I'd love to go back. It seemed like most customers were taking out, but I definitely recommend trying the freshly fried donuts in the shop.♪

• Jinspark in Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture Did you know that JINSoo was born in Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture? (JINS president Tanaka-san was born in Maebashi City) A store with a bakery cafe The space felt open and had a warm wooden ambiance. • Ikaho Onsen - Shibukawa City The bunny parfait wasn't shown in the shop picture. I ordered it because it featured Monaka, inspired by Gunma's famous Daruma. The rabbit-shaped Monaka surprised me! Lmfaooooo (*If you look closely, it says the Monaka design may vary.) I climbed quite a few stairs, so I recommend wearing sneakers! • KURAYA in Shibukawa City Had lunch at a 300-year-old wooden house. Ordered soup curry. The shop's atmosphere was fantastic, and the food was delicious. • Shiman Blue Visited for the first time. Amazed by the turquoise blue color of the lake. Now I want to try SUPing and kayaking.

Visiting Seihōin truly feels like stepping into another world. If you're looking for a brief escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, and want to savor the lingering charm of the bamboo forest in autumn, this is definitely a hidden gem worth recommending. After this trip, I feel that whether you're having a busy day or just seeking a quiet place, this Japanese-style garden in Ome City is a great choice. Next time, I might visit during the cherry blossom season in spring to see how Seihōin transforms with the changing seasons. Seihōin is not a popular tourist spot, so it’s not crowded, making it perfect for those who enjoy peace and leisure. Walking through the bamboo forest, feeling the gentle breeze on your face, and hearing only the soft rustling of bamboo leaves, you feel completely detached from the city. The autumn scenery in the garden is particularly soothing, with sunlight casting long shadows between the Chinese-style architecture and the bamboo forest, creating a poetic ambiance. Whether sitting on the veranda, strolling along the paths, or leaning against the pillars to soak in the autumn vibes, you are surrounded by nature, feeling stress-free and immersed in a poetic tranquility. 🏞️ Basic Information about Seihōin: Address: 1203 Oyanacho, Ome, Tokyo 198-0086, Japan 🌿 Travel Tips and Sharing: 1. Be sure to bring a light jacket, as the temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn can be significant, especially in the bamboo forest area where the air is particularly fresh but cool. 2. There are limited dining options near Seihōin, so it’s recommended to bring your own snacks or drinks. If you want to enjoy tea leisurely without leaving too soon, bring a book and relax on the stone benches in the garden or on the veranda. 3. Photography enthusiasts should bring their cameras! The unique interplay of light and shadow at different times and angles here, combined with the close-up views of the bamboo forest and Chinese-style architecture, makes every shot picturesque. 4. It’s advised to speak softly in the garden to maintain the serene atmosphere. Large groups are also not recommended to preserve the tranquility. 5. Visit in the morning or at dusk for softer lighting, allowing you to experience the temperature changes of autumn without worrying about harsh sunlight.

Because I encountered the best red leaf viewing period last year, I brought my partner to see it this year. Unexpectedly, most of the red leaves had almost all fallen, with only a few trees left (I also didn’t check this year’s expected red leaf forecast). Came late this year, will definitely come early next year 🍁🍁🍁 Drove from Tokyo to (Gunbatake Park Parking Lot), but it was already full when I arrived, so I navigated to a nearby spot (Ome Yuzuki Garden). Both are free parking lots 🅿️🅿️🅿️ Walked following the navigation to the entrance of Mitake Valley, just follow the signs along the creek~ The path is easy to walk, and I even met an elderly man sketching under a tree. Along the way, there are several restaurants and cafes; just pick whichever looks good, you won’t go wrong! I recommend the one by the river, very cozy!!! This one (Twinkle) mainly serves soba and udon noodles, tastes good. I originally wanted to eat fish here 🐟, but was told yesterday was the last day they sold it, so I missed out. The mountains are super healing and very relaxing, breathing fresh air~ 📷: FUJIFILM XT-4 50XF-140mmF2.8

📍Ozawa Sake Brewery/Sawanoi-en (Okutama Sawai, Tokyo) We visited Ozawa Sake Brewery, a long-established sake brewery nestled in the midst of nature that makes it hard to believe we're in Tokyo. We enjoyed a tour of the brewery and a sake tasting experience. 🍶 Located along the Tama River, Sawanoi-en also features a sake tasting area, restaurant, and cafe, making it a great place to relax and enjoy nature. 🌿 This time, I used my experience ticket to choose the brewery tour, which I'd been interested in. After the tour, I sampled sakes in a timed tasting session. During the sake tasting, I was even able to select two of my favorite sakes. ✌🏻 I even received a souvenir Daiginjo sake and a snack set, which I was very satisfied with. ♡ The warm soba noodles I ate while looking out over the natural scenery were delicious! I especially recommend it during the autumn foliage season 🍁 　　 🏠 @sawanoi_sake 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 ♡ Save it so you can look back on it ✍🏻 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 #Outings #DomesticTravel #AutumnFoliage #AutumnFoliageSeason #AutumnFoliageSpot #Sawanoi #SakeBreakfastVisit #SakeBreakfastVisit #SawanoiEnSeiryuGarden #OzawaSakeBreakfast #SawanoiEnSeiryuGarden #Brewery #Okutama #OkutamaDrive #OmeCity #TamagawaRiver #Sake #SakeBreweryTour #JapanTravels #Saki #Wonderful #LiquorStore
