This mountain shrine, nestled amidst lush greenery, seems to blend seamlessly with nature, filling the air with a refreshing scent. The shrine's architecture is simple and elegant, with its crimson torii gates standing out against the sunlight. The sound of the surrounding waterfalls and the rustling of leaves blend seamlessly into a natural symphony.

#Sign up for tripbest July Hotel Tester The karesansui, meaning "dry landscape", expressed by Ryoanji Temple is a traditional Japanese garden design that does not use water and symbolizes natural landscapes through stones, sand and plants. The garden of Ryoanji Temple is considered to be a model of this art form and consists of fifteen stones that are carefully placed in white gravel. There is no fixed explanation for the arrangement of these stones, but it is generally believed that they represent the "Tiger Crossing Picture", a scene where a tiger and its cubs cross a river. The design of the garden is extremely simple, but it can make me feel the profound artistic conception and trigger endless reverie. The core of this garden design is to express the depth of nature and the universe through minimalist elements. The garden of Ryoanji Temple has no gorgeous decorations, but it can make people feel a deep tranquility and harmony. Every stone and every grain of sand here has been carefully designed to achieve the best visual and spiritual effect.

Stayed at Fairfield by Marriott Gifu Seiryu Satoyama Park! Children under elementary school age stay for free✨ The roadside station features a huge park with free admission! There are large playground equipment, a petting zoo, sledding activities, and more 🥹 You can enjoy these activities before or after your stay✨ When the weather gets warmer, you can play in the splash pond too! The water was super clean, so water play seems like a lot of fun! The hotel is stylish and very comfortable 🫶 Since the beds are slightly high, it might be a good idea to use bed guards or cushions for safety when putting children to sleep! Fairfield by Marriott Gifu Seiryu Satoyama Park 📍Location: 2320 Yamanoe-cho, Minokamo City, Gifu Prefecture

#aprilblooms Visited Gifu Seiryu Satoyama Park this spring and was totally charmed by the lovely yaezakura (double cherry blossoms) in full bloom! The peaceful vibe of the park, with soft petals dancing in the breeze, made for the perfect relaxing afternoon. It’s one of those places where time slows down and nature takes center stage. The park has a great mix of natural beauty and traditional Japanese atmosphere, making it ideal for both peaceful solo strolls and family picnics. I even found a cozy bench under the blossoms—instant mood booster! Why You Should Visit: ✔ Beautiful yaezakura trees in full bloom during spring ✔ Spacious park with relaxing scenery and traditional vibes 📍 Address: 1564-1 Tokuzumishin, Seki, Gifu 501-3217, Japan #Gifu #Japan #SatoyamaPark #SpringInJapan #Yaezakura #CherryBlossoms #NatureVibes

I went to Restaurant Kawamura in Minokamo City, Gifu Prefecture! This is a restaurant where you can eat an authentic French course meal! It's located in a residential area, so if it's your first time there, I recommend checking your navigation! This French restaurant is run by a married couple and is known for its dishes that use home-grown and fresh local vegetables. Their radish potage is especially popular, and the restaurant has a cozy atmosphere.   Many people visit on special occasions such as anniversaries, and they say that they feel the attention to detail in each and every dish. Another attraction is the hideaway atmosphere in a residential area.  Please come and visit on anniversaries such as birthdays! #Spring0yenTrip

After a 30-minute ride on the Meitetsu line from Nagoya, I headed there with a friend by car from Shin-Unuma Station! The park is very large and apparently they hold events on weekends! We took commemorative photos in the sunflower fields, which are a little dull now, and walked and walked until we came to an area in the back where you can interact with animals... There were horses, goats, and even guinea pigs, so much so that it felt like a farm. You can feed them and even experience horseback riding. On weekends, you can also go on duck boats lol And finally, we went inside this building that looks like a school from the Showa era... The inside is just like an old drama! It was exciting! There are also restaurants and a small cafe in the park, where we had gohei mochi, dango, and nostalgic ramune! The adults had a great time playing there for half a day! lol It's really fun here! If you go in early autumn, the autumn leaves look beautiful! 📍Address: 2292-1 Yamanouecho, Minokamo City, Gifu Prefecture, 505-0003 #FuriTabi

This is what Gifu Seiryu Satoyama Park looked like in mid-April. I went with a friend, and the weather was nice and there were lots of flowers, so it was very healing. Also, there is no admission fee, so I would recommend it to people with children. There are food trucks and so on, so it's nice to buy food and eat it, but I also think it would be nice to bring a picnic lunch and eat it there! I would highly recommend it at this time of year. It may be difficult to get to for people without a car because of the inconvenient transportation, but if you do, please go!
