The clouds can be fickle, but unless it's a grey day out, have patience and it might just pay off!! We waited for an hour with hope, after exploring 神の道 (legend says the gods look for this ancient pine to know where to disembark from their journey). And what a sight it was to see Mt Fuji tower over the bay. I can absolutely see why it's listed as one of the 3 legendary sights!! Also featuring a kitty sitting atop a rock like a god himself.

Miho no Matsubara (三保の松原, Pinery of Miho, Pine grove at Miho) is a scenic area on the Miho Peninsula in Shimizu Ward of Shizuoka City, Japan. Its seven-kilometre seashore is lined with pine trees. It is the location of the legend upon which the Noh drama Hagoromo is based; on the second Saturday and Sunday of October, the city of Shizuoka holds a Hagoromo Festival and a performance of the Noh drama takes place near the pine tree of the legend.

The pine Grove is really a board walk to the beach. The beach is black volcanic gravel. The view of Mt Fuji didn't disappoint. Not all the cafes were open so there was no option for black tea and sandwiches or cake.

Miho no Matsubara is a breathtakingly beautiful destination in Japan that exceeded all my expectations. Located in Shizuoka Prefecture, near the iconic Mount Fuji, it offers a unique and magical experience for nature lovers.
Upon arrival, I was immediately captivated by the majestic views of endless pine trees, stretching along a mesmerizing coastline. The sweeping landscape had an ethereal quality, which made me feel like I had stepped into a pristine painting.
Walking along the sandy beach, I couldn't help but marvel at the awe-inspiring waves crashing against the rocks. The rhythmic sounds coupled with the fresh salty air provided a serene and calming experience. It was incredibly therapeutic to simply sit by the shore and observe the power and beauty of nature

My 4th visit to the Miho-no-Matsubara was back in January 2021. My 5th visit was in April 2023 where I visited the entire coastline from the pine grove all the way to the northern tip where we can also see the Miho Lighthouse. Along the entire coastline, you can catch many views of Mt. Fuji with different compositions. Even if the weather is cloudy, be patient as the offshore winds blow the clouds making Mt. Fuji visible throughout the day. Naturally, a clear day during winter is the best chance to catch clear views of Mt. Fuji. In addition, the walking trails extending all the way from the lighthouse to the the pine grove is very nice and relaxing. The nearby parking lot behind the visitor's center is free. For an even more immersive experience, I've detailed each photo location with helpful Google Maps links, along with fascinating historical information and references for further exploration over at the Pix4Japan blog post dedicated to Miho-no-Matsubara.

This is the beach for you if you are one of those who needs privacy to enjoy your beach time.
Yes you got it right, this beach has pine trees forest lined up on one side and as it should be water on the other.
Being a high tide time, the waves kept approaching the shore and we had the best time of the little beach experience that we have.
Access is no issue for this place. We visited it from Yokohama and there is this one long road along the ocean side all the way through odawara.
Visit this on a clear sky day and get a view of the one and only Mt. Fuji. Unfortunately for us it was cloudy and we could only get a momentary glimpse of it.
Enjoy your beach time. Fully recommended. I will visit again, for sure!!!

Many local goods and several shops of interest in this big shopping mall. My family and I went on the Ferris Wheel, which was managed well and we even bought the photo after we finished the ride. The highlight of the visit was the kaiten sushi restaurant. It was kind of small, but the fish was incredibly delicious. My wife wanted to have sushi in this port town, and we didn't regret our decision. Great service at every location and a place I will return to whenever I can. We were visiting from Nagano Prefecture and loved our day trip!

A shuttle bus (10-15mins ride) is available from Shimizu JR - go by the East Exit and there will be a pickup stop for shuttle buses. On foot will take about 20-25mins. It's a great place to buy souvenirs. A huge variety of Shizuoka, Mt Fuji, Shimizu & Suruga Bay specialties. There is also the Chibi Maruko Land worth visiting if you are a fan. Also good for trying local seafood as well as photo taking.

Kunōzan Tōshōgū, a picturesque Shinto shrine established in 1617, is a must-visit in Shizuoka Prefecture. It honors Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate and a key figure in Japanese history. The shrine's serene ambiance and stunning architecture make it an ideal place to pay respects to this influential leader.
It was very interesting since the ride to the hill shared very interesting facts. It has a lot of cool stuff owned by the shoguns in the Edo period in the museum too! It made me take a lot of pictures. You should go if you like visiting shrines.
Venti Thebard — Google review
Beautiful shrine and tomb of Tokugawa Ieyasu. Amazing views of the Shizuoka bay as well as the Mt. Fuji. Look for the upside down Tokugawa emblem that represent the unfinished and imperfect nature of beauty. Illumination of the shrine during November. Take the rope way, walking up to the top could be a challenge. A must see when in Japan

The Kunozan Toshogu shrine is worth a visit if you're in the area. It's historically significant and also really rather impressive. The steps up the hillside can be a chore (take a bottle of water with you), particularly in warm weather.

Historical place. Somehow, it is popular to Japanese because of very famous drama. It seems like this shinsa was the filming location. The shinsa was full of Japanese. Many of them came to pray and meditate. It looked good that elders and youngs visited for their pray. The flowers at the shinsa were blooming, so now migut be a real good time to go visit.

quite like it here - it's quiet and calm, then was able to walk around with a peaceful mind and enjoy the environment. but i went there at a late time so some entrance to the temple was already blocked, i was only able to look at it from outside. but it's beautifully built. the stairs were quite large and high, so had to walk carefully especially for elderly. i spent around an hour here but i think when it's in operation hour like around noon? when all the temples are open and welcome for worshipping, it'd be good to spend more time here to refresh and relax both body and soul here.

Should be top of the list when visiting Shizuoka! Tokugawa Ieyasu is a big deal in Japan, and it’s awesome to learn about his origins in the Shizuoka area, visit his tomb, and see his personal collection of items in the museum. This is the original Toshogu shrine where Ieyasu’s body is buried. The Nikko one was built later. We had a special tour to go inside the main hall which was amazing.

A shrine of significant historical importance which is well worth visiting if you are already at Nihondaira. If you take the ropeway, it'll only take about 5 minutes each way. There is a car that comes every 15 minutes. If you came here by car, be wary of the bus timetables.
Johnny Lam — Google review
I really enjoyed my visit to this shrine. It was very moving to be able to explore it and see the grave of Tokugawa.
We took the rope way from Nihondaira and then walked down to the coast afterward.
While i was there, there was a ceremony going on in the main temple for a newborn baby which was very interesting and educational for me to witness.
We also went into the museum which was incredible. They have many personal items that belonged to Tokugawa and his descendants along with the armor worn by many individuals of his family line and swords that were used by them as well. It was very cool to see them and left a very strong impression.
There are also some amazing views of the town and coast below the shrine.
I highly recommend coming here if you have the opportunity.

The length of the bridge is said to be 897.4m (without misfortune), and the name of the teahouse is 897.4chaya.
It takes about 15 minutes to walk across the bridge one way.
Today's weather forecast showed wind speeds of 8 m/s, so I felt like I was walking at an angle. When I held up my phone to take a photo, the wind seemed to take away my phone. The width of the bridge is not that wide so I was a little nervous.
Although it was cold, it was great to see Mt. Fuji clearly.
Order hot tea (280 yen) at 897.4 Chaya and relax outside in the sun.
I even saw a plane taking off from Mt. Fuji Airport 😁

The wind was so strong that I was able to stand on an angle, and it was an experience I had never experienced before.

An amazing long wooden bridge. Build in 1879, 879m. Japan's largest wooden pedestrian bridge. Enjoy walking and you can also bring your bicycle. In the other side of the bridge there is souvenir shop, and other view. A friendly staff 😊

Horai Bridge is a great site to visit in Shimada City. It connects the city with a forested area on the other side of the Oigawa (river), where there are some trails and a number of statues and other items of apparent religious (?) importance. Note that in the winter, the wind can make it very cold to cross the bridge.

A great bridge to have a walk. Taken place in the guinness book of records as the longest pedestrian wooden bridge. Entry fee 100yen.

Yume no Tsuribashi, also known as Dream Bridge, is a 90-meter-long suspension bridge that spans the Sumata Gorge in Shizuoka. The bridge hangs 8 meters above the striking emerald-colored Oma Dam Lake, which gets its vivid hues from the Tyndall Effect. Visitors are captivated by the unexpected beauty of this lesser-known gem and can experience thrills while walking across it.
We went on a Tuesday at 1pm and nobody was there. It was so beautiful. My wife made me go and it was so much better than what I expected. It is truly breathtaking and we have never seen anything like it. The water is crystal clear and blue. The surrounding area is beautiful. I would have liked to have seen it before all the fall leaves were gone, however I know there would be so many people here. Our friend from Tokyo drove us there. The road to it has a lot of turns, very narrow, and you go up and down mountains. Also, when you cross the bridge, you are not supposed to cross it back (from what we read and heard). You are supposed to continue up a steep mountain and circle around. With nobody there, we just crossed back and did not have to go around and do that steep hike. In the end, I recommend going at this time and during the week. Hardly any people and it is still beautiful.

What a beautiful place!!!
The stunning water that can go from a green shade to a blue one depending on the weather is definitely worth a visit.
Crossing the bridge can be both challenging and fun. Surprisingly, even though it's not stable at all, I felt very safe and secure on it.
Be prepared for the way up after the bridge as the staircase seems to be endless. I had to make some stops on the way to catch my breath (just for the record, I'm not in my best physical condition 😅).
Wear comfortable shoes for it's a long walk back to the parking lots area and if possible, plan your visit to a non holiday weekday.
There's no cost to enter the park, but they do ask for donations to help on maintenance (non mandatory) and the parking lots are charged.

(Translated by Google) This is an unmanned station on the Oigawa Railway, located right near the Shiogo Suspension Bridge.
The section where Shiogo Station is located was suspended due to heavy rain several years ago, and trains do not stop there.
There were some weeds on the platform, but the inside of the station building was kept clean.
The clock is also working and well maintained.
When I visited, there was no one but me, so I sat on a bench for a while and stared at the mountains on the opposite bank.
You can feel the time passing slowly.
If it's a warm day with no wind, I think it's a little-known spot where you can relax.
There is "Shiogo Suspension Bridge Parking Lot 1" nearby, so we recommend that you leave your car there and visit while sightseeing around the suspension bridge.

(Translated by Google) The Oigawa Railway main line has not yet opened, so there are no trains coming or passing through.
Today, March 30th, it was a stop for a substitute bus, and I came to take pictures while crossing the Shiogo suspension bridge.
Cherry blossoms are in full bloom everywhere, and a calm air is flowing.
I would like to see the entire line open as soon as possible so I can ride the Oigawa Railway Main Line and visit.
If you cross the suspension bridge in Shiogo, you will find the Shiogo Dam and Yakunowaki Shinsui Park campsite, and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom now, so why not cross the thrilling suspension bridge and enjoy some cherry blossom viewing at the park? ?

(Translated by Google) 20191122 Shioho Station is the only station where I got off on the Oigawa Main Line of the Oigawa Railway. I only wanted to get off at this station for the Shioho Suspension Bridge. It rained heavily today, which may have reduced the number of tourists. When I got off the bus, there was no shelter from the rain on the platform. I quickly crossed the road to the waiting area built on the opposite side, and looked around for hundreds of meters, except for the passing cars. There was no one else around, and it felt a bit desolate. In addition, it is also difficult not to notice the entrance sign of the tall Shioxiang Suspension Bridge on the side. The Shioxiang Suspension Bridge is a very exciting suspension bridge. It is hard to imagine that such a simple and thin structure can support my 90 kg uncle. People who come here may be worried about not being able to find a toilet. In fact, in addition to the station platform, there is a small attraction of Kawane Waterfall near the entrance of Shiogang Suspension Bridge. There is also a clean and beautiful toilet there. Overall, although the area is a bit desolate , but there is still no shortage of necessary facilities.

20191122塩鄉車站是我在大井川鐵道大井川本線唯一下車的車站,我只所以會想這個車站下車只要是為了塩鄉吊橋。今天雨勢不小,遊客或許因此大減,我一下車由於月台連遮雨的地方都沒有,我還趕緊過馬路到對面一座搭建的待車區,環顧四周數百公尺除了過往來車皆無其他人,感覺有些荒涼。除此之外也很難不發現一旁高大的塩鄉吊橋的入口指示,塩鄉吊橋算是一座蠻刺激的吊橋,難以想像這樣看起來簡單瘦弱的構造,能撐得起我90公斤大叔。來到這裡的人或許會擔心找不到廁所,其實除了車站月台以外,塩鄉吊橋入口附近有一個川根瀑布的小景點,那裡還有一個乾淨又美觀的廁所,總歸來說附近雖然有些荒涼,但該有的設施依然不缺。

Shimoizumi, Kawanehon, Haibara District, Shizuoka 428-0304, Japan
Kakegawa Kachoen is a captivating theme park in Kakegawa city, Japan. It boasts one of the largest greenhouses in the country, where visitors can interact with birds and enjoy various flowers. The park offers bird shows, opportunities to feed the birds, and even take photos with penguins and owls. Additionally, guests can explore a water lily pond and an emu farm on the premises.
If you love birds, you'll love this place! I easily spent over 2 hours here. You can feed the birds, but the sale of food ends at 3:30 PM, so be sure to arrive before that. At 3:30 PM, the birds will get fed, so you won't be able to go close to them while they eat, but it is adorable to see them all munching down on their meal. There are bird shows as well, but the outdoor show is only once per day. Highly recommend if you love birds!

This is a great place to visit, especially with kids! A variety of birds on display, many of which you can touch, pet and feed. It's an assault on the senses, especially the smell, but the place is quite clean and constantly being scrubbed -- especially the bird areas. The suspended flower garden entrance is enchanting, and the attached restaurant section is good for a bite or two. You get a chance to buy bird-related souvenirs on your way out. You can easily walk from the Kakegawa Station, and it's efinitely worth checking out.

There are lots of different kids of birds walking around in the place. You can feed most of them too. It was my first time to see flamingos and toucans so up close. (You know in the zoo, they're far away form you.)
When I brought my 3yo, flamingos looked down on her and she got really upset. So, it might be more enjoyable for kids who are older than elementary school age. This time, my kids were 8yo and 10yo, so they had no problem.
There are various activities available, such as holding cute ducks and penguins. You can also put several different kids of owls on your arms.
Thankfully, they have a variety of menu at the cafeteria. They even have hamburgers, and they were pretty good. My little one went with something unique that has a shape of a bird nest. She was really happy.
It's a bit far from the nearest station, so we took a taxi on our way there from Kakegawa station. We wanted to explore a bit, so we walked back to the station. We will definitely go back again.

Climbed to the castle on Saturday evening.
It seems to have been recently renovated and is very clean.
Ninomaru Palace, where you can also enter the botanical garden near the entrance with the same ticket, is also wonderful.
The castle tower itself has steep stairs, so it takes some courage to climb up, but the view is good.
I didn't have enough time so I only went into the castle tower and Ninomaru Palace, but I saw the view of the castle tower from Sannomaru Square, Lotus Pond, Takenomaru, Stained Glass Museum, Dainippon Hotokusha, Prince Arisugawa Prince Takehito's former residence, and the Yotoku Prayer Memorial. There were many things to see near the museum.

If you are in the area, Kakegawa Castle is worth a visit. The original castle was constructed by a local daimyo about 5 centuries ago during the Sengoku, or Civil Wars period. During the period that followed, Kakegawa and the surrounding area prospered. Unfortunately, most of the castle was destroyed in an earthquake in 1854. The castle tower was reconstructed in the 1990s, and was the first castle in Japan to be rebuilt with wood. I have posted photos of the castle from the surrounding area and from the top.

The stairway in the tenshu gaku is deep and high, must mind the steps.
Shops and stores down the castle gate closes around 4-5pm, so if guests arrives in the afternoon, it would be smoother to go rough the shops then visit the castle. The sunset over the castle hill is surprisingly beautiful.
Hattasan Son-ei-ji Temple is a temple complex that showcases historical structures, landscaped gardens and vendors offering sweet dumplings. Recently, I visited the temple for their matsuri event where many lanterns illuminated the area. The stairs were quite high but not exhausting to climb. It would have been better if the festival was held on weekends. Additionally, the omamori trinkets were cute and there were many interesting food choices available.
We went there yesterday after work for their matsuri wherein the temple was lit with many lanterns. The stairs is very high but not that tiring. I wish the fest was held on weekends. Cute omamori too! And many interesting food and the ambience on the lower part is very alive while on the top most part is very serene. The wind chimes looked cute too especially of there’s wind

However, crossing the prefectural border between Shizuoka and Nagano on Route 152 was a stressful journey, so having a roadside station here gave me a bit of a breather.
The restrooms were clean.

(Translated by Google) A shrine located on Mt. Akiba that enshrines the god of fire.
The golden torii gate towering on a hill with a great view is very divine!
The road is narrow, but you can drive to the parking lot near the shrine.
After climbing about 350 steps from the first parking lot, you will arrive at the shrine grounds!
There is a parking lot at the foot of the mountain, and you can also climb up the mountain from there, but you will need to be prepared with shoes and drinks as you will have to climb an unpaved mountain road for about 2 hours.
The mountain trail can be quite slippery when wet, such as after rain, so be careful.

秋葉山にある火の神様を祀っている神社。
見晴らしの良い高台に聳え立つ金の鳥居がとても神々しい!

山の麓にも駐車場があり、そこから山を登って訪れる事も出来ますが、舗装されていない山道を2時間ほど登る事になるので靴や飲料等それなりに準備が必要かと思います。
登山道は雨が降った後など濡れている時はかなり滑りやすいので注意が必要です。

(Translated by Google) Akiba Shrine is located on the summit of Mt. Akiba at an altitude of 866 meters, located upstream of the Tenryu River. Akibayama has been revered since ancient times as a sacred mountain where gods rest, and it is said that the first shrine building was built in the second year of Wado (709 AD) during the reign of Emperor Genmei. The current main shrine is a reconstruction, but it was made entirely of cypress and was luxurious. The view from the front of the Chozuya is wonderful, and you can see the entirety of the large Tenryu River in your hands. After praying, I went to the shrine office to receive a goshuin stamp.

天竜川の上流に位置する標高866mの秋葉山山頂に秋葉神社は鎮座しています。秋葉山は古くから神様の鎮ります御神体山として崇敬され、初めて社殿が建ったのは和銅二年(西暦709年)元明天皇の時代と伝えられているようです。現在の本殿は再建ですが、総檜造りで豪華な造りとなっていました。手水舎の前から見る眺望は素晴らしく、大きな天竜川の全体像が手に取るようにわかります。お詣り後は社務所にて御朱印をいただいて参りました。

Nakatajima Sand Dunes, one of Japan's three largest sand dunes, offers a picturesque setting for various recreational activities. Extending 2.48 miles from east to west and approximately 0.6 km from north to south, this sandy attraction is ideal for kite flying, leisurely walks, and bike riding. The area hosts the Hamamatsu Kite Festival and boasts stunning views of the Pacific Ocean at its southern edge.
It is a part of giant sea wall to protect Hamamatsu city from tsunami when there's a big water movement, especially triggered by Nankai Trough. The funding comes from the big housing company, Ichijou Komuten, and supported by other corporates & local government. They planted the mangrove trees and keep the sand dunes there to reserve its natural environment. It's beautiful and keep the people safe living behind the wall. The coastal beach area is also georgous, completed with the giant park close to it.

The Hamamatsu City Museum of Musical Instruments is a must-visit for music enthusiasts, boasting an impressive collection of over 1,300 instruments from various countries. As Japan's sole public musical instrument museum, it offers a unique opportunity to explore the rich diversity of global musical heritage. The first floor showcases instruments from Japan and Asia, while subsequent levels feature collections from Africa, South America, Europe, and beyond. Visitors can also enjoy hands-on exhibits and even participate in performances at this immersive destination.
Never would’ve imagined that a museum of musical instruments would be the highlight of a mini-vacation, but there you go. If you have any interest in music, this place is worth a couple of hours of your time. The range of exhibits is seriously impressive.
Justin Norrie — Google review
This museum should be amazing and it has a fantastic collection. However the displays are oddly arranged, crowded and unpleasant to look at (for the Japanese aesthetic) -- they also result, therefore, in dreadful photos. It's a shame because this could be done so much better.
Mandy H — Google review
An amazing collection of instruments from around the world. Allow at least 2 hours to look around and to also play on the selection of keyboards (and a drum kit) that are provided for this purpose. Many items are labelled only in Japanese so if you don't speak the language you can use Google lens on your smartphone to identify and understand what each exhibit is. There is a small gift shop on your right as you exit the exhibition space.

At first, this museum seemed small; I wasn't super impressed when I first walked in. Next thing I knew, we had been there for 3 hours! There is a really impressive collection of old and obscure instruments, and the interactive room was fun even for adults. This is a must-visit for anyone who has played a musical instrument.

Perched on a hilltop, Hamamatsu Castle is a restored fort and history museum surrounded by a picturesque park with seasonal blooms and stunning city vistas. Once home to the young warlord Ieyasu Tokugawa, the castle now houses a permanent exhibition of samurai artifacts, including swords, armor, maps, and family crests. Visitors can ascend to the third floor for a 360-degree viewing deck offering panoramic views of the city and even glimpses of Mt.
A cool place to see the Hamamatsu city from a higher ground. You can also see the tip of Mt. Fuji when the weather permits.
We enjoyed reading the history and appreciated the works of arts, and the architecture. There is a 200 yen entrance fee to get inside the castle which is turned into a museum. The displayed items show the relics of the Japanese people and its government several decades ago.

Because the cherry blossoms were in full bloom and there was some kind of festival there, it was packed. There were a lot of people because the scenery was amazing! We enjoyed looking at the cherry blossoms! But waiting to park your car will definitely take 1-2 hours so be prepared to wait.

Short 30mins walk from the city centre or Hamamatsu Station. Offers great views of the city. Has a few good cafes nearby and a beautiful Starbucks in the vicinity. While small in size, the grounds can be covered fairly quickly. Admission is around 200yen. Gift shop is small, and elderly gentleman at cashier does not speak English and isn't very friendly. Staff at admission is alot friendlier. Steps to the castle are somewhat gravel and mud, so watch your steps. One visit is enough.

Interesting history of the formation and rebuilding of the castle as a defence for the clan and its leader Leyasu Tokugawa. I enjoyed reading about the archaeological relicts and the reconstruction of the castle in the 1950s after WW2. Also use Google translate to understand about the geology of the granite base of the castle its quite interesting. Entrance fee was only ¥200.
Very nice size and proportion more akin to a large house nowadays so not sure where he kept his 2 wives, 16 concubines and 20+ kids at? It must be outside the castle lol.

The Airpark JASDF Hamamatsu Air Base Museum, also known as the Hamamatsu Air Park, is a unique attraction located within Japan's Ministry of Defence. Situated on a working air base, visitors have the opportunity to witness active planes taking off and landing. The museum boasts an extensive collection of military aircraft and offers flight simulators for an immersive experience.
It is good to visit this Airpark because its free😊 also you can see the other kind of plane. This place is also good for the kids. The place is wide and nice.
?? — Google review
The Hamamatsu Airbase earns a perfect 5/5 rating for its exceptional qualities. Firstly, the fact that admission is free is a significant advantage, making it accessible to a wide range of visitors regardless of their budget. The airbase holds historical significance, offering visitors a glimpse into Japan's aviation heritage, which adds depth and meaning to the experience. Additionally, the provision of free parking enhances convenience for visitors, ensuring a hassle-free arrival and departure process.
One of the standout features of the Hamamatsu Airbase is the opportunity for visitors to go inside the cockpit of aircraft, take pictures, and even change clothes, providing an immersive and memorable experience. The inclusion of cockpit demonstrations further enriches the visit, allowing visitors to gain insight into the operation of these impressive machines. Moreover, the airbase offers a commanding view of the runway, providing visitors with an exciting vantage point to observe aircraft in action.
However, there are a couple of drawbacks worth noting. Firstly, all the information provided at the airbase is in Japanese, which may pose a challenge for non-Japanese speakers to fully comprehend the historical context and details of the exhibits. Additionally, the size of the airbase is relatively small, which could limit the amount of time visitors spend exploring the site.
Overall, despite these minor drawbacks, the Hamamatsu Airbase offers a superb experience, combining historical significance, interactive elements, and scenic views to create an engaging and enjoyable visit for all. Its free admission, coupled with unique features like cockpit access and demonstrations, make it a must-visit destination for aviation enthusiasts and history buffs alike.

Located next to active military training airport you are likely to see a lot of aircraft training if you visit at a good time. The museum itself is free and offers an overview of the Japanese Self Defence Air Force, how it operates, aircrafts used and so on. The second part is a hangar with planes, helicopters and experience zone.
Thr downside is that there is no direct bus line from the station so you need to walk a bit to get there. Second downside is that all the materials are only in Japanese, but I think that doesn't matter for the most part.
I would highly recommend this for military or plane enthusiasts. Families with children at the age where they enjoy airplanes will find the experience zone super fun as they can for example go into a cockpit simulator of a fighter plane.

無番地 Nishiyamacho, Chuo Ward, Hamamatsu, Shizuoka 432-8551, Japan
Chausuyama is a mountain peak that boasts an active volcano, offering various walking trails and trekking routes suitable for all levels of hikers. In addition to these, there is also a ropeway available for visitors to enjoy the stunning view. However, during the Shibazakura Festival, visitors should be aware that a parking fee will be charged.
The highest mountain east of Nagoya, located at the border of Aichi and Nagano prefectures. Even though it is not so high and there is an only very small ski resort, the specialized constructed driving way to the top is very much breathtaking with so much very Japanese great nature in the mountains.
Located at the edge of northeastern Aichi and southwestern Nagano, very close to the border with Shizuoka prefecture also.
Driving car or with tourist group from Nagoya, recommended tourism course is, through the Sanage Green Road which is very new and comfortable ETC highway, and after the very end directly run national route 153 which is very much natural Japanese countryside route with lots of nature alongside, through southern Nagano till Chuo expressway at Sonohara or Iida Yamamoto.
Recommended visiting or driving route is from Nagoya, see and experience some tourism spots like Toyota automobile museum or IKEA Nagakute east of Nagoya, see the beautiful tiny rounded river Kanpachikyo which is very close from the end of the Sanage Green Road.
Around Asuke area can see red and brown or sometimes even gold coloured very much special maple trees at Korankei in autumn, can try to taste local traditional snacks like Goheimochi or grilled solty or Japanese miso flavored river fishes or can find any kind of very traditional souvenirs at Korankei, then you can find lots of onsen around Inabu and southern Nagano, onsen means very traditional Japanese hotsprings which every foreigner can experience only in Japan. There are some nice affordable hotels as well. Very Japanese countryside natures.
By the way here is the border of both Aichi and Nagano and the address of this place should be Nagano prefecture I guess.

(Translated by Google) Strong wind Saturday was moved up to the next day.
We left the field at 6:30, expecting heavy traffic jams due to the Shibazakura Festival.
From the second Tomei Shinjo IC, head north to Chausuyama Kogen Road.
Things were going well with no traffic jams, but there was a traffic jam 1.2km in front of the second parking lot, which was my destination.
We finally arrived at the parking lot at 9:45.
Hiking to the top from here
On the way, you can see the top of Jiyū no Oka.
Arrive at the observation deck at 10:10am. You can see the deep southern part of the Southern Alps.
Two striped snakes are basking in the sun at my feet.
After passing another steep climb, we reach the summit at 10:30.
You can see the moss phlox in the opposite direction beautifully from the observation deck.
Descending to the north, thunder rock appears on the way, everyone is climbing
I'm heading south from here
On the way, I came to Amagai-do Cave, which was formed by overlapping large rocks.
Further down, you will find Fufusawara.
A cute lost item on the way back to Freedom Hill
I got back to the parking lot around 11am and still had time.
Climb the ski resort towards the flower corridor of the sky and the moss phlox hill
11:45 Arrive at Shibazakura Hill at the top of Mt. Hagitaro
Thank you for the nice weather and moss phlox!
Descend the mountain and head down the plateau road while watching the heavy traffic jams from the climb up.
Soak in the hot springs at Roadside Station Donguri no Sato on Route 153

Even in August, it's cool at around 25 degrees, but it gets hot when you walk.
Although the mountain trail is well-maintained, there are places where the steps are difficult to climb even for adults, and there are places where soil has washed out.
If the weather is good, you can see the Alps and the city from the observation deck at the top.
I think the plaza along the way is a good place for picnics and camping as there are not many people.

A neat multi-level waterfall in Shinshiro City, Aichi. As its name suggests, there are seven falls and measure 26 meters in height. Access is rather difficult. Driving would be your best option. A part of the road is often blocked during the rainy season due to landslide, so you have to find another way to get around it.
¥300 for parking. There is an old restroom located next to the parking lot and also a vending machine. Approximately a 15-min walk from the parking area to the waterfall. Not a huge area.

(Translated by Google) It is said that the waterfall has 7 tiers, but the upper part cannot be seen. The rock was carved out at a step in the middle, creating a waterfall basin, which was beautiful.
There is something called Kotaro Kannon here, and many people seem to visit it. There is a small shrine on the rocky part of the way next to the waterfall.
The shop at the entrance doesn't seem to be open during the winter, but there was a sign saying it would be open from spring.

滝が7段になっているとのことですが、上の方は見えないようです。途中途中の段になっているところで岩が削られ、滝壺になっていて綺麗でした。
ここには子宝観音なるものがあり、多くの方が訪れるようです。滝の横の途中の岩場に小さな社があります。
冬季は入り口の売店は営業していないようで、春からの営業との内容の看板がありました。

I ran because of the name Nanataki.
In a quiet, quiet forest. The only sound is the sound of the waterfall.
These are the seven waterfalls in Atera, where you can escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

(Translated by Google) Prefectural Route 442 that came here was closed, but there was a detour sign and arrows along the way, so I was able to get to the parking lot without getting lost. I was grateful.
There is a toilet in the parking lot, but you cannot use it. There was a vending machine. Please put the parking fee in the fare box.
There's a signboard that says it's a 15-minute walk from the parking lot, and if you don't drive around on the way, you'll probably get there in about that time.
You can also take your time to see some small waterfalls, rocks, and flowers along the way.
The road is well maintained, so you can go there even in sandals (it goes without saying that shoes are good).
Although this waterfall is not spectacular, it has a calming atmosphere that will soothe you. I thought it looked nice during the autumn leaves season.
(Original)
ここに来る県道442号線は通行止めでしたが、迂回路の看板が出ていましたし、途中にも矢印があって迷う事なく駐車場まで来れました。ありがたかったです。
駐車場にはトイレがありますが、使用は出来ません。自販機はありました。駐車料金は料金箱へ入れます。
駐車場から徒歩15分の看板があり、途中道草などせず行けばこれくらいの時間で着くかと。
途中にもいくつか小さい滝や岩、花などゆっくり見てもいいですよ。
道はキチンと整備されているので、サンダルでも行けます(靴がいいのは言うまでもありません)
この滝には豪快さはありませんが、落ち着いた雰囲気で癒されます。紅葉の時期はいい感じだと思いました。

Horaiji is a Buddhist temple located on a hilltop within a larger complex. It's renowned for its autumnal foliage and picturesque views. The journey to the temple offers breathtaking scenery, making it well worth visiting. The temple itself is modest yet well cared for. A map of the trail leading to the temple has been included in the photos section to assist those wishing to make a trip there.
Breath-taking views on the way to this temple make the trip well worthwhile. The temple itself is humble and well maintained. I have attached a map of the trail to the temple in the photos section to assist those wanting to make a visit.

(Translated by Google) We climbed about 1,300 stone steps in the pouring rain. It was actually planned to be cloudy when we climbed the mountain, but it can't be helped since it's a mountain.
I parked at the first gate. Is it because it's low season? It was free.
We climbed the stone steps for about 40 minutes. After about 800 steps, the stairs became steeper. There was a bench along the way, so I took a break and climbed up.
I went with regular shoes, but I slipped on a stone on the way back💦I slipped about 3 times. It's dangerous.
When we arrived at the main hall, there was a rest area where we could enjoy the view, and we were able to relax while looking at the view. The chairs were huge and I felt like I could relax quite a bit.
If you come from the parkway, you can probably see Toshogu Shrine first.
The Okunoin temple was said to take another 40 minutes from the main hall, and since I had somewhere else to go, I stayed there.
The scenery was very nice.

雨がぱらつく中石段を1300段くらい上がりました。登る時はほんとは曇の予定でしたが、山なのでしょうがないですよね。
駐車場は一の門の所にとめました。閑散期だからでしょうか?無料でした。
40分くらい石段を登りました。800段くらいから急な階段に変わっていきました。途中途中でベンチありましたので、休憩してのぼりました。
普通の靴で行きましたが、帰りは石で滑りました💦私は3回くらい滑りました。危ないですね。
本堂にたどり着き、景色を見られる休憩所があり、景色を見ながらやすらぎました。椅子がでかくてかなりまったりできそうでした。
パークウェイからだと東照宮から先に見れそうですね。
奥の院は本堂からさらに40分かかるとなっていて、他に行く所あったのでそのままおりました。
景色とてもよかったです。

The ruins of Nagashino Castle, dating back to the Sengoku era, are a popular spot for accessing the nearby river. While descending towards it, visitors are advised to be cautious and also ensure that they close the fence behind them. This is important as it helps prevent wild animals from entering areas where they don't belong. The castle site has significant historical value as it was the location of the famous Battle of Nagashino in 1575.
Historical battle field.

A nice place to access the river. Be careful on the descent. And make sure to close the fence behind you. It's there to prevent wild and crazy animals from mucking around where they shouldn't be.

(Translated by Google) Speaking of Nagashino, it is famous for the battle between Oda Nobunaga and Takeda Katsuyori after Shingen's death, but it seems to be a region closely associated with battles, as it was also the stage of the conflict between the Tokugawa clan and the Takeda clan.
Very few remains of the castle remain, but given its location between two rivers, it makes you wonder if the castle was built with the advantage of the land in mind from the beginning. It seems possible.
There is a museum adjacent to it, where you can also buy 100 famous castle stamps and castle seals.
The Iida Line tracks also run nearby.
(Original)
長篠といえば、織田信長と信玄亡き後の武田勝頼との戦いが有名ですが、徳川氏と武田氏の争いの舞台にもなるなど、合戦とは縁深い地域のようです。
城の遺構自体は残っているものはごくわずかですが、川が分岐して川と川に挟まれた立地だけに、当時から地の利を考えて築城したのだろうか・・・などと思いを馳せることができそうです。
隣接して資料館があり、そちらには百名城スタンプや御城印の販売もあります。

(Translated by Google) The moat and earthworks are well preserved. There is an explanation of the Takeda army's position during the Battle of Nagashino and the location where Torii Goemon was captured. You can imagine the tense situation at the time.

(Translated by Google) It is a strong fortress built in a place surrounded by a river that even 15,000 soldiers of the Takeda army could not capture. There aren't many ruins left and there aren't many things to see, but if you look at the cliffs on the river side, you can clearly see that the castle was built by making good use of the natural topography.
(Original)
武田軍1万5千の兵でも攻め落とせなかった川に囲まれた場所に造られた堅城です。遺構がそれほど残っていなく見所は少ないですが川側の断崖を見ると自然の地形を上手く利用して造られた城だったのが良く分かります。

(Translated by Google) I took a walk on December 26, 2023.
It is a natural fort built on a river terrace near the confluence of the Toyo River and the Usure River.
Imagawa, Takeda, and Tokugawa fought for it.
It is said that Motonari Suganuma built the castle in 1508. In 1571, Takeda Shingen began moving west and attacked Nagashino Castle. Driven to the point of falling, the lord of the castle, Masasada Suganuma, surrendered to the Takeda army. In 1573, Takeda Shingen died of illness. As the Takeda army retreated, Masasada Suganuma opened Nagashino Castle to the Tokugawa army. In 1575, Takeda Katsuyori laid siege to Nagashino Castle. The castle lord, Nobumasa Okudaira, barricaded the castle with only 500 soldiers and fought well. At that time, Torii Koemon would become active. You can see the place where Goemon was crucified in the distance on the opposite bank of the river. In addition, a signboard has been erected in front of a private house near the parking lot at the spot where Goemon shouted that reinforcements were coming. Kuruwa, earthworks, dry moats, stone walls, wells, etc. remain. The castle gate was relocated to Momogyu-dera Temple and still exists today. The castle was abandoned in 1576, when Okudaira Nobumasa built a new castle.
It just so happened that the day I visited was a day when the Historic Site Preservation Museum was closed, so I couldn't take a tour, which was a shame.

2023年12月26日に散策しました。
豊川と宇連川の合流点付近、河岸段丘上に築かれた天然の要害です。
今川、武田、徳川が、争奪戦を繰り広げました。
永正5年1508年に菅沼元成が築城したと伝わっています。元亀2年1571年に武田信玄が西上を開始し、長篠城を攻撃しました。陥落する事態まで追い込まれ、城主の菅沼正貞は、武田軍の軍門に降りました。元亀4年・天正元年1573年に武田信玄が病没します。武田軍が、退却したため、菅沼正貞は、長篠城を徳川軍に開け渡しました。天正3年1575年に武田勝頼が長篠城を攻囲しました。城主の奥平信昌は、わずか500人の兵で籠城し、善戦しました。その時、鳥居強右衛門が活躍することになります。川の対岸に強右衛門が磔にされた場所が遠望できます。また、駐車場からすぐの民家の前に強右衛門が、援軍が来ることを叫んだ場所に看板が立てられています。曲輪、土塁、空堀、石垣、井戸などが遺っています。城門は、桃牛寺へ移築され、現存しています。天正4年1576年に奥平信昌が、新城を築城したため廃城となりました。
たまたま、訪れた日が、史跡保存館の休館日で見学できず、残念でした。

(Translated by Google) This is the site of Nagashino Castle, which was defended by Sadamasa Okudaira, a military commander on the Tokugawa side, from the Takeda side with just 500 men.
It is said that Torii Goemon, who was crucified, informed Nagashino Castle that Tokugawa reinforcements were coming, which boosted morale and enabled him to defend the castle.
Today, the museum and castle topography remain, making it quite a tourist destination.
However, there is ample parking, plenty of explanatory signboards, and the impressive moat, which is enough to imagine the strength of Nagashino Castle's defenses.
Shinobazu Falls is flowing right next to Shiro, and you can even see the JR Iida Line train right up close.
You can enjoy it even if you are not interested in history.
(Original)
徳川側の武将である奥平貞昌が、たった500名で武田側から守り抜いた長篠城の跡地です。
磔刑にされた鳥居強右衛門が徳川の援軍が来ることを長篠城に告げ、そのおかげで士気が上がり、守り抜くことができたと言われています。
現在は博物館と城の地形が残っており、なかなか渋い観光地となっています。
しかししっかりとした駐車場があり、説明看板も充実しており、堀などは迫力満点で長篠城の守りの強さを想像するには十分です。
白のすぐ隣には不忍の滝が流れており、JR飯田線の鉄道をすぐ間近に見ることもできます。
歴史に興味がなくても楽しむことができます。

The Iwamura Castle Ruins are located on a secluded mountain and consist of stone walls and a turret from a 12th-century castle. It is considered one of the top three mountain castles in Japan, but only known among select individuals. Visitors should be aware that it requires a steep 2km hike up and down the mountain to reach the ruins. English translations are available for explanations, as well as QR codes for CG photos of what the castle would look like.
The foundation stones of the castle are still as strong and stable as the day the were laid hundreds of years ago.
The location, high on a hill, gives a commanding view of the local area although the surrounding forest has grown tall and obstructed the view from when the castle was occupied.

Wish I knew there were too parking lots before hand. Don't use the back one. Also wish I knew it was a 2km hike. 1 up and down a mountain. English translations on l explainations. QR codes if you want to see CG photos of what the castle would look like. I could not find a drink machine. The museum didn't have one or the bathroom area at the top of the mountain. I had to go to the hotel place across the street.
