[A miracle in Hokkaido! Feel the pulse of the earth at "Showa Shinzan" 🌋✨]

#Spring0yenTrip "Showa Shinzan" suddenly appeared in Sobetsu Town, Hokkaido, a new volcano born from eruptive activity since 1943🌋. The sight of it still rising steam even now lets you feel the power of nature up close! 👀 ① A reddish-brown lava dome suddenly appeared!

The impressive scenery is sure to overwhelm visitors😲. 💡 ② Take a walk in the sky on the Usuzan Ropeway🚡 The ropeway that runs from the foot of Showa Shinzan to the summit of Usuzan is now in operation! From the gondola, you can get a panoramic view of Showa Shinzan and Lake Toya. Enjoy the great nature of Hokkaido on a 6-minute walk in the sky! 🌄 ③ Be impressed by the spectacular view from the top of the mountain! After getting off the Usuzan Ropeway, you can enjoy a magnificent panoramic view that extends not only to Showa Shinzan but also to Lake Toya and the Pacific Ocean✨.
