In Japan, filled with beautiful cherry blossom scenery, the Higashi-Yodo embankment is a famous cherry blossom viewing spot in the Kansai region. Located in Yawata City's Yodogawa River Park, the embankment is lined with cherry trees for about 1.4 kilometers, forming a magnificent cherry blossom tunnel. Every year in early April, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the entire embankment is covered with a pink sea of flowers, becoming an enchanting cherry blossom avenue. Visitors can enjoy the splendid cherry blossom views from the park's grassy plaza and observation deck, while also enjoying the pleasure of picnicking. Access to the Higashi-Yodo embankment is very convenient. It takes about half an hour from Kyoto by Keihan train to reach Yawata City's Nanajo Station, and then a 15-minute walk to the embankment. Along the way, there are signs guiding the route to the cherry blossom viewing spots, which is very convenient. Although the cherry blossom scenery here may not be as elegant as Kyoto's, its spacious space and picnic atmosphere attract many independent travelers and locals. On the way to the embankment, you can also buy food at convenience stores or enjoy a bento at the entrance, making the cherry blossom viewing trip even more perfect.

I went to Louisiana Mama in Yawata, Kyoto for lunch. At lunch, the main dish comes with a salad bar and a drink bar! There are many types of salads and drinks, so you will be very satisfied. From 14:30, there is also a dolce buffet, which is popular because all of the dishes are handmade by pastry chefs and look cute and delicious. At lunch, you can add handmade dolce for 400 yen + tax for 4 types! At dinner, all menus come with a buffet of appetizers, dolce, and drinks. There is no time limit, so we were able to take our time.

Japanese food is already a delight on its own but Kyoto has to be the best prefecture for food in Japan. 🇯🇵 Home to seven 3-star michelin restaurants, Kyoto houses the 3rd most number of michelin restaurants in a city. 🤩 Try the best A5 wagyu you will ever taste (hint: it’s not Kobe). 🤫 It’s called Matsusaka and it’s such a rarity that it is harder to procure than Kobe beef. 🤤 Besides food, Kyoto is a wonderful mix of modern and tradition, with lovely sightseeing locations full of Japanese culture spread around the city. Perhaps the most famous would be the geishas in Gion. 🎎 🏯🎍 Lots of opportunities to hike as well, with arashiyama and otokoyama surrounding the city. 🥾 #japan #travel #foodtrip

Beigeti is a bit like a private cherry blossom viewing spot of the Japanese. It is not a must-see for tourists like the Philosopher's Path, and its transportation location is closer to the countryside, but the Japanese love to go there. The standard operating procedure of the Japanese is that after arriving at the station, they go to the supermarket to do some shopping, then walk to Beigeti to find an open space to put down a picnic mat and stay there for the whole day. We, as locals, of course, follow this model, watching cherry blossoms, drinking beer, listening to music, chatting, and walking the dog on the embankment. This daily life is so enviable. The cherry blossoms on the back are not small and cute, but majestic, as if to say, if you want to see cherry blossoms, I will give you a whole row of them. # Sakura Frontline

My dears, Shigeki-dori in Yawata City, Kyoto Prefecture is a must-visit cherry blossom resort in your lifetime! When spring comes, this place becomes like a dream. More than 250 Somei Yoshino cherry trees are in full bloom along the river bank, and the entire river bank is instantly transformed into a sea of ​​pink cherry blossoms. The gorgeous landscape is amazing and very popular. Unlike the delicate and small cherry blossom landscapes in Kyoto's temples and shrines, the cherry blossoms on the Backward Dike have a more open and magnificent feel. The river park sandwiched between the Kizu River and the Uji River 🏞️ has transformed into a bustling cherry blossom festival. Take a leisurely stroll along the approximately 1.5-kilometer cherry blossom trail. When you look up, you will see clusters of flowers, and when you look down, you will see colorful fallen petals. It is so romantic that it will make you intoxicated. The cherry blossom tunnels on both sides of the trail are breathtakingly beautiful. When the warm light of the early morning or evening shines down, the light and shadows interweave with the petals, as gorgeous as colorful clouds. Standing in the middle of it, the beauty of that moment is enough to move people to tears and be unforgettable. Don’t miss this romantic date in spring, come to Beiqie Dike and feel the charm of cherry blossoms! #Kyoto Sakura

I took the 8:10 Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine Approach Cable Car to visit Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine. The seats at the very front and very back were heated and warm. It takes about 30 minutes to walk there. After getting off the cable car, there is a short walk to the main shrine, but the air is clear and it feels good. Since it was early in the morning, there were hardly any visitors and I was able to worship in a solemn atmosphere. The shrine building, which is also designated as a national treasure, is very beautiful. The Minami-somon Gate opens at 6:00, but the gift shop and prayers open at 9:00. There is also an observation deck where you can get a panoramic view of Kyoto's cityscape, which was amazing! #DomesticTravelStrategy

I went strawberry picking🍓 at Osazen Farm in Yawata City, Kyoto!! I made a reservation the day before in mid-February, but on the day, it was fully booked! I recommend making a reservation early! It was the last reservation time, so I was worried that there would be any strawberries left, but there were four large greenhouses available that day, and they seemed to be rotating them well with the other greenhouses! No matter the time, there were lots of bright red, sweet strawberries🍓! It was 50 minutes long, and I thought I wouldn't be able to finish it, but it went by in a flash and I was able to eat a lot until the end♪ There were also photogenic spots, and it was OK to bring your own food, so I bought some condensed milk on the spot and enjoyed the taste~ [Osazen Farm] 📍Address: 339 Uchizato Sugai, Yawata City, Kyoto Prefecture 614-8228 🕰️Opening hours: 10:00~, 11:00~, 12:00~, 13:00~, 14:00~ 💰Price per person: 2,800 yen for adults May vary slightly depending on the season #0 yen trip February 2025

There's always a long line, so I went in the evening instead♪ Thanks to that, I was able to sit comfortably, and the staff were very kind and polite. They greeted me loudly and the service was really pleasant. The most popular tsukemen has a rich fish powder aroma and flavor, and the meat has a yuzu aroma, making it an addictive taste that never gets old. The light soy sauce ramen with seasoned egg was super light, and I had half and half of it with the tsukemen, which was just right! It's a ramen that I want to eat again and again, and my Korean boyfriend really liked it.

Flying Shrine⛩️ 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 A shrine founded by Ninomiya Chuhachi in 1915 (Taisho 4)⛩️ Ninomiya Chuhachi was the first in Japan to successfully carry out a powered model flight experiment, but after learning about the achievements of the Wright Brothers, he left airplane✈️ development. Afterwards, Chuhachi, who was saddened by the high number of aviation accidents, used his own money to build this shrine to console the souls of those who died in aviation accidents. The grounds include a jet engine and a Zero fighter propeller. At the back, there is also the Flying Shrine Museum. There is also a building that looks like an ancient temple, so it doesn't have the feel of a shrine. The main hall consists of three altars. The first hall (center) is dedicated to Nigihayahi-no-Mikoto, the god of the sky. The second hall (right side) is dedicated to the spirits of the aviation victims and pioneers of the aviation industry. The third hall (left side) is dedicated to Yako Shrine, which enshrines great figures in the Japanese pharmaceutical world. ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ꕥShrine name: Flying Shrine ꕥAddress: 44 Yawata Doi, Yawata City, Kyoto Prefecture ꕥAccess: 🚉 Iwashimizu Hachimangu Station → 5 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #0 yen travel autumn #shrine #shrine tour #shrine worship #airplane #Kyoto #Kyoto sightseeing #Kyoto trip

Iwashimizu Shrine ⛩️ 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 A sub-shrine of Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine, located halfway up the back approach to the shrine. The deity worshipped is Amenominakanushi no Mikoto. The "Iwashimizu" in Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine is said to be due to the fact that there has been a strange sacred spring on Otokoyama since ancient times. It is said that the name was given even before the establishment of Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine. The water source, which was originally located around the Higashi-somon Gate, was cut off by repeated construction. The water vein remains in the current Iwashimizu Well, and continues to flow without drying up. It is said that water is drawn from this sacred spring every morning and offered to the gods.

Am I the only one who wants to go cherry blossom viewing when the cold winter ends and cheerful spring arrives? Maybe it's because I was born in spring, but when spring arrives, I feel like I'm waiting for something new.

It's great to lay out a plastic sheet and bring a simple tent. Lunch boxes and beer, cherry blossom viewing, naps, badminton.
