This Dragon Boat Festival, I visited the Toyama Prefectural Museum of Art, an ideal destination for art enthusiasts. The museum showcases a variety of contemporary art pieces, immersing visitors in a sea of creativity. Today, the museum hosted a special art exchange event, attracting numerous artists and visitors from different places. Everyone shared inspiration and discussed artworks in a lively and friendly atmosphere. Such exchanges not only deepen the understanding of art but also allow me to experience cultural diversity. Spending the Dragon Boat Festival at the Toyama Prefectural Museum of Art and participating in the art exchange has brought me plenty of inspiration and reflection. Whether admiring the artworks or joining the activities, this place has become a unique venue for celebration.

#springitinerary Looking for spring vibes that hit different? the Spring Quartet in Toyama is where it’s at. Imagine walking along a river lined with hundreds of cherry blossoms, then turning around to catch bright yellow rapeseed flowers and colorful tulip fields, all with snow-capped mountains chilling in the background. It’s like nature threw a wild color party, and you’re invited. The best time to visit is early to mid-April when everything’s in full bloom. Bonus points if you catch the evening when they light little bonfires among the cherry trees, super magical and cozy. Getting there is easy, there’s a shuttle from the nearby train station during peak season, or you can drive and park nearby. Honestly, just bring your camera and a snack, then soak up those seriously stunning spring views. It’s the kind of place that makes you wanna slow down and just enjoy the moment.

#springitinerary you're craving those pink petal vibes but want to skip the crowds, Shio-no-Senbon Sakura in Toyama is your springtime sweet spot. Imagine walking along a peaceful riverside trail lined with a thousand cherry trees, yeah, it's as dreamy as it sounds. The whole path turns into a soft pink tunnel, and it’s perfect for a chill stroll, slow bike ride, or just laying down on a blanket with snacks and soaking it all in. The best part? It’s super low-key. You won’t be shoulder-to-shoulder with a million people like at the big sakura hotspots. The blossoms usually peak mid-April, and the vibe is pure calm. It’s an easy walk from the nearby train stations or a quick drive if you’ve got wheels. Bring your camera, your favorite drink, and your spring mood, this spot’s a quiet cherry blossom wonderland.

#cherryblossom25 For this trip, I first headed to Kyoto and then went on to Toyama. Toyama was colder, and the cherry blossoms bloomed later, which made the timing perfect. However, Kyoto was so crowded, and the experience wasn’t as enjoyable as in Toyama. In Kyoto, the streets and spots were overflowing with people, especially around popular places like the Bekiri-tei cherry blossom paths and the Tōkō-bune boat ride. The atmosphere felt a bit hectic compared to the serene experience I had in Toyama. Toyama, on the other hand, offered a quieter, more peaceful sakura experience. It was less crowded, allowing me to enjoy the beauty of the cherry blossoms more intimately. Definitely a hidden gem for those looking for a calm cherry blossom experience away from the crowds! #naturalwonders

Toyama is a tourist destination with snow-covered mountains that people visit to see the ice walls. If it's difficult to go to Europe next time, I'll visit Toyama, the Switzerland of Asia! #HongKongFlightEvent

Toyama Prefecture_Oiwayama Nisseki (Oiwaya Fudo) 163 Oiwa, Kamiichi-cho, Nakaniikawa-gun, Toyama Prefecture 930-0463 Oiwayama Nisseki-ji Temple, the head temple of the Shingon sect, is an ancient temple said to have been founded by Gyoki in 725. The five rock-carved Buddha statues, designated as important cultural properties by the country, are the statue of Acala, two children (Konkaradoji and Seitakadoji), the statue of Amida Nyorai, and the statue of a monk. Among them, the statue of Acala (height approx. 3.5m) is considered one of the best rock-carved Buddha statues in the country due to its size, beauty, and state of preservation. The water that springs around the rock of Acala, called "Oiwaya Fuji Water," is said to be effective in curing eye diseases, and has been designated as one of "Toyama's famous waters," and many people come to draw the water. There are six waterfalls behind the temple, and you can do ascetic training under them. It is said that it can get rid of worldly desires... And the famous local dish is Oiwa somen! It feels a little different from other somen noodles It has thin noodles and a simple, elegant taste There is often a long line Relax in the nearby hot springs♨️ We hope you will stop by when you come to Toyama.

Even in Japan, where people are serious about cherry blossoms, Toyama is a place that Koreans don't often visit, but the drive course along the coastline of Heosu and Onsen is a place of art. When the cherry blossom season comes, cherry trees that seem to be at least 100 years old form a group of cherry blossoms in the park in front of the Toyama Prefectural Library. It's a spectacular sight.... I recommend the cherry blossoms in Toyama for a small city trip. #CherryBlossomPlaces

#CherryBlossomSpots Cherry blossoms on Mt. Uayama, a famous cherry blossom spot in Japan... The cherry blossoms that cover the entire mountain are large and magnificent... The cherry blossom road drivers that run along the coastline from Toyama to the Noto Peninsula boast a wonderful scenery. The cherry blossoms are magnificent, densely packed, low on the low mountains and high on the high mountains. One of them, Mt. Uayama in Toyama City, is the best for walking and trekking to appreciate cherry blossoms.

#GourmetExploration #JapanTravelRecommendation For a gourmet restaurant in Toyama, we went to the famous franchise Tsushiro. There are Tsushiros that cost 200 yen or 300 yen for a plate of 120 yen, and there is also the famous Kuro Ramen... Ink Ramen is a famous ramen in Toyama. It is made with squid ink, so it is good for your health. I recommend that you try the conveyor belt sushi on your Toyama tour and definitely try the Kuro Ramen★

I wanted to go there... I went to Toyama on the Noto Peninsula after much difficulty. Toyama on the Noto Peninsula across the East Sea where spring begins... I've been on many pilgrimage routes, but is there another place as beautiful, scenic, and warmly sunny as Yeoji? ★★ ​​I want to try living in Toyama for a month... Listening to Ishikawa Sayuri on the Noto Peninsula. I trek here and there on the Noto Peninsula from Toyama ★★★
