Everyone! The 2025 Japan Fireworks Festival is absolutely mind-blowing! It’s announced that every event this year will be the "largest scale ever" in history. 🎆 Fireworks Festival Viewing Tips Reserving a Spot: It’s recommended to arrive 2 hours early! Don’t believe “you can watch from anywhere casually”! Popular events are full by 4 PM, and the bigger your picnic mat, the easier it is to reserve a spot (Japanese usually use 1-meter mats). Secret tip: many Japanese people reserve spots early in the morning. 👘 Outfit: Yukata for 300 yen! But wooden clogs will kill your feet after a day... Smart me brought foldable slippers and switched shoes instantly for photos! 🚽 Restrooms: Temporary toilets have lines of 1 hour or more! Drinking less water is key... 📸 Photography: Phone photos of fireworks = blurry mess! Learn “long exposure” settings in advance or shoot videos. ❗️ Important Notes ✅ Go even if it rains: Unless it’s a typhoon or heavy storm, light rain doesn’t affect it! Actually, fewer people means a better experience~ ✅ Bring your own trash bag: Ending with water bottles and mats all over the place is a bummer... Let’s be classy fairies and carry a trash bag with us! ✅ Mosquito repellent + mat: Mosquitoes by the river are vicious! Buy “Kincho mosquito repellent patches” at drugstores and picnic mats at 100-yen shops for great value. 🍡 Night Market Guide Takoyaki, candied apples, and fried noodles are must-eats! But don’t queue at the stalls... One hour before the start, small stalls have fewer people. Buy your food and enjoy the fireworks holding your treats—super awesome! This year’s fireworks festival is said to have a metaverse collaboration, and you can even scan fireworks with AR on-site to get exclusive souvenirs! I can’t wait!! Hurry up, or you’ll have to wait ten years!! 💨💨 (P.S. Specific dates depend on the official website~ Most events update in April, so remember to check!)

I stayed here during a trip to Atami. The five private baths and sumptuous meals were the deciding factors for my visit! I traveled without a car, using public transportation, but it took about 30 minutes by bus from Atami Station to reach the inn. The inn is located deep in the mountains, so there's nothing nearby, but that actually made it a relaxing stay. 🌞 Recommended Points #1 Hot Springs ♨️ The hot springs are private 24 hours a day, so I was able to enjoy four out of the five. 🛀 The system was self-service: flip the "In Use" or "Available" sign in front of each private bath to enter! In addition to the private baths, some rooms also have their own baths. ︎👍🏻 ̖́- #2 Food They serve so much delicious food that you'll wonder, "Are they still serving food!?" Yakiniku, Funazukuri sashimi, spiny lobster...everything was delicious ♡ And it even included an hour of all-you-can-drink!! Enjoying the alcohol was amazing 😭 And best of all, the staff were incredibly friendly! I definitely want to come back here again when I visit Atami, and I highly recommend it!! #0YenTravelFebruary2025 #Atami

The Hiramatsu Atami is one of the top three hotels in Atami, the other two being Uminohana (I don't like the color scheme) and Fufu (I don't like the modern style). This hotel definitely has the best food of all the hotels I stayed at in Japan. The hotel specializes in Japanese-French fusion cuisine, which attracts many guests, and the hotel does a great job. I'll introduce the hotel's restaurant in the next post. The hotel service is very warm. Before you even get out of the car, a staff member will run out to greet you. You'll be taken to the restaurant for a welcome drink and dessert, which is a Japanese pudding and tastes good. Then you can check in at your leisure and enjoy the vacation vibe. Although the room is not very big, the layout is very reasonable, and the decoration style is a mix of Western and Japanese styles, which I like very much. I have to mention the pajamas, which are very comfortable and cute, and each person gets two sets. Dinner is served in the check-in area and is Japanese-French fusion cuisine. The food is really well fused and delicious. There is also a sommelier who speaks fluent English, which is a plus. Another highlight of the hotel is the fireworks festival. After dinner, the hotel will arrange a car to take you to the castle on the mountain to watch the fireworks. There are fewer people than on the beach, so the experience is better. The hotel has two rooms as restaurants, and breakfast is served in the other room. The eggs benedict at breakfast is good. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel. It's perfect for a one-night getaway for couples.

Speaking of Atami, it's all about eating 😋 There are so many delicious restaurants that it's hard to choose (((* ॑˘ ॑* ≡ * ॑˘ ॑*))) Among them, the most recommended is "Atami Buta-an" It's just the right size, so it's great for eating while walking 😆 I also recommend a relaxing chill time while eating the Buta-an you bought at the nearby "Atami Sun Beach" 🤍 Please buy and try it ✨ ✼••┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈••✼✼••┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈••✼ ➸Tips ︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎The "Atami Buta-an Panchoco" is only available in limited quantities per day and is only available now!! ︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎Large It's popular, so depending on the time of day, there may be a long line. ︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎There's a photo spot next to the store, so go and check it out. ︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎The baked goods are ready at different times throughout the day, so it's recommended to go at those times. ✼••┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈••✼✼••┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈••✼ ➸Recommended spot information📍Mataichian's Atami Butter An✤Address: 5-11 Tawaramoto-cho, Atami-shi, Shizuoka✤Access: Atami Station▶︎On foot✤Cost: Butter An 400 yen ✼••┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈••✼✼••┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈••✼ #0yentravelJanuary2025 #Atamitourism #foodtour #Atamitourism #Shizuoka

However, there was a period when this was applicable, and during the Christmas event, the online purchase price remained at 2500 yen. The admission fee will be 4,000 yen during the peak season, so I recommend going now during the off-season. However, since it is a garden facility, it is most beautiful during the flower blooming season, but the admission fee is the most expensive. 📍Akao Forest

The winter fireworks festival 🎆 is so beautiful❤❤❤ Thousands of fireworks bloom in the night sky! : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :

#DomesticTravelRecord I stayed at the hot spring inn "Ishinoya Atami" with a spectacular view of the sea in Atami. The entrance and rooftop have a great view of the sea. I recommend relaxing on the rooftop with a Wescom drink while watching the sunset and the sea. This time I stayed in a junior suite (twin) with sauna and hot spring, a new room that was renovated in 2023. There is a sauna in the room! You can also get aroma for the sauna, which is good to use when you do a loyly. The nice scent is soothing. There was also a cold bath. You can see the sea from the hot spring in the room and the view is great! It's not an open-air bath, so it's not affected by the weather. The room is very spacious and you can run around. I always do YouTube exercises at home, but the room is spacious so I was able to do the exercises without stress. The refrigerator in the room has water, tea, Oronamin C, Pocari Sweat, beer, and a coffee maker, all for free. There are also small manju snacks. The amenities are DHC, and they have everything you need, such as face wash, lotion, cream, and cleansing, so you can go there empty-handed. The breakfast was also delicious. I'm allergic to fish, so I told them in advance and they changed the menu to suit my allergies. They were very considerate. The facility also has a library room, a relaxation room, and a table tennis room, so you can spend the whole day without getting bored. I wish I could have stayed another night.

#JapanTravel Atami visited to see fireworks!! As expected of a hot spring city, there is a large footbath in front of the station♨️ Atami seems to be a place where many Japanese people visit for vacation, and there were a lot of Japanese people on vacation when we visited!! As expected of a hot spring area, there were a lot of dairy snacks, so we walked around eating a lot...😋 Among them, I really recommend #AtamiPuding!! The interval between city buses is really long and they don't come exactly on schedule, so be careful about the time!! We also ended up returning without seeing the inside of Atami Castle😭

I've always been curious about Kiunkaku. I've always wanted to go to this sunroom! The real thing was even more luxurious and beautiful than I imagined! ---------------------------------------------------- ◆Building🏠 Kiunkaku 4-2 Showa-cho, Atami-shi, Shizuoka 413-0022 ◆Access🚶 10 minutes by bus from Atami Station ◆Price💰 610 yen ◆Reservations None ◆Photos📷 No particular restrictions ---------------------------------------------------- Retro Walk | Walking around the town in a kimono ↓Recommended for these people! -Retro lovers -Want to know where you can wear a kimono👘 -Want to spend a relaxing weekend or trip -------------------------------------------------- [Retro Walk's thoughts🕰️] "Retro Walk" started with the desire to make people feel that "old" is "beautiful" and stop to look at it. Japan has many wonderful historic buildings, but they are difficult to maintain and are often demolished. This is true not only for buildings, but also for traditional Japanese objects and techniques. I hope that this will encourage as many people as possible to reexamine the things of the past before they disappear from Japan. If you find a place that catches your eye, please take a retro stroll and relax! ---------------------------------------------------- #DomesticTravel
