Yoyogi park located right beside the famous Meiji Shrine, but it’s not as crowded as the shrine, so the you can enjoy a wonderful and quiet walk in the park. It’s even more pretty during autumn when the ginkgo trees leaves are yellow, and the maple tree have turned red. I spent a whole morning there, walked, read and even took a nap on the grass, feeling extremely recharged. Recommend everyone to take a walk here when you are visiting Meiji Shrine#autumn #Ginkgo

Hotel Crown Hills Tokuyama 2-30 Honmachi, Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture 6 minutes walk from Tokuyama Station The welcome drink was alcoholic! It was self-service.

It was conveniently located near the station, so it was a good place to stay for sightseeing in Yamaguchi, as well as for travelling to Hiroshima and Kyushu. #AccommodationReview #Yamaguchi #ShunanCity

I stopped by by car on the last day of my business trip to Tokuyama. I was able to see a variety of animals, including elephants, lions, tigers, ostriches, and zebras. Of course, there were also the red pandas, the specialty of Tokuyama Zoo. When I went, the zoo was under construction for renewal.

#東京櫻花 "Yoyogi Park is perfect for a laid-back hanami experience! Unlike other parks where space is limited, there’s plenty of room to spread out, making it ideal for picnics with friends. The mix of cherry trees and open green spaces creates a beautiful yet relaxed atmosphere. People often bring music, games, and even barbecue equipment, so it has a lively but friendly vibe. It’s conveniently located near Harajuku and Shibuya, so you can explore the city after enjoying the blossoms. Just arrive early on weekends to grab a good spot!"

It is located outside the ticket gates of JR Tokuyama Station, in the passageway between the Shinkansen and conventional line exits. It's a stand-up eatery, but the restaurant is spacious and has plenty of table seating. ▶︎ Shrimp Tempura Udon (720 yen) The noodles are thin and soft. The soup is clear and light, but I personally like this gentle taste. It's quick to eat, and it fills you up just enough, making it perfect for waiting for a train or Shinkansen.

This time, we will introduce some Instagrammable spots around Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. 🌟 ① Tokuyama Ekimae Library This is a beautiful library famous in Yamaguchi Prefecture, with a large number of colorful books lined up. 📕 The inside of the library is very spacious, so you will be able to find the book you want to read right away. There is a kids' space, so even if you are with a small child, you will not get bored. There is also a Starbucks inside the library, and the interior is very stylish. 🌟 Business hours: 9:30-22:00 Address: 📍2-28 Miyuki-dori, Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture ② Around the City Hall Bus Stop, Shunan City The streets around here are decorated with beautiful tree-lined decorations depending on the season, so it is beautiful no matter when you come! When I visited, I was able to see the magnificent rows of ginkgo trees decorated with grapes and other ornaments, as well as the glittering Christmas lights 🌟 ③Other Around the station, there are other gourmet spots such as the unusual-looking high-end bread specialty store "Kijin to Henjin" and the famously delicious udon restaurant "Teuchi Udon Kukai," where the interior is lined with the signatures of artists who have come to perform nearby. ・Weirdos and Eccentrics Address: 📍1-26-1 Honmachi, Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, 745-0036 ・Handmade Udon Kuukai Address: 📍2-26 Sakaemachi, Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, 745-0037 I stopped by these places when I went to a live performance at a venue called Shunan Cultural Hall, and I recommend this area for a short trip as it is a relaxing place to spend time. #trip #Yamaguchi #ShunanCity #Instagramworthy #Library #PhotogenicSpot #SummerShortTrip #Fountain #AutumnTrip #GinkgoTreeLinedRoad #WinterTrip #Christmas #Bakery #Udon #Sakura2024

This food stall has been operating here for 45 years. It's in Shunan City, about 300m east of the station. It's open from around 6pm until after 1am. It seems to be closed on Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays. There are several types of ramen🍜, oden🍢, grilled dishes and dozens of other menu items, so it's hard to decide. The price is 650 yen for ramen, and the other items are also reasonably priced, so you can rest assured😄 My recommendations are the curry ramen, seared Kagoshima chicken, oden skewers stewed in miso, and special fried rice, so you can complete your dinner here🤤😋

Great for postcards and stamp collectors and Japan Post is one of the best places to collect their interesting designs. You can still find standalone Japan Post in the less crowded neighbourhood and these buildings are the cutest. Within Shinjuku, nearer to yoyogi area, you can find police station and post office on the streets. These are the smaller branches, and they still provide the same services. Sometimes you can also get exclusive Japan post items such as kit-kat chocolate printed like a postcard and you can mail this back to your friends and families. #wheretogo #japan #tokyo #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

This park is located near the sea in Harumi-cho, Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, a 12-minute walk from Tokuyama Station. There are no playground equipment, but the tropical trees make for a beautiful view on a clear day, as if you were in a foreign country. It was certified as a "Japanese Night View Heritage" in August 2011, and is a representative view spot for the Shunan factory night view. With a group of petrochemical plants on the other side of the sea, the night view is beautiful, but during the day you can relax in the open park. There are restrooms and a parking lot. There is a stone lighthouse built in the Meiji period. #YamaguchiTourism

I stayed here for four nights from the end of January on a business trip. First of all, the large public bath on the first floor is very comfortable with Yuno Onsen. The room lights can also be turned off with a remote control to make it dark enough to sleep comfortably. There is also an off timer function so you don't have to leave them on all the time. There is a coffee machine in the lobby which is great!! Breakfast was a buffet but it was delicious and the COVID-19 measures were excellent. #AccommodationReview#ShunanCityYamaguchiPrefecture#RouteInnShunan
