From winter to summer, Japan has a different flavor

2024 Travel Journal: Japan Edition 🇯🇵✈️ I went once in winter and once in summer, half for travel and half for work. Here's a record 📸 🌄 Kamakura: More than just the setting for Slam Dunk What impressed me the most was Chasing the sunset at Enoshima Beach in winter, super romantic 💕 I also went to the hot springs on Enoshima ♨️, a winter must-have. In summer, I went to Hase-dera Temple in Kamakura to see the hydrangeas 🪻 Japanese garden landscape, overlooking the Kamakura coastline 🌊 Sitting on the Enoden, you can see different colors of flowers on both sides of the track. 🌊 Ibaraki: A niche Japanese seaside destination with a unique charm in winter You can make a day trip from Tokyo, and there aren't many people. If you have time, you can stay overnight and watch the sunrise the next day 🌅 The Oarai Coast Park here is also a beach in summer. The shrine ⛩️ on the reef is a great photo spot. But if you take the bus in Ibaraki, you need to check the schedule in advance. The intervals between buses are long. 🌸 Hakone: Take a photo of a lifetime at the Peace Torii A two-day, one-night trip, staying at a favorite hot spring hotel Soaking in the outdoor hot springs is perfect for relaxing, and it's one of my favorite vacation spots. The scenery of Lake Ashi, I would be willing to stroll around from morning to night. Take the pirate ship 🚢 and you can take photos of Mount Fuji 🗻 if the weather is good. 🏡 Accommodation In Tokyo, we mostly stayed in homestays. It's really hard to find a hotel with a relatively good location and a lower price, they're all so expensive 😂 The homestay experience is great, clean and cozy, with complete amenities and high cost performance 👍
