Hidden gameplay in early spring in Kansai! You can touch the deer while staying in the snow house.

【Day 1: Winter romance in Shirakawa-go】 ❄️At 6 o'clock in the morning, I went to Shirakawa-go's Gassho-style B&B Shimizu and was woken up by the warm charcoal-fired bed! The moment the wooden lattice window was opened——! The snow wall piled up to the eaves like a cream cake, and pink morning mist floated out of the chimney of the grandma's house opposite. It was the scene of the Japanese version of the "Snow Country" reality show! 📸Photography Tips: ① Wearing a bright coat, standing under the thatched eaves and looking back ②Leave a "heart-shaped" footprint barefoot in the snow ③Capture the warm light melting the snow on the glass windows inside the house [Day 2: Uji Matcha is so sweet] 🍵I took a special trip to Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture by JR train, and came across the century-old shop "Ippodo" on the corner. As the cold matcha ice cream slid across my tongue, the grandma next door handed me the secret recipe with a smile: "You need to add Uji tea powder to awaken the dormant matcha soul!" 💡Hidden way to eat: ① Ask the store clerk to sprinkle 5g more golden tea powder ② Top with dark honey caramel sauce ③ Use a bamboo spoon to draw a deer pattern on the ice cream 【Day 3: Dotonbori's Food Street】 🌃Dotonbori looks like a glowing candy at night! The owner of the takoyaki stall performed a flamethrower show, the auntie at the crab stick shop shouted in Chinese "Do you want it spicy?", and I cried as I walked while holding a giant fried shrimp tempura - because it was so delicious that I couldn't stop eating it! 🔥Must-eat list: ✔️Osaka King Crab Tempura ✔️Exploding cheese fried pork chop ✔️Boss lady's mustard takoyaki ✔️24-hour oden stall [Day 4: Mirror training at Kinkakuji Temple] ⛩️We rushed into Philosopher's Path in the dark at 5 a.m., and the Kinkakuji Temple in the morning mist seemed to float on the emerald lake! I was planning to take a Zen photo, but ended up being surrounded by a group of middle school students in school uniforms - they were holding selfie sticks and shouting "My ex-boyfriend from Kinkakuji sent me here to find love!" 🎐Stunning moments: ①Mirror reflection at sunrise ② The "golden age" color scheme of the red leaves season ③Avoid the peak tourist hours of 10:30-11:00 [Day 5: Nara Deer Avengers] 🦌After feeding the deer at Kasuga Taisha Shrine, I encountered two male deer performing "Game of Thrones"! They were pushing against the trunks of the cherry trees and fighting each other crazily. I was holding the telephoto lens and my hands were shaking like Parkinson's. In the end, I used 500 waste films to edit this "famous scene". ⚠️Deer Prevention Guide: ① Carry some deer senbei with you as a backup ③Don’t walk with your back to the deer ④ When you are cornered, shouting "Bagayalu" will work magically! ✨Itinerary Easter Eggs: I made a bento with hot spring eggs at a B&B in Shirakawa-go Encountering a Kimono-wearing Bride at the Kyoto Tower Observation Deck I bought the out-of-print Hello Kitty limited edition cookies at Osaka Station
