See snow in June? The Japanese Snow Walls are open!

🌟 The Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route in the Hokuriku region of Japan opens every year on April 15, and this year is no exception! The most stunning sight, the Yuki-no-Otani Snow Walls in Murodo, towering at 20 meters high, are only open until June 25. Miss it, and you'll have to wait a whole year!😱 ❗【👇Click below to see the spectacular snow walls in Japan】❗ 🧊【Yuki-no-Otani Snow Walls】 The Yuki-no-Otani Snow Walls reach a height of 20 meters and are the only place on Earth where humans can walk through such massive snow formations. The best time to visit is during the two-month opening period. This year, thanks to human intervention, the snow path is even smoother, making it easy for both the elderly and children to experience the awe-inspiring ice walls! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 🚆【Transportation and Route】 Tateyama Kurobe is located on the border of Toyama and Nagano prefectures, about a 1.5-hour drive from Kanazawa.
