Onogame A magnificent seaside viewpoint on #Sado Island 🌼⛰️🇯🇵 This is a large rock located in the northern part of Sado Island, Niigata Prefecture. The rock looks like a sea turtle. The highlight of this place is perfect for those who love nature because there is a nature trail that takes you up to the viewpoint on top of the rock, taking about 15-20 minutes. You can see the beautiful and magnificent scenery. Another highlight of this place is in late May - early June, when there is a flower called Tobishima Kanso or Daylily-like flowers, with more than 500,000 to 1,000,000 flowers blooming around Onogame Hill, creating a beautiful "carpet of golden yellow flowers" as far as the eye can see. However, when I went, it was a pity that the flowers had not bloomed yet. However, the view is still just as beautiful. This is another check-in point on Sado Island that you definitely shouldn't miss. 😍😍 #onogame #sadoisland #niigata #japan #traveljapan #engineeringtravel #travelplan #trip #naturalattractions #travelabroad

Niigata Prefecture in Japan is another destination where the natural beauty of each season is equally stunning. It also boasts traditional culture, art, various attractions, and delicious food. In spring, Niigata is adorned with vibrant cherry blossoms. During summer, people often go for picnics and camping. Autumn brings the beauty of red and orange leaves, transforming mountains, gardens, temples, and shrines into breathtaking landscapes. When winter arrives, Niigata becomes one of the snowiest prefectures in Japan, making it a place worth visiting again and again.

#aprilblooms If you’re looking for a unique spring getaway, I highly recommend visiting Echigo-Tsumari in Niigata! This area, covering Tokamachi and Tsunan towns, has been home to the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale for over 20 years. Spread across the stunning rural landscape, you’ll find incredible art installations blended beautifully with nature — it’s like walking through a living, breathing art museum! Even outside of the festival season, many artworks are permanently on display, so there’s always something to discover. The mix of mountains, rice fields, and modern art makes for an unforgettable experience! Why You Should Visit: ✔ Massive open-air art installations set in breathtaking natural surroundings. ✔ Perfect for those who love combining outdoor adventures with creative exploration. 📍Address: Echigo-Tsumari, Niigata Prefecture, Japan #Niigata #Japan #EchigoTsumari #ArtInNature #SpringInJapan

Took much trouble and a torturous one and a half hour standing ride on the Hayabusa to get here. Did not expect to have so much tourist in the late morning, else I qould have set off earlier from Tokyo. So go early if you're planning a day trip from Tokyo like me! Anyways, came all the way here for this amazing sake-vending machine experience! For ¥1000, you'll get an ochoko(sake cup) and 5 tokens. Depending on the type of sake you picked, insert the amount of tokens required to dispense the sake into the cup. You can purchase more tokens at the cashier for ¥100 per token if you would like to try more. Fotunately, I went to try this at noon when no one else drinks in the middle of the day. When I came back in the evening, there was a freaking long queue and I won't even get to enter at all. The 5 sakes that I tried were of the good value and taste for single coin each. There are alao plenty of other merchandise in the store. This sake vending machines is in the closed off area within the store. Will definitely be back for more! #japantravels #niigata #sake #japanesesake #vendingmachine #ponshukan #ochoko #junmai #junmaiginjo #tokubetsujunmai
