How are you doing all?
This is YUKI from Sakura Hostel Asakusa.
Today, I am going talk about THE HAKONE OPEN-AIR MUSEUM.
I have been there a few time because there are a number of interesting statues.
Even if you do not know about arts or statues, you will able to enjoy this place for sure.

Look at this picture.

Can you find a statue that lay down on the grass?
I don't understand why the artist made this, but I do not care because I like the statue a lot.

What about this?

I have no idea what this one is.

My favorite statue is this.



This is so weird, but I like it.

I recommend this place if you want to see more weird statues.

Hi ya!

When travelling, how do you spend your time?

Checking in earlier at least 1 or 2 hour is necessary to board you know,

And then?

Just to take a seat for wifi till boarding??

Informed there're loads of places to fun, especially at Tokyo International Airport

a.k.a. Haneda Airport where I recently droped in to travel:)

The international terminal opened October 2010 invites you to drop in

EDO KO-JI on 4th floor and TOKYO POP TOWN on 5th floor.

TOKYO POP TOWN on 5th offers you to purchase many Japanese toys or snacks

for souvenirs as if you're walking a town in Tokyo.

And you also can walk "Haneda Nihonbashi" modeled on

"Nihonbashi" in Tokyo, where used to be a main departure place for travel at Edo period.

Nice to see and walk this kind of wooden bridge in the airport, isn't it? :D

And 4th floor, EDO KO-JI desigened as a street of Edo

stands loads of Japanese restaurents like Ramen, Sushi, Udon, Oden etc. side by side

as well as souvenir shops.

Served a quite good dishes will def satisfy you as your last meal in Japan before departure.

Just even walking around would be fun.

So if you'd catch a flight from Haneda Airport.

why wouldn't you arrive there much earlier than usual?

Would entertain you :)

See ya!

Hello everyone !


This is Tada from Sakura Hostel Asakusa.


I've been to the yokohama stadium for enjoy the Japanese baseball game !


Went to the Yokohama DeNA Baystars vs Hiroshima Toyo Carp


game was pretty impressed with the venue.



I attended a Baystars game at yokohama stadium in Kanagawa prefecture.
The tickets were a reasonable price and the atmosphere was great.







I've been to a number of baseball stadiums and yokohama stadium is my favorite.
It's a great experience for someone who has never been to a baseball game before.







There is no better way to spend a few hours than at a baseball game.
The Baystars are doing good there is no better place to watch them than at yokohama stadium.







It's even more enjoyable lately since the Baystars have been winning !
The stadium itself is just breath taking.







This is my favorite stadium regardless if the Baystars are winning or not.
All of the various different foods available make for a brilliant day out.







There is plenty of places to get food and it's pretty easy to find your way around and find your seats.
Good selection of food and the seats all had good views of the stadium.







If you're thinking of catching a baseball game, I'd highly recommend doing it at yokohama stadium.
If you come to Tokyo, you have to come here !











Keep your glove ready !

Hello, this is Yuki. I have visited Hokkaido a few weeks ago.
I went to Otaru,Sapporo,Biei and Furano.
I like these plases. Especially, landscapes and foods were really good.
I didn't have much time to visit another plases, so I hope I come back to Hokkaido again.
Anyway, I had a good time.

Hiya!

Have you ever visited Kyoto?

Kyoto is the city where is formerly as Japan's capital more than thousand year,

and is nowadays known as one of the most famous place for sightseeing in Japan

since countless historically temples and shrines are being preserved.

Not only in Tokyo or somewhere, dropping in there is highly recommended when staying Japan.

Kyoto is very popular place even for Japanese, not only for foreiners.

And yeah, me Tokyoite also like Kyoto very much

since there're loads of places to see, where Tokyo doesn't have.

So, be introduced some recommended places in Kyoto I've visited.

This is the place you prob know, "Fushimi Inari" shrine,

one of the most popular (or could be the most popular) sightseeing place in Japan.

This is "Giou-ji" temple,

located in Arashiyama area, but far from main area keeps very quiet and calm.

And this the "The window of enlightment" of "Genko-an", temple

located in Takagamine, also a bit far from city centre but very quiet.

Brilliant, aren't they? :D

These are only part of Kyoto since there're tons of temple and shrines,

and I still have loads of places I'd like to visit and haven't yet.

So you'd be able to find your favorite places in there :)

And please be informed Sakura House Kyoto, traditional and luxury "machiya" house

can accommodate you when in kyoto.
