【Hokkaido】Third Visit to Shikisai-no-oka

Posted on by nicklee

If you plan to visit Shikisai-no-oka,
I highly recommend scheduling it before visiting Farm Tomita.
Otherwise, after seeing Farm Tomita, you might find this place less impressive…

Shikisai no Oka has free admission, but there is a donation box at the entrance.
Below, you can buy tickets for the tractor ride to tour the park.

There is also lavender here, but not much.

The tractor ride, not many people take it.

Shikisai-no-oka now also has alpacas to see.
But you need to buy a separate ticket, which is about ¥400.

The lupines here are incredibly colorful.

These are photos of Shikisai no Oka in July~
If you’re interested, you can check out the travelogue from 2009, which has photos from September~

[Japan] 2017 Kyoto, Osaka, Nagoya, and Hokuriku Eight-Day Itinerary

Taking advantage of the New Year holiday, I embarked on my first eight-day journey from Kansai to Hokuriku. The itinerary included the night view from Abeno Harukas in Osaka, Kibune Shrine in Kyoto, the snow-covered Kinkaku-ji, Nagoya Castle, the Hida-Takayama area, the Kamikochi cable car, the illuminated Gassho Village, Kanazawa Castle, and the night illumination of Kenrokuen Garden.

[Tokushima Prefecture] Shikoku Pilgrimage First Stop – Ryozenji – The starting point of the Shikoku Pilgrimage in Japan.

Besides Sakamoto Ryoma and Udon noodles, which are well-known in Shikoku, the Shikoku Pilgrimage is also famous. The so-called pilgrimage refers to a journey of worship. The Shikoku Pilgrimage involves visiting 88 temples in the Shikoku region, all of which are sacred places related to Kobo Daishi (Kukai). Since the Heian period, ascetic monks have followed Kobo Daishi’s route to embark on a pilgrimage to these 88 temples, covering a walking distance of about 1,200 kilometers. However, nowadays, not only monks participate in the pilgrimage, but travelers also arrange such trips.

【Aomori Prefecture】Towada Art Center

I don’t have much artistic flair, nor do I have any talent in fine arts, so I really admire people who can paint and create. I’m in awe of their imagination and ability to bring their ideas to life. After seeing a bunch of century-old masterpieces at the Louvre, visiting the Towada Art Center gives me a different feeling. If you have the chance, you should definitely come and check it out! Especially during cherry blossom season, it’s highly recommended! Sorry, I got a bit off track. Well, let’s start writing the travelogue now.
