In the early morning, the first rays of sunlight make Mount Fuji look like it's covered in a golden veil, peaceful and magnificent. This time, I stayed at a hot spring hotel by Lake Kawaguchi. 🏨 I was deeply attracted by its unique style that combines traditional and modern design. The hotel is in a great location, and you can enjoy the magnificent view of Mount Fuji from your room, the restaurant, or the public areas. 👍 Some rooms also offer beautiful views of the surrounding gardens, allowing you to experience the harmonious beauty of nature from different angles and "see Mount Fuji from your bed." 🍽️ Dining experience: The room rate includes two meals: Breakfast is a traditional Japanese set meal 🍱, served from 7:30 to 8:30. There are many options for dinner, including exquisite kaiseki cuisine, A5 wagyu shabu-shabu, and crispy tempura. 🍤 Please note that dinner is served at a strict time, and is not available after 18:50. We recommend planning your meal time in advance. 🎉 Anniversary service: This hotel is perfect for celebrating anniversaries. Whether it's a wedding anniversary, New Year celebration, or a child's birthday, the hotel will prepare a small gift 🎁, such as special Yamanashi wine, a Mount Fuji-shaped signature board, and a commemorative photo. If you stay on your birthday, you can also order a special Mount Fuji-shaped cake 🍰 to add a sense of ceremony and surprise.

#TravelJapan Yokkaichi or Yokkaichi is a small city located in the south of Nagoya, about 30 minutes from Nagoya by train. Yokkaichi is an industrial city with factories on both sides of the road. At night, the lights are beautiful and very photogenic. Yokkaichi is a city that many photographers want to visit. In addition, the beautiful photo spot of Yokkaichi that we like is the side of the train station, which is a river with cherry trees lining both sides of the road. There are not many tourists. We can come here to take pictures, especially when the train passes by, to get a beautiful background. In addition, Yokkaichi is also close to Matsusaka, a city that produces good beef. Therefore, Yokkaichi has many quality wagyu restaurants. Let's go.

| A City Where Time Folds. 🌉 Prologue: A Journey Through Folded Time and Space Nestled between Nagoya and Kyoto lies Yokkaichi, a small city where time seems to fold. The silhouettes of port cranes in the morning overlap with the industrial neon lights at night. The vermilion torii gates of ancient shrines contrast with the glass curtain walls of postmodern museums. While not a popular tourist destination in Japan, Yokkaichi uses its "folded" form to blend industrial heritage, natural havens, and local life into the sea breeze of Mie Prefecture. 🏙️ Act 1: Cyberpunk Twilight in Industrial Heritage Taisho Bridge & Cosmo Oil Refinery Night View Standing on the skeletal Taisho Bridge, you'll witness the daily routine of cargo ships during the day. At night, the neon lights of the oil refinery suddenly bloom on the horizon, with orange-red lights pulsating along the pipelines, as if stepping into a cyberpunk movie scene. Sarusaka Park Observation Deck Climb the wooden boardwalk at the top of the park to overlook the silver-gray mechanical matrix of the factory area during the day. In the evening, wait for a "fire and iron" sunset and watch the afterglow turn the chimneys into a pinkish-purple. 🌸 Act 2: Seasonal Love Letters Between Mountains and Sea Nanzansou Park's Sakura Theater In March, 1,200 Yoshino cherry trees dye the hillside into pink snow. Girls in kimonos gently sway their fans under the trees, and petals float into the nearby residential gardens with the breeze. Kasumigaura Ryokuchi Park's Water Mirror World Rent a swan boat and row to the heart of the lake, where the steel forest of the factory area and the residential buildings on the opposite bank are intertwined in the reflection, like a hazy reality in Monet's paintings. Showa Happiness Village's Seasonal Flower Calendar Enjoy plum blossoms in spring, lotus in summer, osmanthus in autumn, and camellias in winter. The village's "Flower Calendar Hall" displays Japanese philosophy of "living in harmony with the seasons" with century-old farming tools. 🍱 Act 3: Mie Prefecture's Flavors on the Port's Tongue Seafood Bowl and Industrial Aesthetics At "Umisachi Shokudo" in Yokkaichi Port, freshly caught yellowtail sashimi carries the salty freshness of the sea. Paired with miso soup simmered in a Banko-yaki earthenware pot, the rough pottery collides with the delicate fish fat to create a unique flavor. Kabuse Tea and Artisan Craftsmanship Experience Kabuse tea at the century-old tea shop "Kawakitaen," where matcha powder foams into fine bubbles as it's whisked with a bamboo chasen. Pair it with a "Yokkaichi Senbei" to let the slightly bitter tea aroma and brown sugar caramelization reconcile on your taste buds. 🏡 Act 4: Living in the Seams of Folded Time and Space Sanco Inn Yokkaichi Ekimae A capsule hotel a 3-minute walk from Kintetsu Station. The grandpa at the front desk will recommend "hidden ramen shops" in broken English, and the aroma of braised pork wafts from behind the noren of the late-night diner. Hotel Nagashima Spa Yuami A hot spring hotel on the Kuwana coastline, with an open-air bath facing the Pacific Ocean. Soak in the misty hot water at night and watch the lights of Yokkaichi Port flicker on the opposite shore. 📅 The Art of Folding Travel Time March-April: Cherry blossom season + industrial night view double play, stroll through Hanamikoji wearing a light haori. September-November: Clear skies after the typhoon season, perfect for cycling along the coastline and factory ruins. December: The year-end light show turns Taisho Bridge into a blue galaxy, and the melody of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" rings through the streets. 🚄 Transportation Folding Guide From Osaka: Kintetsu Limited Express "Nagoya Line," 55 minutes direct, where office workers in suits and sketching teenagers with easels share the morning light in the train car. From Nagoya: JR "Kansai Main Line," 30 minutes, with rice fields and shell-shaped factories of Mie Prefecture flashing past the train window. Epilogue: The Unsolved Poem of a Folded City Tie an ema under the century-old cedar tree at Suwa Shrine, then turn around and walk into the "Petroleum Pavilion" of the Yokkaichi Museum. Looking at the black and white photos of the oil refinery in the 1960s, you suddenly understand the magic of this small city's folded time and space—it uses the bones of industry to support the poetry of nature, allowing the past and the future to meet in the same twilight. 🌊 Yokkaichi is not the end of Japanese tourism, but the starting point for re-understanding "travel."
