A Scenic Paradise Surrounded by Nature—Kamikochi

Kamikochi is a special place where you can truly enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the Japanese Alps. The clear flow of the Azusa River and the majestic view of the Hotaka Mountain Range spread out before you, creating a picturesque beauty. The view from Kappa Bridge is particularly stunning, and I was soothed by the clear air and the sound of the water. Walking along the promenade, you can enjoy the tranquility that you can't experience in the city, with the chirping of birds resonating in the beautiful wetlands and forests. The seasonal landscapes are also captivating, with new greenery, autumn leaves, and snowy scenery, offering different kinds of beauty no matter which season you visit. As a tourist destination in harmony with nature, great efforts are made to protect the environment, making it a precious place of healing for visitors. It is a place I would definitely like to visit again.
