    Read excerpt

    After staying at my parents-in-law’s home in Shiga, I had to return to Tokyo a day earlier than my family because of work.But I was given one free day in Kyoto.Shiga is so close to Kyoto, and I especially love the Okazaki area. I took the train from Shiga, changed at Yamashina, and got off at Higashiyama Station.I checked into a casual hotel near the Shirakawa River and left my bags there. It was already around 3 p.m.So I simply started walking.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="

    A Summer Journey to Ueda and Bessho Onsen (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    I went to Nagano Prefecture for the first time in a while.This time, I visited Ueda City. It takes just a little over an hour by Shinkansen from Tokyo Station, so it feels surprisingly close.From Ueda Station, I took the Ueda Electric Railway to the final stop, Bessho Onsen.As the train slowly left the city, the scenery outside the window began to change. Rice fields stretched out across the landscape, surrounded by mountains.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn
