Shinsaibashi

Luckily, it snowed a little, and the temperature was around 2 or 3 degrees Celsius. A waterproof jacket and shoes would have been more suitable. The train experience was also very special, with relaxing scenery along the way. The coffee on the train was delicious. Our tour guide was from Taiwan, so she was easy to communicate with and very considerate. She also tried her best to explain the sights and gave my child a birthday gift and blessings. Thank you for giving her an unforgettable birthday.

What impressed me most about this trip was Amanohashidate and the Ine boathouses. Enjoying one of Japan's three most famous scenic spots under a heavy snowfall was truly a unique experience. The boat trip and seagull feeding at the Ine boathouses reminded me of my happy memories of feeding seagulls in Matsushima long ago. Being able to enjoy a delicious abalone meal was also a great value. A special thank you to our guide, Mingming, for his detailed explanations; he must have worked hard to understand the history of the places we visited, which gave me a deep understanding of everything. The driver's smooth driving was also commendable. I will definitely participate again next time.

I visited Katsuo-ji Temple this time. The little Daruma dolls were so cute! Unfortunately, we had to rush to make our wishes, so the rest of the photo and stamp collection was very rushed. We didn't even have time to look at the souvenirs, which was a real shame! Kiyomizu-dera Temple was beautiful, and Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka were great for exploring! The Rilakkuma bears in Arashiyama were adorable! The bamboo forest photos don't do it justice; it was absolutely gorgeous! The tour guide was fantastic; they explained everything and even told us what good food to eat. I hope to visit Katsuo-ji Temple again next time for a pilgrimage to fulfill my vows!
