Autumn in Kokeizan Eihoji Temple, Tajimi, Gifu Every corner felt like a painting. The red maples, golden leaves, and that calm reflection on the pond. It’s one of those places where time slows down for a bit. If you’re ever in Gifu during fall, this temple is worth every step. #虎渓山永保寺 #japanautumn #japantravel #autumnvibes #japanlife

I spent an afternoon wandering around Kokeizan Eihoji Temple in Tajimi, Gifu, and the autumn leaves here are unreal. Some of the maples were already red so I can imagine if all of them turned red, it would be more beautiful than what I saw. Thre are ginkgo trees that hasn’t turned yellow yet so I’m pretty sure once they turned yellow, it would look picturesque. When when you look into the pond, the reflection is stunning. It’s quiet, it’s Zen, and it definitely made me stop and just soak it in. A perfect fall escape from the usual hustle. #虎渓山永保寺 #autumnleaves #japanautumn #zengarden #japantravel

Just tried this ORYZAE Granola that is made with rice-koji and zero sugar, so it’s sweet, crunchy and light without the guilt. Perfect for breakfast or a snack when you want something tasty and good for you. I tried all three flavors: Plain (simple & crisp), Chocolate (nice taste of healthy chocolate ), and Strawberry (sweet & tangy). #oryzae #granola #healthyfood #FoodTok #breakfast

For around ¥2,000 you get to try over 30 Korean dishes and about 10 kinds of desserts in an all-you-can-eat buffet style. The place feels like a lively Korean street-food market, with chicken wings in various flavors, kimbap, tteokbokki, and even a ramen-bar where you make your own. Great value, fun atmosphere, and a must for anyone who loves Korean food or wants a big-tasting experience in Aichi. #韓#韓国屋台ペブロf#FoodTokk#koreanbuffeta#allyoucaneatj#japanfood

During autumn, this is how most places in Japan look like. Taken near Senmi Shikizakura no Sato in Toyota on November 19 2024. #autumn #japan #japantravel #fyp #nature

Heavens Sonohara in Achi Village truly lives up to its name. From colorful flower paths and peaceful benches to views that stretch beyond the clouds, every moment feels like a gentle escape. It’s not just a destination. It’s a feeling of calm above the world. #heavenssonohara #japantravel #nagano #naturelover #japanlife

Went to top of Heavens Sonohara and when I looked down the mountains, it was covered with cloud and fog feeling like I’m at the top of the world. The gondola ride takes you high into the mountains, then you’re surrounded by forest trails, wildflowers, and those breathtaking views of the Southern Alps. If you need a place where nature makes you pause and view that makes you feel like you’re looking at the world from the top, this is it. #nagano #nature #heavenssonohara #japannature #enjoylife

Found this Vietnamese restaurant called “New Sai Gon” in Gifu when I was driving. So, I decided to try out the food. It’s pretty tasty for me. The ambience is pretty nice. I get to try something different such as the spring rolls. Give it a try if you’re feeling like Vietnamese food around Gifu. #vietnamesefood #FoodTok #foodiejapan #gifu #japaneats

Tucked away in the forest just outside Tajimi, Cafe de Dolce surprised me with its peaceful vibe and sweet treats. After winding up a narrow road through the trees, I found a café where you can sip tea, enjoy fresh bakery items, and watch the little stream beside your table. If you want a slow-down, quiet spot in Gifu where the cupcakes and atmosphere are both worth it, this is the one. #cafededolce #cafe #japanfoodie #naturecafe #japancafe

Just strapped on the TELESIN Adjustable Backpack Mounting Bracket for a walk and wow, the POV view is next level. The bracket fits right on the shoulder strap, holds my action camera steady, and the 360° adjustment makes capturing motion so much smoother. Whether you’re hiking, biking, or vlogging your travel, this mount keeps your hands free and your footage stable #cameraaccessories #telesinmount #vlogsetup #favorites #telesin

Denny’s is one of my usual breakfast spots when I feel like I want to eat something different than the usual Japanese breakfast. The French toast is so good. The breakfast set is very well balanced for me. And the drink bar that is included is a good plus. #dennys #breakfast #FoodTok #japanfoodie #japaneats

All the different character plush toys in Donki. Sanrio, Mario, Mofusand, Crayon Shin Chan, Godzilla and so on. There are more than the ones in the video. #japanfinds #onlyinjapan #donquijote #japanvibes #japanlife

Yakiniku heaven in the middle of Sakae. I was searching around for a nice one until I found Amiyakitei’s all-you-can-eat yakiniku. For just 3,500 yen, you get unlimited grilled meat, a drink bar, and even dessert! The quality was surprisingly good for the price, and the vibe made it perfect for a casual night out with friends. If you love Japanese BBQ, this place is definitely worth the visit. #あみやき亭 #yakiniku #japanfoodie #FoodTok #栄

Just installed the SmartDevil SmartPull Box screen protector on my iPhone and I’m impressed. The 9H tempered glass feels solid without losing touch sensitivity, the oleophobic layer really helps with fingerprints, and the install was nearly bubble-free thanks to the guide frame. If you want strong protection (drops, scratches, smudges) without compromising clarity or touch, this is one to check out. #smartdevilscreenprotector #iphoneaccessories #techtok #screenprotector #iphone17pro

Spent the day exploring Sakushima Island in Aichi, and honestly, it surprised me. The island is small but filled with random art pieces everywhere like the famous Nap House where everyone takes pictures, and the Seagull Parking Lot that moves with the wind. It’s better to rent a bike so that you can move freely and faster to the art spots. It’s peaceful, photogenic, and kind of feels like time slows down here. If you’re into quiet places, local art, and small island vibes, Sakushima is worth a visit. #sakushima #japantravel #island #artisland #natureandart

A riverside escape surrounded by trees, mountains, and the sound of flowing water. We grilled, swam, sat by the river, and just… breathed. No rush. Just sunshine, fresh air, and simple moments that feel like summer. If you’re looking for a hidden spot in the Japanese countryside to reset — this is it. #river #kawasemi #summervlog #nature #photo #naturephotography #countryside #natureescape #gifu #japan #riverside #weekend #岐阜 #川遊び #川

Camping, bbq and a river for you to swim in- all in one spot.

Perfect for a chill weekend with friends and family. Have you ever heard of or been to this hidden spot? #kawasemi #camping #swimming #bbq #nature #river #Summer #japan #gifu #岐阜 #川遊び #夏 #川 #fyp #川瀬見 #tiktokjapan
