September itinerary in Japan Day 1,2 (Miyagi Accommodation edition)

September itinerary in Japan Day 1,2 (Miyagi Accommodation edition) (Accommodation on September 26th and 27th)   In Sendai, I stayed for two nights at a “Henn na Hotel” that just opened on September 1, 2021. It was a very interesting experience and I would like to introduce it to everyone. “Henn na Hotel” is Guinness World Records certified as the world’s first hotel where robots work. https://www.hennnahotel.com/sendai-kokubuncho/concept/ First of all, in the corridor from the entrance of the hotel to the front desk, projection mapping such as phoenix that move like flying in the corridor and Zuihoden welcomes you. Already, I feel really excited. There are no people at the front desk of the hotel, and “holograms of light” such as Date Masamune and dinosaurs welcome guests. Check-in is completed by simply typing your name on the check-in terminal. Check-in was very smooth. I sent luggage such as clothes and power cords to the hotel in advance to enjoy the “luggage-free trip”. You can pick up your luggage by calling the staff in the room behind the front desk. When you call the staff, the background turns red, and Date Masamune and the dinosaurs are in a hurry. Henn naread moreSeptember itinerary in Japan Day 1,2 (Miyagi Accommodation edition)

Matsushima Island Tour Boat 7. Fukuura Island 8. Kanrantei 9. View of Matsushima Bay from Shin-tomiyama   On the second day of Miyagi prefecture, I visited sightseeing spots around Matsushima such as Zuiganji Temple (main hall, kuri and corridor), which is a national treasure. The tourist spots were packed in a small space, and it was easy to take a walk as expected.   1. Shiogama Shrine (10 minutes walk from JR Hon-Shiogama station, there is a long staircase to the shrine, so I think you should allow some time.) Shiogama Shrine has been revered as the Tohoku guardian, Mutsunokuni Ichinomiya. It is a national important cultural property. The date of construction of Shiogama Shrine is not clear, but its origin dates back to before the Nara period. Personally, I really like Shiogama Shrine. Next time, I wanted to come back to Miyagi prefecture when I came to travel. The atmosphere in the shrine’s precincts was unique, and I felt a sacred atmosphere. There are 202 steps on Omotesando (Otokozaka),read moreSeptember itinerary in Japan Day 2 (Miyagi Day 2)

Mutsu-Kokubunji Yakushido   About a month ago, I proposed a September itinerary aimed at eating seasonal fish and shellfish and local cuisine. I have actually traveled the itinerary proposed from September 26th (Sun) to October 4th (Mon), so I will report on it. First, from Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture on the first day (September 26th). In conclusion, on the first day, I was able to travel according to the itinerary proposed last time. However, it needs to be fine-tuned. https://edokagura.com/en/local-cuisine/377/ First of all, the arrival time of “Loople Sendai”, which goes around the sightseeing spots in Sendai city, may be delayed depending on the traffic conditions. Therefore, we found that we should act with a little more time than the schedule we proposed. In the proposed itinerary, I proposed to start Sendai station and return to Sendai station in about two and a half hours, but it is better to go around in about three to three and a half hours. I went around the itineraryread moreSeptember itinerary in Japan Day 1 (Miyagi Day 1)

October itinerary idea in Japan (Eat all seasonal seafood and local dishes)   Table of contents Introduction 1.Ishikawa Prefecture 2.Fukui prefecture 3.Kyoto Prefecture 4.Hyogo prefecture   Introduction As an itinerary idea for October, we propose a route of 7 nights and 8 days from Ishikawa prefecture → Fukui prefecture → Kyoto prefecture → Hyogo prefecture. We will report the detailed itinerary (railways / buses, timetables, fares) for October after actually going to the site. Nagasaki Prefecture (8 types of seafood) is ranked first, Hokkaido (7 types) is ranked second, and Shimane Prefecture (6 types) is ranked third among the prefectures with the highest catches and types of fish and shellfish that are in season in October. Ishikawa prefecture, Shizuoka prefecture, and Hyogo prefecture (5 types) were in 4th place. Nagasaki Prefecture is considering adopting it for the itinerary idea in November, so this time we will adopt Ishikawa Prefecture and Hyogo Prefecture, which are geographically close to each other, from the top prefectures. If you travel to Ishikawa, Fukui, Kyoto, and Hyogo prefectures in October, the seasonal seafood, local dishes, and local popular dishes that we can eat are as follows. We can eat so many seasonal seafood and localread moreOctober itinerary idea in Japan (Eat all seasonal seafood and local dishes)

After narrowing down the travel destinations by “seafood season”, how should “elimination of uncertainty” be realized? In fact, uncertainty has already been greatly reduced at the stage of narrowing down the travel destination options. At least, we’ve decided where to go and what to eat. In particular, because we are narrowing down by “seafood season”, it is almost certain that we will achieve the greatest purpose of the trip, “eating delicious food”. However, uncertainty has not been completely resolved when traveling. This is because the uncertainty in terms of travel execution, such as which tourist spot to go to and which transportation to use, has not been resolved. Now, we will explain how to resolve our own uncertainty in terms of which tourist spot to go to. In the first place, the uncertainty in creating an itinerary is “caused by inaccurate or inadequateread moreHow to create a Japanese itinerary that won’t fail No.3

Of course, how to narrow down your travel destination options depends on your interests. People who want to go to a specific place such as a theme park are not eligible here because they have narrowed down their travel destinations from the beginning. Here are some ways to help more people. It is a methodology for those who vaguely want to go on a trip. How do you decide where to travel? I think that you choose your travel destination from various perspectives, such as the tourist destination you want to go to, the hot springs you want to go to, the hotel / ryokan you want to go to, and the food you want to eat.

Lunch   As the 8th day of the itinerary idea in September (3rd day in Hokkaido), we introduced sightseeing in Sapporo city. Autumn is also a wonderful season for Biei, so I would like to introduce Biei as an extra edition. If you’ve been to Sapporo many times, it might be a good idea to go to Biei. A day trip from Sapporo is possible, but the return trip to Haneda Airport is overwhelmingly more convenient from Asahikawa Airport than from New Chitose Airport. If you move to Asahikawa after enjoying the night view of Sapporo on the 7th day, the morning on the 8th day will be easier, so sightseeing in Biei will be easier. However, the tour of the “Biei View Bus” that we would like to recommend has been canceled from August 27th to September 30th to prevent the spread of COVID-19 infection. You can rent a bicycle to visit the tourist spots. For rental bicycles, we recommend renting an electrically power assisted bicycle because there are many hillsread moreSeptember Itinerary Idea in Japan Day 8 (Hokkaido Day 3 Extra Edition)

I think it is more efficient to rent a bicycle around Hiraizumi Station. If we go to Takkoku no Iwaya (about 6km from Hiraizumi Station) or Genbikei (about 9km from Hiraizumi Station), there is a distance, so I think we should rent an electrically power assisted bicycle. The time required below is an approximate time for a rental cycle. After arriving at JR Hiraizumi Station, it will start around 9:00 AM. If we don’t go to Takkoku no Iwaya or Genbikei Gorge, we can go around sightseeing spots without a rental cycle by taking the patrol bus “Runrun” from Hiraizumi Station. The one-day ticket is Yen 450. However, from April 17th to November 7th, 2021, it operates only on weekends and holidays. https://hiraizumi.or.jp/en/index.html   1.read moreSeptember Itinerary Idea in Japan Day 3 (Iwate Day 1 AM)

September Itinerary Ideas in Japan (Eat all seasonal seafood and local dishes)   Table of contents 1.Eat delicious food at a delicious time 2.The greatest stresses in life is travel planning 3.Three itinerary rules   1.Eat delicious food at a delicious time Over the next two weeks, we will propose a September itinerary idea to “eat delicious food at a delicious time.” The reason I propose an itinerary idea is that when I traveled, I had many troubled experiences because I didn’t know how to travel between the tourist spots I wanted to visit, the travel time, and the fare. Even if tourist spots are listed in travel guidebooks and the website of the Tourism Bureau, it is rare that details such as how to move between spots are written. In particular, it is extremely rare to post information on how to move across prefectures. For this reason, I wanted to eat up all the seasonal fish and shellfish and suggest how to travel. Until now, we have proposed “when”, “where”, “what”, and what to eat, using the “season of fish and shellfish” as a starting point, but in the future, we will add “how” to the itinerary (Travel route)read moreSeptember Itinerary Ideas in Japan (Eat all seasonal seafood and local dishes)
