In early February, I went for a walk to " Ocean View Forest of Life" during my lunch break.
Leave the hotel and walk towards Shizugawa. On a clear winter day, expectations are high for the scenery on the hill.
Going up in the mood of hiking as usual, the Minamisanriku Great Buddha welcomed us as usual.
I decided to come here this time because there was a model of a completed hut on the wooden deck in the hotel lobby, so I decided to take a look at it.
Once inside, about 5 adults can enter, Lofts and lighting will be installed in the future.
And the wood used for this Utdeck is We use chestnut trees, which are rare in this area. It seems that chairs and tables will be installed in the future.
It is a view from the place that went straight ahead on this wooden deck. When the weather is nice, the sky and the sea are dazzling.
There is a biomass toilet, but please be careful as it cannot be used when there are no events.
Information and leaflets are available in the hotel lobby.
It's easy to go, so please take a walk. And enjoy the beautiful scenery of Minamisanriku.
Good day ! from Minhong

One day in mid-January, I went to Wakuya Castle Ruins Shiroyama Park.
<Wakuya Castle Ruins>
The ruins of Wakuya Castle are called Shiroyama Park, and are known as a famous place for cherry blossoms with cherry blossom trees planted. Next to the corner turret (Taikodo), there is a Wakuya Municipal Historical Museum (actually Wakuya Castle is Hirayama Castle) that imitates the castle tower. Excavated items from Wakuya are on display.
As I proceeded through Shiroyama Park, camellia flowers were in bloom on my right.
Proceeding further, you will find the red balustrade bridge.
The pond is frozen.
And beyond that, there is Wakuya Shrine.
Go through the torii gate and head to the shrine.
On the offering box(Osaisenbako), there was a panel of the zodiac signs of the year of the tiger.
On the right side, you can see many votive tablets(Ema) hanging. A wish is written.
Castle from a different angle.
The castle at night is floating in the light.
The snowy Eai River that flows beside the park is also beautiful.
[ About 50 minutes drive from Minamisanriku Hotel Kanyo ]

A fantastic view that heralds winter. Do you know " Frost smoke "?
On a sunny day when it gets colder, cold air flows into rivers and the sea, which are warmer than the outside temperature. It occurs when water vapor evaporates rapidly on the surface of the water and fog is generated.
It is the scenery on the way to work on a cold morning in November. The time is around 5:30.
Frost smoke over the Former Kitakami River.
Frost smoke on the mountain over the Sanriku Expressway.
Frost smoke before crossing the Yokoyama pass.
It's very mysterious because it looks different depending on the temperature and weather.
