A little throwback to the beautiful kochia at Hitachi Seaside Park 🍂❤️

Swaying gently in the sea breeze, the perfectly rounded kochia create a landscape that looks almost like a painting.

Though they grow together to form a stunning sea of red, each little bush retains its own distinct shape, creating a beautiful harmony of color, nature, and careful cultivation. 🍃🎨

Some moments in nature are worth cherishing again and again. 🍁✨

🍱 Shokujidokoro Nagai | A Cozy Japanese Restaurant in Tomobe

On my day off, an unexpected change of plans led me to this lovely local restaurant!

Shokujidokoro Nagai mainly serves teishoku (set meals), offering nutritious, well-balanced meals.

I ordered Tenju (天重), crispy tempura of large shrimp and fresh vegetables served over rice with a sweet-and-savory soy-based sauce. The combination was absolutely delectable! The rice was especially delicious, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor.

The udon, macaroni salad, and Japanese pickles were wonderful, too. 🍚✨

Everything had that gentle, comforting taste you’d expect from a Japanese home-cooked meal. Simple, heartwarming, and absolutely delicious!

I’d love to come back and try their other dishes, too.

What made this place truly special was its warm, cozy atmosphere. The natural scent of wood made me feel like I was dining in a traditional Japanese home. 🏡✨

📍 Access: 5-minute walk from JR Tomobe Station
🚗 Parking: Available
🕒 Opening hours: 11:00–16:00 (last order at 14:30)

Highly recommended for delicious Japanese food and home-style flavors in a warm and welcoming atmosphere! 🍱💕

Amabiki Kannon Temple 🌿 | A Quiet Beauty in Ibaraki

It wasn’t the season of blooming hydrangeas or a day of celebration, and not the peak of autumn leaves, but Amabiki Kannon Temple still had its own quiet charm, rich in history and spirituality.

I was fascinated by the Jizō statues, each adorned with different colors and patterns. Some facts: Jizō, known as Kṣitigarbha in Sanskrit, is a bodhisattva who protects the vulnerable, especially children and travelers.

Although I missed the peacocks and goats, I saw all the other animals roaming freely around the temple grounds! 🦆🐓🪿 It was so lovely to see them sharing this peaceful space, reflecting Buddhism’s compassion for all living beings.

You can also explore some Japanese souvenirs and local products in Ibaraki.

Sometimes, a place’s beauty lies not in grand events, but in quiet moments that remind us to live with kindness. 🌸
