Hello, everyone! It’s Marcus here again.
For this blog post entry, I will be writing about what I got up to during the week of the recent Obon holiday.
Firstly, I caught a bus from Osaka to Yokohama. I opted to disembark from the bus here, rather than in Tokyo, because I wanted to see a special third-anniversary event for a popular Pokémon-themed mobile game at Landmark Plaza and Minato Mirai. There were giant sleeping Pokémon models inside the two malls, as well as other popular Pokémon characters to take photos with. They also had a shop with event-exclusive goods on sale, but unfortunately, tickets were required to enter the shop – which I was not aware of beforehand. In addition, there were also original drinks available to everyone for purchase, but I decided not to buy any. Instead, I went to a fast-food restaurant, where another Pokémon collaboration was running concurrently! I chose to eat a Pokémon-themed burger while I charged my phone.
That evening, I caught the train through Tokyo and into Tsukuba, in Ibaraki Prefecture. A friend of mine from secondary school lives there with his girlfriend, so I stayed with them for a few nights. While I was there, we caught up on each other’s lives, went shopping, and climbed Mt. Tsukuba. The latter was worth the effort, but very difficult for me – I’m glad that I managed to get to the top, but I am not so sure that I would do it again! Fortunately, the journey back down to the base was not so arduous, as we chose to ride the cable car on our descent.
After Tsukuba, I returned to Tokyo for a day to do some shopping. The morning after that, I made the trip up to Nikko. It was my first time ever visiting the city, so it was very exciting to have finally managed to see it with my own eyes. One of the first landmarks that I was able to visit was the Shinkyo Bridge – I had seen many photographs of this site in the past, long before ever coming to Japan, so it felt particularly satisfying to have visited yet another famous Japanese attraction during my stay in the country.
Following my viewing of the bridge, I then continued my excursion towards Nikko Tosho-gu, a shrine dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu. Aside from the aforementioned historical figure, the site is also associated with an image of a sleeping cat, carved above a gate within the shrine’s grounds. In addition, the area also has a connection to the legend of the three wise monkeys – often referred to in English as ‘see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil’.
Finally, to round out my journey, I ended up in Shirakawa-go. This is a place that I had been meaning to visit for many years, preferably in the winter after heavy snowfall, but I decided that seeing the area in summer would also be a pleasant experience. The architecture of the thatched-roof houses and other buildings was very interesting, and my time spent there was insightful insofar as learning about the history and lifestyles of the local people. Before leaving, I bought a few souvenirs, including a set of hanging wall pockets, as well as a pair of wooden pegs that also house a thermometer.
Thank you for reading about my recent travels! See you!
