▲ Blue Pond (Aoike) is located on the left bank of the Biei River in Hokkaido. It was formed by a dam built to intercept volcanic lava, and the water reflects a blue hue under the sunlight, hence its name. Approaching Biei Blue Pond is like stepping into a fairyland, with its misty, ethereal beauty, earning it the nickname "Little Jiuzhaigou of Japan." Every morning, the water becomes even purer and more vibrant azure, a truly breathtaking sight.

▲ Ningle Terrace is a popular photo spot in Furano. "Ningle" is a character from the stage play "Ningle" by playwright So Kuramoto, a 15cm tall "forest sage" living in the forests of Hokkaido. In this fairytale-like beautiful forest, 15 small wooden cabins stand, each selling handicrafts based on natural concepts.

▲ The Shirahige waterfall in Furano, Hokkaido has a drop of 30 m and is located at an elevation of 600 m in the Shirogane hot spring area of Biei. It gets its name "Shirahige waterfall" from the white beard-like streams cascading through rock crevices. The underground spring water crashes against rocks, creating blue-glowing splashes. In summer, the area features lush mountains and clear waters, while winter transforms it into a snow-covered landscape, offering visitors the pleasure of witnessing the striking contrast between seasons.
