In addition to cherry blossom viewing, you can also go here when you come to Japan in April...🌸

In central Japan, there is a hidden piece of pure land called the "Japan Alps" - Tateyama Kurobe. This place is not just a mountain and valley in the geographical sense🗻, but also a dream world carved out by nature with uncanny craftsmanship, attracting travelers from all over the world to explore㊙️.
The soul of Tateyama Kurobe is hidden in those breathtaking snow walls. Every winter, due to the high altitude and heavy snowfall❄️, thick snow accumulates here.

The mountain will be closed from November 11th every year until it reopens in April 11th of the following year.

When the temperature gradually rises in spring, the snow begins to melt, leaving huge snow walls as high as ten or even twenty meters on both sides of the road. Walking in it, it feels like being in a white time tunnel, with a strip of blue sky above your head and a cold and spectacular wall of snow beside you. Every step is accompanied by awe and admiration for the power of nature.
🏔️Opening time: 2025/04/15 - 2025/11/30.
