A Special Moment Above the Clouds – 7th Aug 2026

-
On a westbound flight from Haneda to Hiroshima (sitting on the left side of the aircraft), I could enjoy this stunning view overlooking Mt. Fuji from the south, with Suruga Bay in the background. The cityscape peeking through the clouds, combined with the deep blue of Suruga Bay in the distance, creates a truly special moment unique to air
travel.

The lush green slopes characteristic of midsummer, along with the dynamic sea of clouds stretching up toward the peak, were particularly unforgettable.

    広島へのフライトの際に撮りました。重いですが、いつもカメラをバッグに入れているので、こう言う風景に出会えると、持っていて良かったと思います。

    Taking these photos during a flight to Hiroshima. It’s heavy, but I always keep my camera in my bag; whenever I come across a scene like this, I’m glad I brought it along.

Kappa Bridge, located in the heart of Kamikochi, is a wooden suspension bridge spanning the Azusa River and stands as one of the area's most iconic scenic spots. The warmth of its timber beautifully complements the surrounding trees and crystal-clear river, enchanting countless visitors from home and abroad. The true highlight of Kappa Bridge is the 360-degree panoramic view from atop the bridge. Looking upstream along the Azusa River, the rugged, 3,000-meter-class peaks of the Hotaka Mountain Range rise majestically like a folding screen. Turning downstream, you can behold Mount Yakedake, an active volcano listed among Japan's 100 Famous Mountains, with white plumes of steam still rising from its peak. Across the emerald-green flow of the pristine Azusa River, enjoying both the dynamic rock faces of Hotaka and the wild, breathing presence of Mount Yakedake at the same time is a luxury unique to Kappa Bridge. The landscape changes remarkably with the seasons and time of day, of...
