[A Different Side of Japan @donnyjkimball]

You know, Japan has many amazing places to see early summer hydrangeas, but few can compare to the temple grounds of Akita's Unsho-ji.

Located out on the prefecture's rural Oga Peninsula, Unsho-ji is one of those well-kept secrets that only those in the know are really aware of.

While it's truly a commitment to get to in comparison to popular spots like Kamakura’s Meigetsu-in, Unsho-ji is definitely worth the effort for hydrangea lovers.

And, due to being located much further north, you can see Unsho-ji's vibrantly blue flowers long after the ones in and around Tokyo start to wither.

If you make it up here, just be sure to also drop by the Namahage Museum, which is found just a stone’s throw away from Unsho-ji and tells the tale of these fearsome beings.

These benevolent but frightening deities are said to come down from the mountains on New Year’s Eve and scare the lazy no-goods into getting their act together.

Also, if you have a rental car, there are a number of other locales out there on the Oga Peninsula, such as the Godzilla-shaped rock formation, that are worth seeing.

Add this amazing hidden gem to your next Japan travel itinerary and skip the crazy crowds that you'll find down in Kamakura!

Wagashi are meant to be enjoyed before matcha — not after. Their subtle sweetness enhances the tea’s delicate bitterness and deep umami. 🍵#Matcha #JapaneseSweets #wagashi #Japan

Tipping has become such a heated topic of discussion. At this point, a restaurant displaying a sign saying 'Tipping is not mandatory here' would likely become popular just because of that sign. Would any restaurant owner in the U.S. try that?

By the way, in Japan, any tipping will be received with a happy, surprised smile and great appreciation, since it's not customary there. ☺️

茶碗はお茶をいただくための器で、茶席では、客にとって最も身近な道具です。中国製の唐物や朝鮮半島で焼かれたものなど、本来の用途とは別に茶の湯の道具として見立てられた茶碗と、茶の湯のためにわが国で生み出された和物茶碗等があります。

Smoky edges, sticky-sweet miso glaze, a thousand years in every bite. Aburi mochi isn't sold anywhere else — only here, on the path to Imamiya Shrine. Rustic. Pure. Hauntingly delicious. Come taste what lingers long after you leave. #Kyoto #JapanHolidays
