Nagatoro Station

I love small town stations

Some very fine red pines grew along the street to Hodo

Surprisingly cute statues in this shrine

Inviting, woodsy style

An amazing toy museum

Nagatoro is famous for shaved ice sweets made with natural ice

Only about two hours from Tokyo is a pretty little tourist town named Nagatoro. While there are many things to do in Nagatoro including exploring Iwadatami, shooting rapids on the Arakawa River, visiting Hodosan Shrine and taking the cable car to the top of Mount Hodo, just wandering around the old-fashioned streets makes for a very pleasant past-time.
