Summer is coming in Tokyo.

Early summer in Japan is the rainy season, but it is also the season of fireflies.

There is a spot in neighboring town of Tkyo city, where you can see and watch the flight of fireflies.

The spot is Kasayato-Shinsui park in Inagi city.

From 4/Jun to 13/Jun only, you can meet these fragile and beatuiful lights of fireflies in that park.

The park's nearest station is Wakabadai Station on Keio-Sagamihara Line.

From Hatagaya Station which is the nearest station of our Sakura Hotel Hatagaya,

you can reach Wakabadai Station within mere 40 minutes.

From Wakabadai Station, you can go to the park simply following the signboards, like these.

Fireflies need unspoiled running water.

So, seeing them in the midst of Tokyo Metropolis is very exotic.

Let's go and enjoy their pale green signaling lights.

But, Inagi city is one of the residential suburbs of Tokyo,

and so the surrounding area of the park is full of common houses.

To keep its quiet atmosphere, even if you get excited with the scenery full of fireflies,

do not be noisy please.

They are cute guests from Germany, Diana-san and Marco-san ♪ Nice to meet you--!   

Their suvenior, Betty is so cute♪ 

They love Japanese people, and town, and enjoyed for shopping around Harajuku station!

Diana-san bought many clothings at Harajuku, and watched some performances and fasioned people at Yoyogi Park, like this.
