The cherry blossoms of Miyagawa Tsutsumi in IseCity, which was selected as one of the ``100 best cherry blossoms in Japan,'' are one of the standard cherry blossom viewing spots in Mie Prefecture. It is said that about 1,000 Yoshino cherry trees are planted at a distance of about 1 km. Plum and cherry blossom season will be in a few months, so I'm looking forward to taking photos!

3rd place: Kumano Fireworks Festival: KumanoCity (2,833 likes)

Third place goes to the Kumano Fireworks Festival held in KumanoCity.
The photo is a repost of @hide_san_3 's post.
This is a popular fireworks festival that attracts people from all over the country. This year, due to the typhoon, the event has been postponed from August 17th (Saturday) to August 26th (Monday). It's usually very crowded, but this year, as the fireworks were held on a weekday, they were able to enjoy the fireworks comfortably.
As a general rule, the date is fixed at August 17th unless there is a weather problem. August 17th 2020 is Monday! It will be held on weekdays! Why not take this chance and try it out?

2nd place Kushida River: MatsusakaCity (2,890 likes)

2nd place is ``Kushidawa River'' in MatsusakaCity.

This place is located in the Iidaka district of MatsusakaCity, and the area upstream of the Kushida River is called "kahadavalley." It is a place rich in nature, and you can see spectacular views everywhere.
Although it is not a famous place, it has recently become a popular spot where you can experience canoeing, there is even a campsite, and there are more activities that allow you to get in touch with nature. It is truly a place with a beauty that you don't want to share with others.

And the prestigious 1st place in 2019 was SuzukaCity 's "NagonoOokusu no Okusu"!
The photo
is a repost of @kuroneko1717 's post.
@kuroneko1717 was the one who took the photo of Chotokuji Temple that ranked first when the top 10 most liked photos of 2018 were announced. 2 years in a row! congratulations!

`` MaruyamaSenmaida'', `` Meotoiwa(rocksofthemarriedcouple)'', and ``Kumano Fireworks Festival'' were also in the ranking last year.

Now, I would like to introduce some things that didn't make it into the top 10, but that I would like to recommend ♬


Miyagawa Dam Lake: OdaiTown
This is a sightseeing boat at Miyagawa Dam Lake in OdaiTown.
The photo is a repost of a post by @mie_eetoko, who took the photo of Kushida River, which ranked 2nd in the TOP10.
This is a round trip course that goes around Miyagawa Dam Lake in the innermost part of OdaiTown, and takes you to Osugidani Valley, one of Japan's three major valleys. You can enjoy magnificent views from the lake, with fresh greenery in spring and autumn leaves in autumn.

Rainbow Fountain: MatsusakaCity
This is "Niji no Izumi" in MatsusakaCity.
The photo is a repost of @zen1730 's post.
"Niji no Izumi" is located in the Iidaka district of MatsusakaCity, near the upper reaches of the Kushida River, ranked second in the top 10. This is a gigantic work of art that was created by ceramic artist Kenji Higashi over the course of his life. Unfortunately, Mr. Higashi passed away in 2013, so I cannot hear his story directly, but when I visit the site, Iitaka's majestic nature and his works blend together, and I am surrounded by a sacred atmosphere.
They are all made of ceramics, so if you look closely, you will be surprised to see that even the large human statues have seams and are divided into parts. Please take a look at the works that put the artist's soul into it.
