Very beautiful landscape. It was beyond descriptioon, so I cannot say anything when I looked this view. Only I can do is to take photo :-) I drove the rental car - auto park cost is 410yen. You can access there by local bus. Check this website( http://www.town.shari.hokkaido.jp/shiretoko/traffic/%E6%96%9C%E9%87%8C%E3%83%90%E3%82%B9%E7%9F%A5%E5%BA%8A%E7%B7%9A2008%E5%A4%8F%E6%99%82%E5%88%BB%E8%A1%A8.pdf )

When I drove to Utro, suddenly appeared the waterfall by the roadside. The waterfall is Oshin Koshin no Taki(taki means waterfall) Very dynamic waterfall and it was so strange landscape, because this watefall is just a stone's throw away sea!

Maybe one of the best Japanese garden in Japan. You can see Japanese fine art, and feel Japanese spirit. If you go to Shimane Prefecture, don't miss this museum.

Oronko iwa(Oronko Rock) is landmark, just like the gate for Shiretoko world natural heritage site. Climb up this huge rock, you can watch flying slaty-backed gulls as well as cute flowers. Climbing route is heavy and little bit long stairs, you should be careful your steps.

This pond is wrapped in mystery. The clear emerald-green waters and abundant wildlife attract people in Japan. But here is not famous place, so if you go to there, just take a deep breathe and feel aura of mystery.

Very nice view of Mashu lake. Especially, ura-mashu is very quiet place and not crowded. Feel the nature of Hokkaido, and breathe mashu's fantastic atmosphere!

Papa Germano is located on a quiet secondary street about 5 minutes from "Roma Termini" central train station. This hostel is so popular for backpackers, so you need to book before you get there. Front guy is so nice and easy to access Roma's sightseeing spots. Breakfast is continental style with Italian coffee, and every room has a small refrigerator.
