Windmills Standing Tall in the Sea Breeze: The 28 Windmills of Horonobe Town & More | Hokkaido Mirai Note (55)
From the wonderful photos of Hokkaido taken and submitted by all of you, we're excited to introduce three carefully selected posts again this time!
The 28 Windmills (Horonobe Town)
The sight of 28 windmills lined up in a single row along the Oloron Line is truly spectacular.

A powerful shot that captures the overwhelming scale of these tall windmills, lined up with perfect precision!
These windmills, catching the wind from the Sea of Japan under the sun, are said to be approximately 100 meters tall.
We'd love to experience the immense presence of these windmills, which stretch for 3.1 km, up close.
Ezo Red Squirrel and Adonis Ramosa (Takikawa City)
The Adonis ramosa flower signals the arrival of spring.
An Ezo red squirrel came to visit the spot where the flowers were blooming.

This shot captures an adorable moment of an Ezo red squirrel admiring the dignified Adonis ramosa flowers that herald the spring!
Not only does the Adonis ramosa announce the arrival of spring, but its Japanese name, Fukujuso, suggests it's an auspicious flower, said to bring good fortune and signify longevity.
Perhaps the squirrel is also sensing the arrival of spring from the flower's faint scent and dignified appearance?
River Rafting (Kutchan Town)
I joined a rafting tour down the Shiribetsu River in Niseko.◎
This is a thrilling shot of us doing a dynamic 'wheelie' on the water.
Thanks to our truly professional guide, we were able to fully enjoy both the grand nature of Niseko and the fun of playing in the river.

A note from the Domingo editorial team
A fun-filled photo where you can almost feel the excitement and thrill of the people on the boat, just by looking at their backs!
The water levels and scenery of the Shiribetsu River change dramatically from spring to summer and autumn, so you can enjoy rafting in different ways depending on the season.
It's such a fun activity that every year when it gets warmer, I find myself thinking, "I want to go rafting!"
