苏河家园:“Lake Ashi is located in Hakone, a famous hot spring resort in Japan. The greenery of the cedar forest trail is super beautiful. Walking on the trail, you feel like you are in the forest. The water of Lake Ashi is clear, the lakeshore is beautiful, and the cruise ships are circling the lake. The Torii in the lake is one of the iconic buildings in Hakone, which makes people feel the tranquility and beauty of nature.”

zinnia_615:“The garden landscape of the Glass Forest Art Museum is really amazing! Entering the art museum, you can see the amazing Fontana fountain, the sparkling trees, springs, and waterfalls are all made of glass balls, shining in the sun. The crystal porch made of crystal bead curtains makes people linger, and the strange glass installation stands quietly in the center of the lake, attracting the attention of every traveler. The medieval European-style architecture adds a fairy-tale romantic color to the entire garden. There are all kinds of lifelike flowers and plants made of glass in the garden, which is very novel! Okay, I can't write a small essay anymore, let's take a look at the pictures? The indoor exhibition is glass products from Venice from the 15th to the 19th century and glass products by contemporary artists in Venice. In fact, I am not very interested in them, although they are very exquisite. But the beautiful garden landscape is really worth it for fairies to come and check in and take pictures. Ca Glass Forest Art Museum closes at 5:30. Fairies who want to arrange a day to see the exhibition can first visit the nearby Sculpture Forest and Pola Art Museum, and finally come here.”
