A forest enveloped in tranquility and beauty. Relax and unwind in Bijinbayashi Forest.

A forest surrounded by tranquility and beauty. A moment to relax in Bijinrin 🌳 "Bijinrin" in Tokamachi City, Niigata Prefecture is a fantastical forest where beech trees about 100 years old stand in orderly rows. As the name suggests, the slender trees are beautiful, and the expressions of the four seasons soothe the hearts of those who visit 🍃 The fresh greenery of spring, the autumn leaves, and the snowy scenery of winter - every season is like a painting, making it a popular spot for photography enthusiasts 📷 There is also a small pond in the forest, and the way the trees are reflected on the water surface is like a mirror world painted by nature. I visited on a solo trip, and just taking a deep breath in the quiet forest made my heart feel lighter. It is also perfect for a leisurely stroll with your partner. Since admission is free, it is also recommended as an "absolutely free trip". If you want to surrender yourself to the beauty of nature, please try this forest.
