    If you're near Jindaiji Temple, you definitely can't miss Kitaro Chaya! The shop is filled with the atmosphere of the yokai world, with everything from character figurines and creative goods to all kinds of exclusive merchandise. There's so much to see that you won't want to stop browsing. You really have to admire the Japanese business sense. In the end, I couldn't resist picking out a few cute character cookies. Every one was so adorable that I almost couldn't bear to eat them—it was like bringing home childhood memories and cuteness all in one package〜
