TENGA LAND
You can find TENGA LAND in Harajuku, a neighborhood known as the source of new trends and fashion. The shop had its grand opening in April 2024, on the 2nd floor of Harajuku’s Tokyu Plaza “Harakado”, noted as the first ever experience-based shop in Japan for self-pleasure items.
You can actually buy these products in a lot of places, but coming to the official store just feels more special...
Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) Tsukuba Space Center
JAXA Tsukuba Space Center is Japan’s largest core agency to explore space through a variety of projects such as developing and running satellites, building rockets and transportation systems, and training astronauts.
The exhibits are incredibly professional, but the explanations are really easy to understand. There's even a real rocket model—seeing it in person was actually pretty moving.
Mankusen Shrine
In the month of Kamiari-zuki (October on the lunar calendar), the gods from all over Japan gather in Izumo. It is said that the last stop for the gods visiting Izumo is the Mankusen Shrine. Officially called "Makuse-No-Yashiro," it is said that the gods hold a meeting here before departing for their respective lands.
This is the only shrine in Japan dedicated to the 'God of the Night.' It's really unique.
Katori Shrine
Futsunushi-no-o-Kami written in Japanese mythology, ”Kuniyuzuri”, is enshrined as the Deity and this shrine is the head shrine of about 400 Katori Shrines around the country.
A must-visit spot when you're on a day trip to Sawara.
We visited after exploring Sawara and the atmosphere here was truly impressive!
Mt. Fuji
At a staggering 3,776 meters tall, Mt. Fuji is Japan’s tallest mountain and the pride of its two homes, Yamanashi and Shizuoka Prefectures. This famous peak is an iconic symbol of Japan.
I drove around Yamanashi for three days and two nights four years ago. I really miss it!
I wonder if I'll get the chance to see Mt. Fuji's majestic view again next year 👀
