  • They have Binchotan charcoal soft serve here! It tastes a bit like brown sugar, and the added cookie gives it a nice texture. Pretty unique experience.

  • No entrance fee, so you can visit and pray freely. It's good for a quick stop or a leisurely stroll. There aren't many types of omamori, but they're all pretty well-made—perfect for gifts.

    The moment I walked through the torii gate, it really felt like stepping into a mysterious world. The stone lanterns lining the stairs looked just like a scene from a Studio Ghibli movie.

    Compared to traditional zoos, Tama really feels more like a wildlife park. It's perfect for families, and I saw lots of kindergarten kids there on field trips.

  • There are lots of unique little shops here, selling local handicrafts, pottery, and traditional sweets. There are also some retro-style cafes and restaurants where you can enjoy great food while soaking in the historic atmosphere. I tried the famous 'Kurashiki grape' dessert, and it was absolutely delicious.

  • The museum's environment is really pleasant, with a well-thought-out layout. The exhibition spaces feel modern and artistic, so every visit offers a fresh visual and emotional experience.

    There are so many food options at Solamachi! You can find all kinds of dishes here, so there's something for everyone, no matter what you're craving.

  • The park isn’t very big, but everything is super cute. Don’t miss the parade at noon! The staff are all really friendly. It’s perfect for Sanrio fans and kids.
