The whole rest stop is shaped like a melon—it's so cute, you just have to stop and take a photo! The melon desserts and ice cream inside are delicious—sweet and fragrant, totally comforting. You can also buy local produce, so it really has that local flavor. If you're driving by, definitely stop in for some melon treats and souvenirs!

The transparent and open design lets you enjoy an unbeatable ocean view! Designed and supervised by a famous female architect, it's considered one of the most beautiful train stations in the world.

The museum doesn't have a huge collection, but the scenery outside is much nicer. At night, the lighting creates a really nice atmosphere.

This shrine is super quiet and beautiful. Make sure to leave plenty of time to take photos with the torii gate in the lake ⛩️.
