This place feels kind of like a large mixed-use shopping mall. There are tons of stores, and it’s really comfortable to walk around.

You can pretty much take care of everything in one trip—food, clothes, and everyday essentials.

The space is huge, so it doesn’t feel cramped like some city malls in Japan, and it’s easy to get here by car.

It’s not exactly a major tourist attraction, but if you’re nearby and want to cool off, relax, and do a little shopping, it’s actually a great place to wander around slowly. It also seemed pretty popular with locals.

Basho-an (Creative Wagashi Workshop)

Located in Takimi Koji, a retro-themed street that recreates the atmosphere of old Japan, this traditional Japanese sweets shop has been beloved for generations. Since its founding in 1868, Basho-an has continued to preserve its time-honored production methods.

The warabi mochi is bouncy and rich, and the roasted soybean flour grinding experience is fun.

The flavor is consistently good, but it’s more about the vibe.

Great for photos and a little break. A bit pricey, but worth trying once!

Sanuki Toy Museum

An interactive museum that opened in April 2022, where visitors can experience Kagawa culture through wooden toys and play. Inside, around 5,000 wooden toys and play equipment inspired by traditional crafts fill the space with the warmth of wood.

This is definitely a great place to bring kids. They’ll have so much fun they won’t want to leave. But even if you come on your own as an adult, it still feels really relaxing, like it brings out your inner child a little.

That said, if you’re the type who likes more excitement and wants to move through your itinerary quickly, the pace here might feel a bit slow.

Hakusan Ichirino Ski Resort

Located near the Ishikawa-side entrance of the Hakusan Shirakami-go White Road, at the foot of the sacred Mt. Hakusan, this is the largest ski resort in Ishikawa Prefecture. The resort offers a wide range of courses for all skill levels, including three steep, ungroomed runs for advanced skiers, several intermediate courses such as the Nodaira slope, and gentle beginner slopes. The kids’ park, packed with fun play equipment, is especially popular for sledding and other activities. Night skiing is also available, allowing families to enjoy skiing together from morning until evening.

Overall it feels really laid-back, not one of those huge, crowded ski resorts.

It’s great if you just want to take it easy and don’t like a lot of noise.

The courses are wide and the slopes are pretty gentle, so beginners or anyone who wants to practice slowly can ski here and feel quite at ease.

Niginohama Beach

Niginohama Beach connects Keya no Oto, the largest basalt sea cave in Japan and one of Itoshima’s most iconic scenic spots, with Nokita Beach. Its sandy shore and pine grove stretch for Approx. 6 km, creating a dramatic coastline that has been selected as one of Japan’s 100 Best White Sand and Green Pine Shores. The sweeping bow-shaped beach with white waves rolling in is a spectacular sight. In summer, the sunset sinking into the Genkai Sea is also beautiful, and many visitors park at one of several parking areas and enjoy a stroll.

It’s a very natural, quiet beach with hardly any tourist facilities, and there usually aren’t many people.

The sand is mixed with small rocks, so it can feel a little rough underfoot, but the water is very clear, and it’s really relaxing to just watch the waves.

The view is quite beautiful on a nice day, and the sunset is lovely too. It’s a good fit for anyone who wants to get away from the crowds and simply stare at the ocean for a while. This is definitely not a busy, lively beach.
