Hakone Ropeway
From Sounzan to Togendai Station, a ropeway runs about 4km. You can ride in a gondola and look over the lush nature of Hakone mountains, Lake Ashinoko, Mt. Fuji and Sagami Bay. Enjoy a skywalk for about 24 minutes.
You can get a great view of Lake Ashinoko and Mt. Fuji from up there. It's a pretty nice spot.
Yasaka Shrine
The shrine’s deities are Susanoo-no-Mikoto, Kushiinadahime-no-Mikoto, and Yahashira-no-Mikogami, and it is the head shrine of approximately 2,300 Yasaka Shrine and related shrines with Susanoo-no-Mikoto enshrined scattered throughout Japan.
This is a must-visit spot in Kyoto. It's really close to Hanamikoji Street, and you often see beautiful women in kimonos around here.
Nijo-jo Castle
After winning the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 and unifying the country, Tokugawa Ieyasu had Nijo-jo Castle built as his base in Kyoto. It is a historical monument with a history of over 410 years as a castle in the heart of the capital. It was designated a UNESCO world heritage site as a part of the “Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto” in 1994.
This place is known as the site of the 'Taisei Hokan.' You can really feel the serious atmosphere here.
Fukuoka Tower
This landmark in Fukuoka City was built as a monument of 1989 Asia Pacific Expo (Yokatopia). It is 234m-tall and the top floor has an observation area with a 360-degree panorama over Fukuoka City.
The night view from inside Fukuoka Tower is stunning, and the ticket price is more reasonable compared to other observation decks.
Osawaya’s first shop
The long-established Udon shop, Osawaya, which started as a small shop of about 100m2 in 1970, currently operates four shops in the Gunma Prefecture. They serve Mizusawa Udon, one of the three famous types of udon.
One of Japan's top three udon noodles! The noodles are super chewy, and there are plenty of seats so you usually don't have to wait long.
