KITTE Osaka
KITTE Osaka is multiplex retail hub in JP Tower Osaka, set over the site of the original Osaka Station and the former Osaka Central Post Office with some 100 different stores to shop across its basement to 6th floor. Everything you know and love about Japan is here with a new lease on life, just waiting to be explored.
It's not as rigid as a traditional department store. It feels younger and trendier, making it a great place for young people to shop.
Shirakawa-go (Historic Village)
Shirakawa-go, a beautiful area where traditional Japanese scenery still exists, is home to the largest number of still-standing traditional “gassho-zukuri” Japanese homes. As of 2016, there are around 100 buildings still standing, both large and small. It is the largest remaining historic settlement in Japan, and it is preserved as a Group of Traditional Buildings in the register of Cultural Properties of Japan.
The structure of the gassho-zukuri houses is kind of like modern loft-style buildings.
Seirogan
Seirogan is a gastrointestinal medication that has been a staple in Japanese households for over 100 years. Its main active ingredient, the herbal medicine (a natural plant with medicinal properties) and Japanese pharmacopoeia “JP wood creosote” helps to adjust the water balance in the intestines without disrupting intestinal movement.
This medicine has been sitting around for ages. It seems like it never really goes bad...
