Visiting the sumo stable in Asakusa was a truly unique and meaningful cultural experience. Watching the wrestlers' daily training up close gave me a much deeper understanding of the discipline and intensity behind sumo.

They turned the old, closed copper mine into a tourist spot. You can ride a small sightseeing train on the original mining tracks. It's not a long ride, but it's a unique experience.

Inside, you can see buildings from different regions that were moved here, dating from the Edo to Meiji periods. It's definitely worth checking out.

The oysters here are super famous! I had a blast eating a ton of grilled oysters at the shop by the parking lot. It was such a fun and tasty experience.

The smell from the foxes' waste is pretty strong. Don't be fooled by how cute they look—remember, they're still wild animals and can be aggressive, so avoid touching them.

Niigata Koshihikari rice is amazing, especially the ones from Uonuma. Sake brewed with this premium rice tastes really great.

One small packet at a time is just right.

A bit disappointing. Once is enough for me.

The hot spring water mixes with the lake, making it really unique. I recommend coming early in the morning during winter to catch photos of the steam rising from the lake.

I love exploring markets! I ended up hauling a huge bag of Niigata rice home—my luggage was way overweight on the way back!
