Naritasan Shinshoji Temple
This historic temple, which was established in 940 by High Priest Kanchō, is rooted in prayers for the pacification of the Taira no Masakado revolt.
It’s very close to Narita Airport, so it’s an easy place to stop by on the way!
Omotesando has lots of great food and shops, and the aroma of grilled eel is super tempting.
Hakodate Port (Tsugaru Strait Ferry Hakodate Terminal)
Hakodate Port has been at the center of Hakodate's development since it opened in 1859 (Ansei 6). As one of the first ports to open in Japan, it has greatly contributed to the development of Hakodate as a tourist city. The dynamic landscape of the deep bay and Mount Hakodate, combined with the modern atmosphere and exotic streetscape of the 19th century, make the area 360-degree photogenic!
Coming to Hakodate Port in winter really hits different! The lights with the ocean view are super romantic, and the atmosphere around the Kanemori Warehouses is great, but the sea breeze is really freezing 🥶
Fushimi Inari Taisha
It is the head shrine of about 30,000 Inari shrines which are traditionally familiar throughout Japan and the god is worshiped for bountiful harvests of grain, business prosperity, the safety of households, recovery from illness, and wish fulfillment. This shrine was established in 711 AD.
A classic Kyoto attraction! The long rows of Senbon Torii stretching all the way up the mountain are really unique.
Meiji Jingu Shrine
Meiji Shrine was established in 1920 (Taisho 9) as a shrine to enshrine Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken.

Take your time walking around and enjoy the solemn yet soothing atmosphere of a Japanese shrine.
