Super convenient for getting around Hiroshima and out to Miyajima!
The streetcars really do all the heavy lifting here!

I really want Americans to see this place too.
After seeing it, do you still think the atomic bomb was necessary to end the war?
I don’t believe there’s any such thing as a “just” nuclear weapon. -

Crispy, toothsome, and deliciously fragrant anago rice.
Best anagomeshi I’ve ever had!
Even though it was after the weekday lunch rush, there was still a line.
Absolutely amazing! -

The World Heritage site Itsukushima Shrine is famous for its torii gate that looks like it’s floating on the sea.
But it’s not just the gate—most of the shrine is built over the water.
It’s seriously impressive, so you should visit at least once!
Highly recommended! -

Stopped by after visiting Kiyomizu-dera!
You can really soak up that classic Kyoto vibe here, including the surrounding area! -

Kiyomizu-dera is so famous that it gets insanely crowded.
If you’re going to Kyoto, it’s one of the first places you’ll want to hit.
This is an absolute must-see! -

The city that never sleeps. A busy entertainment district where tons of people gather.
Maybe there are a lot of foreign tourists? It feels like there aren’t many Japanese people around.
It doesn’t seem very safe, so it’s not somewhere I’d want to go on a regular basis ^^+ -

Direct from Tokyo to Hakone! I just sat back and rode in comfort, and before I knew it I was at Hakone-Yumoto.
Most Romancecars depart from Shinjuku, but the “Metro Hakone” that runs through to the Chiyoda Line is super convenient too! -

A little urban oasis that suddenly pops up in a tight residential area.
Depending on the season, different flowers and plants welcome you! It’s not a huge park, but it’s a precious space where locals can relax and unwind. -

A shopping street that runs straight east from Kita-Senju Station. There are lots of small shops, and it still has that old-school neighborhood vibe.
While many shopping streets around Japan are turning into shuttered ghost towns, this one is still plenty lively, and locals use it as part of their everyday routine.
I’ve heard there are plans to build high-rise condos near the station as part of redevelopment, but I really hope this current atmosphere sticks around! I don’t want it to turn into another bland, generic area you can find anywhere. -
