It's awesome that you can start shopping as soon as you step out of the station! There are tons of brands here, from clothes and food to souvenirs. There's even a Ferris wheel on the rooftop where you can enjoy views of Matsuyama—super romantic and perfect for photos. Whether you want to eat something good, shop, or just take a break, this place is a great choice.

Kikko Shrine
This shrine enshrines the ancestors of the Kikkawa family, former lords of the Iwakuni domain. Originally consisting of three separate shrines, it was unified in 1885 and built at its present location on the site of the family’s former residence. Shrines dedicated to ancestral spirits are rare in Japan, and its distinctive layout features the torii gate, shinmon gate, worship hall, offering hall, and main sanctuary all aligned in a straight line from south to north.
The shrine itself isn't very big, but it's super clean and has a real sense of history. There are tons of trees around, so walking here feels really relaxing. The torii gate, stone steps, and the small shrine building all have a great vibe. If you're lucky, you might catch a time when there's nobody else around—it's so quiet you can only hear the wind.
If you're already heading to Kikko Park for a stroll, it's definitely worth stopping by. It's a really chill little spot. -
Hakata Motsunabe Oyama One Building
Hakata Motsunabe Oyama One Building is an offal hotpot specialist in the Tenjin area of Fukuoka-shi, Fukuoka. It is on B1F of ONE FUKUOKA BLDG., a commercial facility that opened in April 2025. It is easy to access from Tenjin Chikagai, which connects directly to Tenjin Station, and it is popular with locals and travelers alike.
If you're worried about the strong flavor of beef intestines, you don't have to be here. They prepare everything really cleanly. I highly recommend their spicy broth—it's just a little spicy and really whets your appetite.
