Kyoto Tower really stands out—you can see it from pretty much anywhere. It's totally the city's landmark.

Kamata Onsen
Kamata Onsen is a nostalgic public bathhouse that has been in operation since 1937. The naturally sourced hot spring water that flows here is jet black - considered the darkest among Kamata’s many black-hot-spring baths. This distinctive color comes from humic acid, which is rich in marine minerals. Despite its appearance, the water has no unpleasant odor, making it approachable even for first-time visitors.
The space isn't very big, but it's super clean and has a really relaxing vibe. The price is very reasonable, too. This place is definitely a hidden gem in the neighborhood for hot springs.

Don Quijote Shinjuku Kabukicho Store
Don Quijote Shinjuku Kabukicho Store is the discount shop drawing shoppers from near and wide for its whopping selection and unbeatable prices. Sat at the entrance of Kabukicho, Japan’s largest entertainment district, the store is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year so you can easily pop in for shopping whether on your way during the day or night.
There are a lot of products, but it's really messy inside. The stairs and aisles are way too narrow, and it's hard to get around.

FANCL Calolimit
A Food with Function Claims product “Calolimit” that inhibits the rise of blood sugar level and triglycerides after a meal by suppressing the absorption of sugar and fat.
I've always had a good impression of FANCL products, so I bought two packs to take home. After taking them for two weeks, I didn't see any effect just by itself—you still need to exercise!
