The mall is pretty big, so you can easily spend quite a while browsing here. The variety of stores is fairly good too, so it doesn’t get boring.

Aikoku Station & Kofuku Station
Aikoku Station and Kofuku Station in Tokachi, Hokkaido. Buying a ticket that reads “From Aikoku to Kofuku” made them a buzz for “love coming true” and “good luck,” sparking a major boom in the 1970s. The line is now discontinued, so they’re no longer used as stations, but they remain popular tourist spots-especially with couples.
The station is small, but it has a lot of sentimental value. It’s perfect for buying a ticket as a souvenir.

Ozeki Supermarket Asakusa Kaminarimon Store
Nothing but local roots at this supermarket popping up across Tokyo.The Asakusa Kaminarimon branch is located just about 100 meters from the iconic Asakusa Temple Kaminarimon Gate. Check the storefront and just inside for wall-to-wall daily necessities like seasonal vegetables, fruits, fresh groceries and snacks, to seasonings, alcohol, daily necessities, and more! You can always expect an easy energy and bustling vibe from here during open hours.
OZEKI isn’t very big, but the variety is great.
They have vegetables, prepared foods, snacks, plus seasonal fruits and wagashi to choose from.
It’s close to Kaminarimon, so it’s perfect to stop by while you’re in the area. -

BEB5 Karuizawa by Hoshino Resorts
Opened in the Karuizawa Hoshino Area in 2019, this hotel embraces the concept of “more than a night out, less than a trip-a hotel where everyone can kick back together.” Its defining feature is TAMARIBA, a public space open 24 hours a day, with a café lounge arranged around a courtyard.
The overall vibe is super chill—definitely feels like a vacation spot for young people. The Lobby Lounge is just like a café, and you can totally lounge around and do nothing all day.
