The bun has a thin skin and a fragrant filling that isn’t overly sweet. Freshly made and served nice and warm.
There’s often a line, but it’s worth it.
It’s a great way to try a traditional flavor, and it also makes a solid souvenir. Highly recommended—definitely a must-try.
Kouri Island Station Sorahashi
Located right next to Kouri Bridge, also famous for its spectacular views, Kouri Island Station Sorahashi is built around the theme of creating a place where island residents, village residents, prefectural residents, and tourists can connect. Along with being a great viewpoint, its excellent location also means easy access to the beach.
The stuff they sell inside is pretty tourist-oriented—Okinawan souvenirs, snacks, and ice cream. Prices are what you’d expect at a sightseeing spot, but it’s still fine for picking up gifts.
If you’re hungry, it’s a good place to grab a quick bite, have a drink, and take a short break.
Unko Museum OKINAWA
Unko Museum is Japan’s first museum themed on poop, with permanent venues in Tokyo and Nagoya. Its permanent Okinawa venue, Unko Museum OKINAWA, is located on the 5th floor of Aeon Mall Okinawa Rycom.
Kids will totally lose their minds here! At first, adults might think it's a bit childish, but in the end, they're the ones taking the most photos.
Fukusaya Nagasaki main store
Castella, a sponge cake brought to Nagasaki in the mid-16th century along with Nanban trade, quickly became a favorite across Japan thanks to its fluffy deliciousness and high nutritional value. It was particularly embraced by students who came to Nagasaki from all over Japan to study medicine and Dutch studies.
Their honey castella is really something! The texture is super fine and it’s not dry at all!
