A garden right next to Himeji Castle. I stopped by after touring the castle.
It’s beautifully maintained and really relaxing.

Amaharashi Coast
Amaharashi Coast, located just a 5-minute walk from JR Himi Line's Amaharashi Station, is a coveted spot to visit in summer for its pristine, swimmable beaches and crystal-clear waters drawing crowds from far and wide.
The view is amazing! There’s a roadside station attached, so it’s easy to stop by even if you’re driving!
It’s a bit disappointing when the weather is bad 😢 -

Akihabara Electric Town
Large and small electronics shops cluster in this prominent shopping town in Japan. Nicknamed as Akiba, it is a popular spot not only domestically but also globally. Home appliances, PCs, smartphones, the latest digital devices, of course, but animations, games, figurines, model trains and other pop culture items are gathered here.
I took some photos of the parts that still keep that old-school electric town vibe.
These days, Akihabara feels a lot more centered on subculture, so the traces of its old electronics district are fading. That feels a little sad, honestly. -

Suzuhiro Kamaboko Museum
This is a museum run by Suzuhiro, a long-established fish paste store established in 1865. Visitors can enjoy learning about various aspects of kamaboko, from its history to its ingredients and nutrition.
If you visit the Kamaboko Museum, it’s also worth stopping by the restaurant and gift shop next door!
Of course, I bought some kamaboko to take home! -
