The baristas are very professional in the way they brew the coffee, and you can see how much care goes into every detail. You can feel their commitment to coffee quality.
Watching the beans being roasted and the drinks being prepared on-site is very distinctive. It's a completely different experience from a typical Starbucks.

Nishitetsu Grand Hotel
Nishitetsu Grand Hotel has been representing Fukuoka City since its foundation in 1969. It is located on the corner of Meiji dori and Tenjin Nishi dori, very close to the Tenjin subway station. A door man welcomes guests at the entrance and the hotel has a sophisticated and dignified atmosphere.
This time I stayed at the Nishitetsu Grand Hotel in Tenjin, and the location was really convenient! The Tenjin shopping district is right outside, with department stores, drugstores, convenience stores, and restaurants all nearby, so there was no need to worry about finding somewhere to shop or get a late-night snack.
Although the hotel has been open for quite some time, it is very well maintained. The lobby has the refined feel of a long-established hotel, and the staff were very friendly. The room was a little more spacious than a typical Japanese business hotel, and it didn't feel too cramped even with two large suitcases open. Overall, it was quite comfortable. -

Fukui City Art Museum [Art Lab Fukui]
A municipal art museum in Fukui City. Guided by the concept of bringing “viewing” and “creating” together, it is a popular place for both appreciating and making art. The museum primarily collects and displays works by Hiroatsu Takata, a sculptor with ties to Fukui City. It also holds diverse special exhibitions inspired by his wide circle of friends, offering visitors exposure to a variety of artistic expression.
As soon as I walked into the museum, I noticed how well lit it was. Natural light poured in through the large glass windows, making the whole space feel very comfortable. It didn’t feel cramped or oppressive inside, so I felt relaxed while viewing the exhibits. I really liked this kind of design.

Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building Observation Deck
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, located in Shinjuku, is Tokyo’s centralized administration complex, comprised of three buildings: the First Main Office Building, the Second Main Office Building, and the Metropolitan Assembly Building. The First Main Office Building is home to a 45th floor Observation Deck, which is accessible by dedicated elevator on the 1st floor. In just 55 seconds the dedicated elevator will whisk you into the skies, to a height of 202 meters above ground and the sprawling view of Tokyo below.
The architecture of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building is really striking. You can recognize it from far away, and even before going up to the observation deck, just admiring the building from the outside is already worth seeing.
