When you come to Japan, how could you miss a hot bowl of Ichiran ramen? You can get Ichiran in Taiwan too, but somehow eating it in Japan feels a little more special.
From ordering, choosing the richness of the broth and the firmness of the noodles, to the unique solo seating setup, every detail has that sense of ritual that makes Japanese ramen culture so fun. The rich tonkotsu broth, thin noodles, and secret spicy sauce are seriously satisfying in one bite!
Food while traveling isn’t just about flavor. It becomes a memory.
If you’re visiting Japan, definitely put Ichiran ramen on your must-eat list. The atmosphere of eating ramen in Japan really does feel different from Taiwan!

Yufuin Floral Village
A compact theme park that recreates the streetscapes of the Cotswolds region in the UK, known as a filming location for the movie “Harry Potter,” with a magical, fairytale-like atmosphere that feels like you’ve stepped into a storybook. Inside the park, beautiful plants bloom throughout the seasons, and paths lined with stone cottages continue on, with plenty of photo spots scattered throughout.
來到九州湯布院花卉村，瞬間像走進童話故事裡的小鎮！可愛的歐風建築、繽紛花草與特色小店，每個角落都充滿驚喜，隨便一站都是拍照好位置。慢慢散步、拍拍照，還能感受悠閒的旅行氛圍，少女心直接大爆發！難怪成為湯布院必訪的超人氣景點，連相機都捨不得休息。

Beppu Onsen
Beppu onsen is the collective name for all of the hot springs across Beppu City in Oita Prefecture. With 2,847 different springs that produce about 130,000 kiloliters of spring water every day, its ranked among the highest of hot springs in Japan. Beppu Onsen is divided into 8 areas and is also called Beppu Hatto or Bappu Onsenkyo. The many different springs offer different water properties and colors, so you won’t want to miss the chance to visit as many different hot springs as possible.
When visiting Beppu Onsen, Umi Jigoku is a must-see. The moment I stepped into the grounds, I was drawn to the huge, vivid blue hot spring. The color was so beautiful it almost looked unreal!
Even though it’s called “Sea Hell,” the scenery doesn’t feel like hell at all. It’s more like stepping into a dreamy wonderland. The steaming hot spring pond surrounded by greenery makes every photo look amazing. You can also try the specialty hot spring eggs, and there’s a free footbath too. The Beppu Hell Tour is absolutely worth experiencing. -

Nyoirinji Temple
Step up to this historic Jodo-shu Buddhist temple, set on Mount Yoshino with deep roots that date back to the Southern Court of the Nanboku-cho period (mid to late 14th century). Since centuries ago this spot has served as a cherished temple under Emperor Go-Daigo, housing his tomb and that of Prince Sutoku on its grounds. As an insider’s tip, plan to visit on September 27th, the old lunar calendar anniversary of Emperor Go-Daigo's death, to see the memorial service and exclusive access into the private main hall.
Nyoirinji Temple is also known as the “Frog Temple,” and you’ll find cute frog decorations all around the grounds. It feels playful and soothing at the same time.
Walking through the temple feels like entering a frog kingdom. It’s not only great for photos, but also leaves you with a warm, happy feeling and lots of good vibes! -
