Tsukiji Hongwanji Temple
Located near the Tokyo Tsukiji Market, Tsukiji Hongwanji is a temple of the Jodo Shinshu Hongwanji Sect, whose head temple is Nishi Hongwanji in Kyoto.
東京的「築地本願寺」，第一眼就被眼前的建築吸引。外觀和一般印象中的日本寺院很不一樣，帶有濃濃的異國風格，巨大的本堂看起來非常壯觀，站在前面拍照很有氣勢。
走進寺院後，裡面的空間也相當寬敞，細節裝飾很值得慢慢欣賞。逛完還可以順路到附近的築地場外市場吃美食，安排在一起剛剛好。

Ine Town Tourism Exchange Facility Funaya Biyori
Located in Ine Town on the Tango Peninsula in northern Kyoto Prefecture, Funaya Biyori is a tourism and exchange facility where visitors can enjoy local food and culture while gazing out at the famous “funaya” boat houses along Ine Bay. Since opening in 2017, it has become a lively base for exploring the area, with a seaside café (INE CAFE), a dining spot (Wadatsumi), seasonal pop-up shops, and even a boathouse for festival ships.
What attracted me most to Funaya Biyori in Ine Town, Kyoto Prefecture, was the unique scenery of the funaya boathouses. Walking along Ine Bay, you can see rows of traditional boathouses lining the coast, with the first floors directly connected to the water. The view is really distinctive.
Strolling around Funaya Biyori, you can get an up-close look at the views of Ine Bay and the streets lined with boathouses. When the weather is nice, the water looks very clear, and the whole town has a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere. Compared with the bustling tourist attractions in central Kyoto, this place feels more suited to slow travel.

Enoshima-Kamakura Freepass
The Enoshima-Kamakura Freepass is a convenient and cost-effective ticket for exploring the popular coastal destinations of Enoshima and Kamakura. With this pass, you can enjoy unlimited rides on the Enoden Line between Fujisawa Station and Katase-Enoshima Station, as well as discounted admission to popular attractions and restaurants in the area.
Along the way, you can enjoy views of the Shonan coast, and occasionally see the train running close to the shoreline. The train ride itself becomes part of the journey.
I found the pass very suitable for a day trip to Kamakura and Enoshima. You can hop on and off freely based on your itinerary and connect attractions such as the Great Buddha, Hase, Kamakurakokomae, and Enoshima, making the trip easy and convenient.
