Cape Chinen Park is one of my favorite spots in Okinawa. From the walking path, you can see the endless blue ocean, and the sea breeze feels so refreshing that it instantly puts you at ease. When the weather is nice, the water shows different shades of blue, and the scenery is truly soothing. It's a great place to take photos or quietly enjoy the ocean view. You don't need to stay very long, but the laid-back atmosphere makes you want to slow down and fully appreciate Okinawa's natural beauty.

Naha Kokusai-dori Shopping Street
Naha City Kokusai-dori Shopping Street is located in the center of Naha City and is the main street representing Okinawa. It is the largest downtown area in Naha City and is famous as the center of commerce and entertainment. It is known as "Kokusai-dori (International street)," based on the concept of "a people-friendly town and a town that is fun to walk through.
Naha's Kokusai-dori has such a lively Okinawan atmosphere. There are lots of souvenir shops, drugstores, and local specialties along the way, so you won't get bored while strolling and snacking. I also bought snow salt treats, brown sugar snacks, and limited-edition items, and I still wanted to keep browsing even at the end.

Medicinal Pyuora Toothpaste [quasi-pharmaceutical products]
This medicated toothpaste was developed for periodontal troubles such as stickiness, bad breath, and gingivitis. It comes in three types: Clean Mint, Strong Mint, and Mild Herb.
Kao Pure Oral whitening toothpaste produces a fine foam when brushing. The mint flavor is refreshing but not too strong, and my mouth feels fresh afterward. With continued use, I noticed that tea and coffee stains on the surface of my teeth were easier to remove, and my teeth looked cleaner with a natural shine.

Mt. Takao Chair lift
The Mt. Takao Sightseeing Lift is a two-seater tourist lift that connects the foothill station (elevation 201m) and the mountaintop station (elevation 462m) near the Keio Mt. Takao Station (elevation 191m). It spans approximately 872m and takes about 12 minutes one way. It runs parallel to the Natural Science Research Route No. 1, making it a convenient option for one-way trips.
Riding the Mt. Takao Sightseeing Lift this time was a very memorable experience. As the lift slowly ascended, I could enjoy the lush greenery covering the mountain and the expansive views along the way. The gentle breeze felt very pleasant and helped me relax. Although having my feet dangling in the air made me a little nervous at first, I was soon captivated by the beautiful scenery before me. After reaching the top, the air was fresh, and I could continue walking around and exploring Mt. Takao. It was a wonderful memory that combined natural scenery with a relaxing trip, and it's well worth experiencing for yourself.
