Koikeya Potato Chips Potato and Salt is one of my favorite classic snacks. As soon as you open the bag, you can smell the rich potato aroma. The chips are thin, crispy, and crunchy, with just the right amount of salt. They're not too salty, which brings out the potatoes' natural sweetness even more. They're simple but hard to get tired of, and perfect for watching shows or chatting. Once you start, you can't stop!

Shimotori Shopping Arcade
Located in the heart of Kumamoto City and stretching from Toricho-suji in a north-south direction, Shimotori Shopping Arcade is bustling with local customers and tourists both day and night. Easily accessible by tram and bus, and in close proximity to JR Kumamoto Station, the arcade is also within walking distance to Kumamoto Castle, one of Japan's three most famous castles and a symbol of Kumamoto.
Shimotori Shopping Arcade is Kumamoto's liveliest shopping district. The street is spacious and vibrant, and it's easy to shop here whether it's sunny or raining. It's filled with clothing, cosmetics, drugstores, souvenir shops, and all kinds of restaurants, so there's plenty to choose from. I sampled some of Kumamoto's local snacks while shopping and soaked up the lively atmosphere. Before I knew it, time had flown by.

Starbucks Coffee Dazaifu Tenmangu Omotesando Store
Starbucks Coffee Dazaifu Tenmangu Omotesando Store opened in 2011, right next to the torii gate facing the Omotesando Avenue of Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine. This is one of the "Regional Landmark Stores," originally designed by Starbucks in iconic locations throughout Japan to promote the attractive local culture to the rest of the world.
Starbucks Coffee Dazaifu Tenmangu Omotesando Store is one of Japan's most distinctive Starbucks locations. Designed by architect Kengo Kuma, its striking exterior of interwoven wooden beams combines a modern feel with Japanese aesthetics.
After visiting Dazaifu Tenmangu, sitting down for a cup of coffee and a short break slowed the pace of the trip and felt especially relaxing. -

Aso Shrine (Kumamoto)
The master god who has created Aso, Takei Watatsu no Mikoto, and 12 of his family gods are enshrined here. As the head of Higo Province, this is ranked top over nearly 500 branch Aso Shrines nationwide. Its history goes back more than 2000 years. Its faith is fused with volcano worship that believes Mt. Aso to be a god.
With over 2,000 years of history, Aso Shrine is one of Kyushu's most iconic shrines. As soon as you enter the grounds, you can feel the solemn and peaceful atmosphere. The reconstructed Romon Gate is magnificent and showcases the shrine's historic character. I prayed for a safe journey and admired the intricate wooden architecture and surrounding natural scenery, which made me feel especially relaxed.
