When you visit Nara, besides seeing the deer, don't forget to try a jar of the popular dessert, Daibutsu Pudding! There are several locations in the city, so it's best to buy it at the end of your itinerary. It's also convenient to take on the train and enjoy at your leisure. The pudding has a dense, smooth texture, with mild yet rich egg and milk flavors, and it isn't overly sweet. The cute glass jar can be washed and taken home as a keepsake, and the decorative lid makes it even more delightful.

Ferris Wheel Kururin
The Ferris wheel Kururin has a diameter of 45 meters, and from the ground to its highest point spans 85 meters. It has also become a new iconic symbol of Matsuyama.
This landmark Ferris wheel is located on the ninth-floor rooftop of the Iyotetsu Takashimaya department store in Matsuyama, with its highest point about 85 meters above the ground. It offers 360-degree views of the Ehime cityscape, Matsuyama Castle, and the Seto Inland Sea. At night, colorful lights illuminate the sky, creating a romantic and enchanting atmosphere.

Yurakucho Marui
The “Yurakucho ITOCiA” commercial complex stands in front of the ticket gates of JR Yurakucho Station. The Yurakucho Marui fashion mall occupies the first through eighth floors.
Yurakucho Marui combines fashion, lifestyle goods, and dining in a comfortable shopping environment filled with greenery. Its biggest feature is its active promotion of subcultures, with a large area dedicated to anime and gaming events. It frequently hosts pop-up exhibitions and themed events featuring popular IPs. There was even a pop-up café featuring beautiful girl characters before, but unfortunately, I missed it. It was a shame.
