A super popular Okinawa shop specializing in freshly made rice balls~ Its signature item features traditional Okinawan canned luncheon meat (Spam) and a freshly fried thick omelet, sandwiched with fragrant, chewy Niigata-grown Koshihikari rice and specially selected nori. Each one is made fresh after you order, so it’s piping hot when you get it. The outside is crispy, the inside is tender, and the savory, salty flavor really hits the spot. It’s an iconic Okinawan street food that you have to try.

I'm donut ? Nakameguro
I’m donut ? is a specialty takeout donut shop located under the elevated railway tracks, just a 10-second walk from the east exit of Nakameguro Station. You’ll know it by the chic white-themed and glass-paned exterior that just begs you to watch each delicious round fry up close.
東京中目黑的 I'm donut ? 可是本店所在地的傳奇排隊名店！有別於傳統甜甜圈，這家人氣爆棚的夾心生甜甜圈口感軟Q獨特。最喜歡濃郁滑順、堅果香氣十足的開心果口味，不過整體對我來說還是稍微偏甜了一些，只能一次吃一個，配上一杯無糖黑咖啡剛好中和甜度。

Philosopher's Path
A walking path leading from Ginkakuji Temple, one of the most popular sightseeing spots in Japan, to Kumano Nyakuouji Shrine.
The Philosopher's Path is a renowned cherry blossom viewing spot. In spring, when the blossoms are in full bloom, delicate pink Yoshino cherry blossoms flourish along the canal, while fallen petals blanket the path like snow, creating a dreamy, poetic scene. Strolling along the path, you can not only soak in the romantic atmosphere of spring but also feel as though time has slowed down, leaving you refreshed and at peace. It is a breathtaking sight not to be missed when visiting the ancient capital.

Uwajima Castle
Takatora Toudou who is historically famous as a warlord and a master of castle construction built Uwajima Castle at hillside with an altitude of 80 m. The castle experienced major repairs taking about 11 years from 1661 by the second Date lord, Munetoshi Date. The castle is one of the existing 12 castle towers in Japan and was selected as a Nationally designated important cultural property.
The most moving part of visiting Uwajima Castle in Ehime, Shikoku, was seeing firsthand the rustic beauty of one of Japan's precious twelve original castle keeps. This historic castle, first built by renowned castle architect Todo Takatora and later renovated by the Date clan, perfectly preserves the wooden craftsmanship of the Edo period and exudes an elegance and composure refined over time.
I slowly made my way to the top along the lush stone steps and walked through the old-growth forest of Shiroyama Park, where the gentle breeze helped ease much of my fatigue. Upon entering the three-story castle keep, I was greeted by the scent of wood. From the top floor, there were sweeping views of the streets of Uwajima and the blue waters of the Uwa Sea. The scenery of the mountains and sea together was refreshing and uplifting.
