Yaesu has quite a few unique stores, and it's very comfortable to browse around. The modern mall design is also great for photos. This time, I also found the delicious NewYork Perfect Cheese cheese butter cookies. There are lots of cartoon merchandise, from plush toys to all kinds of everyday items, and I couldn't stop looking at them. They're just so cute! If you like this kind of thing, it's easy to browse for so long that you won't want to leave, and when you find something you like, you'll keep wondering whether to take it home as a souvenir.

Great Seto Bridge
Great Seto Bridge connects Okayama Prefecture on the main Island and Kagawa Prefecture on Shikoku Island. This name is for all the six bridges that stretch for 9.4km (5.8 miles) over the channel. Different types such as suspension bridge, cable-stayed bridge, and truss bridge are connected together.
The Great Seto Bridge was even more spectacular than I imagined! The bridges span the Seto Inland Sea one after another. From a distance, they look like several massive bridges linked together, stretching to the other side of the sea. The view is truly breathtaking.
Standing by the bridge and looking at the massive structure against the sea, you realize how impressive the engineering is. You can also feel the bridge’s height and scale while driving across it, with views of the Seto Inland Sea along the way. The whole scene feels very grand.

Gion Shopping Street
A shopping street located along the approach from Shijo Ohashi Bridge and Gion-Shijo Station to Yasaka Shrine. Centered on Shijo Street, long-established shops and specialty stores line Yamatooji Street, Hanamikoji Street, Higashioji Street, and more. This local shopping district values Gion’s long history and is deeply involved in traditional events such as the Gion Festival. Many of its shops are popular not only with tourists but also with locals, making it a great place to enjoy dining, shopping, and strolling while experiencing Kyoto’s traditions.
What caught my attention most about Kyoto’s Gion Shopping Street was the neat, uniform signs lining both sides of the street. The whole area has Kyoto’s distinctive old-fashioned charm, and you can really feel the strong Japanese atmosphere just walking down the street!
There are lots of shops to browse, offering everything from souvenirs and Kyoto-themed items to all kinds of food and desserts. It’s easy to lose track of time while walking around and browsing!
If you enjoy taking leisurely walks and seeing Kyoto’s streetscapes, Gion Shopping Street is definitely worth adding to your itinerary. You can take photos along the way, buy some Kyoto souvenirs, and experience Gion’s distinctive street atmosphere.
