It was my first time seeing such a large Ferris wheel at a highway rest stop. It really made me feel that the Japanese are very good at planning tourist facilities. Looking at Mt. Fuji in the distance made me feel completely relaxed.

Ikaho Onsen
Ikaho Onsen has been cherished since ancient times, even appearing in the Man'yoshu poetry anthology, and is said to have been beloved by literary figures such as Yumeji Takehisa and Roka Tokutomi.
The old stone steps and street have a great atmosphere. It's fun to snack as you walk along. Taking a stroll after a hot spring bath is just perfect.

SEASCAPE TERRACE DINING
This dining venue offers panoramic views of the Tokyo skyline across the water, along with a varied buffet tailored to each time of day. Sunlight streams into the restaurant during the day, while Tokyo’s glittering nightscape unfolds before you after sunset. From spring through fall, relax on the terrace and enjoy the view with a pleasant breeze.
There are so many options here—roast beef, seafood, veggies, desserts, and everything is super well-prepared. Plus, the view from the terrace is absolutely gorgeous.

[Closed Down]Tamahide Ichino
This is a sister restaurant to "Tamahide" the long-standing chicken restaurant in Ningyocho established in 1760. They are also well known as the originator of chicken and egg on rice.
This historic restaurant has been around for over a hundred years. The eggs are thick and silky, and the chicken is super tasty. If you're at Skytree, you definitely shouldn't miss this place.
