Cow Brand Red Box

Old-Fashioned Soap that Gently and Thoroughly Cleans

13 Nov 2026 See More

I use this classic COW BRAND milk soap from Japan quite often. Since my skin is sensitive, I pay close attention to the ingredients when choosing cleansing products. This soap feels very gentle and comfortable, with no irritation at all.

Although there is also a Blue Box in the same series, I personally prefer the Red Box. It has a light, soft rose scent that makes me feel very relaxed after a shower. It’s easy to see why this long-established Japanese household brand has remained popular over the years. The quality is very consistent, and I sincerely recommend it to anyone who likes a gentle cleansing experience.

Bic Camera AKIBA

This large electronics retailer stands out at the intersection of Chuo-dori and Kanda Myojin-dori, two streets in Akihabara lined with electronics retailers and anime shops. It is popular for its extensive selection, wide range of services, and convenient location just a 3-minute walk from the Electric Town Exit of Akihabara Station. The store spans seven floors, from the 1st through the 7th, and carries not only home and beauty appliances but also a wide variety of other products, including games, toys, and alcoholic beverages.

On this trip to Japan, I specifically added BIC CAMERA in Akihabara to my itinerary to look for the Gorilla Grip massager everyone recommended. The entire store is huge, and the selection is very complete. You really can get all your shopping done in one place. It has everything from popular beauty appliances and all kinds of toys that kids love to detailed Studio Ghibli puzzles and drugstore products. Best of all, you can get your tax exemption processed right there, and it’s even more affordable when combined with an exclusive discount coupon. The store is also close to the station, so after shopping with bags in both hands, it’s super convenient to take the train straight back to the hotel.

I was very happy that I managed to get the Gorilla Grip this time. As soon as I got back to the hotel, I immediately took it out to soothe and relax my extremely sore legs after walking all day. Recommended for travelers who like to buy all their souvenirs in one place.

The first time I tried Alfort chocolate biscuits was when a friend brought them back from Japan as a souvenir, and I liked them right away. The bite-sized biscuits paired with rich bittersweet chocolate had a sweetness that wasn't overwhelming and left a strong impression on me.

Later, when I traveled to Japan myself, I would look for them whenever I visited a supermarket or convenience store. What I looked forward to most was often discovering unexpected local or seasonal limited-edition flavors. The crispy biscuits paired with different flavors of chocolate are really hard to stop eating. They're a Japanese snack I always buy to satisfy my cravings whenever I go to Japan, and personally, I really like them.
Sendai Umino-Mori Aquarium

The largest aquarium in Tohoku Region near Sendai Port, which was opened in 2015 as “the aquarium to symbolize a recovery.” Creatures around Sanriku Coast and the world are displayed.

Because I really enjoy visiting zoos and aquariums, I’m always looking for them whenever I travel. I’ve visited aquariums of all sizes across Japan, and Sendai Umino-Mori Aquarium in Miyagi has one of the best layouts. The whole place feels comfortable and spacious. As the largest aquarium in the Tohoku region, it has an enormous, breathtaking tank, and standing in front of it while taking in the blue underwater world is truly soothing. The outdoor dolphin show venue is also very well designed, with excellent views and shaded areas where you can comfortably enjoy the show.

Besides the large-scale exhibits, you can also see adorable penguins and incredibly cute otters up close. They’re so cute they’ll melt your heart. After visiting the aquarium, I highly recommend trying the local flavors at ramen ONE, a ramen shop next door that’s very popular with locals. The broth there is rich, and at lunchtime the restaurant is filled almost entirely with local Japanese office workers. It gets very busy, so I suggest avoiding peak dining hours when lining up and experiencing the appeal of authentic Japanese ramen.
