I woke up super early to watch the fish auction at the market. Even though I couldn't understand the shouting, the atmosphere was intense and really exciting.

Mitsui Outlet Park Marine Pia Kobe
Unbeatable location and views over Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge and Awaji Island are what you’ll find at this destination, reopened in November 2024 under the concept MARINE PIA RESORT. The property now ranks in 1.3 times bigger than before at an expanded 99,400 square meters, complete with 150 different shops for fashion, sportswear, outdoor gear, lifestyle goods, and more, plus brands in their first ever outlet shop debut in Kansai and Japan.
Sometimes you can find Japan-exclusive items here if you keep your eyes peeled—it's like finding hidden treasures!

Tokyo Square Garden
A state-of-the-art commercial complex and a landmark in Tokyo's Kyobashi area. Its distinctive shops and restaurants span from the first basement floor to the second floor above ground. Restaurants serve a wide range of cuisines, and some offer terrace seating where diners can enjoy views of the Kyobashi cityscape. Abundant greenery on the building's lower floors gives it the feel of an urban oasis.
There are tons of restaurants to choose from.
It's directly connected to the station,
and it's a short walk to Ginza. -
Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum
A ramen-themed museum featuring regional ramen restaurants from around the world. Sample flavors from renowned restaurants in different regions without boarding a plane. Each restaurant also offers mini ramen, making it easy to compare different varieties.
As soon as you step into the basement, you really feel the retro Showa era vibe. Some of the ramen shops are pretty famous. I tried two and both were delicious. Then I sat in the plaza and had a bottle of milk to cut the greasiness—perfect!
