I recommend getting the combo ticket: one ride on the Botchan Ressha, round-trip on the Matsuyama Castle ropeway, entry to the castle tower, and the Ninomaru historical site. It's just 1,700 JPY, which is a great deal! The Botchan Ressha is super popular and tickets often sell out. There are only 8 to 10 runs a day.

Shiroi Koibito Park
Shiroi Koibito is a well-known brand of sweets in Hokkaido. At Shiroi Koibito Park, you can tour the production line, learn the history of chocolate from the display, and create your own Shiroi Koibito snack.
The park is beautifully decorated and has a European fairy-tale vibe.
You can see how Shiroi Koibito cookies are made, and walking around isn’t too tiring.
It’s also very convenient for picking up souvenirs.
A nice spot to add to your itinerary. -

Men to Kakigori Dogyan
Located near Tanimachi 4-chome Station in Osaka, this distinctive restaurant serves an unusual combination of ramen and shaved ice. The clean, predominantly white interior has a relaxed atmosphere where solo female diners can feel comfortable. With approximately 24 seats, there is plenty of space to savor both your meal and dessert.
So special! Their noodles are seriously delicious. The place is clean with a bit of an artsy vibe, and the service is awesome too. Highly recommend!

Tama Center Illumination
Illuminations in front of Tama-Center Station, an area where you can meet Hello Kitty. Approximately 400,000 lights illuminate a spacious pedestrian promenade measuring 400 meters from north to south and 200 meters from east to west. The 58 camphor trees lining Parthenon Boulevard glow in champagne gold, while the Aquarium of Light, which feels like a walk beneath the sea, and displays featuring Hello Kitty and other Sanrio characters brighten the area.
The place is covered with all kinds of shiny, colorful lights. The plaza was packed with people, and it really felt like Christmas.
