Take the cable car up and then walk down—the route isn't too long. There aren't a lot of cats along the way, but there are some creative shops all themed around cats.

Cape Soya
Cape Soya is the northernmost tip of mainland Japan. The monument "Northernmost Point of Japan" stands proudly at latitude 45 degrees 31 minutes 22 seconds, making it an excellent photo spot. The monument is designed as a cone that reflects the facet of the North Star, a symbol of the northern lands.
This is one of those places that’s like, “once is enough, but you’d regret it if you never came.”

Motonosumi Shrine
The Motonosumi Shrine, located in Yuyatsuo, Nagato City, is said to be a power spot in Yamaguchi.
It's in Yamaguchi Prefecture, and the most famous thing here is the long row of red torii gates stretching all the way down to the sea—it's seriously breathtaking. No matter how you take photos, they always turn out amazing. The ocean view from above is so soothing, especially on a clear day with the blue sky and waves—the colors are just dreamy!

Kitazawa Flotation Plant
The Aikawa Gold and Silver Mine, the largest of Sado’s gold mines, was in operation from the early Edo period until 1989. In the Kitazawa district, the ruins of the Kitazawa Flotation Plant remain-a facility built to meet the demand for mass production of gold and silver during wartime. Structures from the early Showa period still stand today, and the site has been designated a National Historic Site as a valuable piece of industrial heritage.
This is a ruin site with huge concrete buildings covered in greenery—it feels straight out of a fantasy movie. Walking inside, you can sense the traces of the mining boom from the past, but now it's become an awesome spot for photos. There's a bit of a mysterious vibe, so if you're into ruins or historical places, you'll love it.
