The entire venue is set up with thoughtful lighting and sound effects, plus there's a guide who patiently explains everything one-on-one. It really helps you understand what daily life was like during the Edo period. Highly recommend checking it out!

Okinawa Outlet Mall Ashibinaa
Okinawa Prefecture’s first outlet mall, located near the beach at Toyosaki Seaside Park. The name “Ashibinaa” means “playground” in the Okinawan language, reflecting the vision of creating a place where people of all generations can gather. The mall was designed by John Low, an internationally active architectural designer who has won major competitions.
The food court isn't very big, but there are a few Okinawan dishes worth trying. Overall, it's not tiring to walk around, and it's a great place for some serious shopping!

Kagurazaka
Kagurazaka, in Shinjuku, Tokyo, first got its start as a bustling geisha district. Visitors here will find a large shopping street that’s home to trendy shops and cafes, but just a few steps from the main drag sits a few cozy, veteran Japanese eateries, chic cobblestone streets and black, wood-latticed fences.
It really reminds me of Hanamikoji Street in Kyoto. There are lots of upscale restaurants and old shops, giving you a taste of traditional Tokyo.

Koto-ku Basho Museum
Haiku Poet, Matsuo Basho, was active in the 1600s. He resided in Fukagawa, Koto-ku, which was the departure point of his famous travel journal, “Oku-no-Hosomichi,” covering the Tohoku and Hokuriku regions. Basho Museum is built in his hometown, showing his life and personality with panels and replicas.
A small but beautiful and peaceful museum where you can really get to know the life of Matsuo Basho.
