The shopping street outside Dazaifu is full of local specialties like plum cakes, mentaiko, and handmade rice crackers. The Starbucks designed by Kengo Kuma is a super popular photo spot. There’s just so much to explore along the whole Omotesando!

Lucky Pierrot Bay Area Main Store
Founded in 1987, this is the very first location of a popular hamburger chain that now operates 17 stores mainly in Hakodate. In addition to classic items like hamburg steaks, they offer more than ten unique original burgers, including one filled with jingisukan (grilled mutton), showcasing a truly creative lineup.
The place looks kind of retro and cute from the outside, and as soon as you walk in, you're hit with the amazing smell of burgers. The burgers aren't fancy, but they're big, hearty, and have a real American vibe. Super satisfying with every bite. The fries are pretty good too—crispy and flavorful.

Yoyogi Park
The large 544,711.27㎡ site of this park is filled with water and greenery, something that you don’t often find in the heart of Tokyo. During springtime around 800 cherry trees blossom beautifully, and the area around the south side’s fountain is particularly popular as a cherry blossom viewing location.
Inside the park, there's a gym designed by Japanese architect Kenzo Tange for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. The building's unique look really blends Japanese style elements.
