In autumn, the street in front of the Samurai Residences is covered with red maple leaves and golden ginkgo. After sunset, you can enjoy the night maples, which are also beautiful. It gets pretty chilly in Tohoku at night, so make sure to dress warmly.

The 3D Cat at Shinjuku East Exit
Located above the East Exit plaza of Shinjuku Station, one of the busiest train stations in the world, the giant 3D calico cat peers down at passersby in a dynamic video display. Since its debut in July 2021, the lifelike, seemingly popping-out 3D cat has captured widespread attention and has been featured in both domestic and international media.
Seeing it for the first time really made me freeze for a second.
I was just thinking, that cat looks way too real. -

ACAO FOREST
Spanning an impressive 200,000 tsubo of hillside terrain, ACAO FOREST is a resort park made up of 13 unique gardens and scattered art installations. With sweeping views of the deep “Atami Blue” Pacific Ocean, visitors can stroll among seasonal blooms while also enjoying outdoor artworks that enrich the landscape.
The park is huge! You can walk through and see different themed gardens along the way, with flowers blooming in every season. If you make it up the hill, you'll get a stunning ocean view—perfect for photos. It's a great spot to spend a relaxing and romantic afternoon just strolling around! 🌹

Nagoya Castle
One of the largest castles in Japan, built in the early Edo period on the orders of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Edo shogunate, the five-story castle tower is topped with shining two Kinshachi, one male and one female that has become a symbol of Nagoya.
Nagoya Castle is so grand and impressive—it's huge and definitely a landmark of the area.
