I couldn't quite figure out the proper way to pray at Izumo Taisha. I noticed the locals did it differently, which made me a bit flustered. But I believe sincerity matters most—I'm sure the gods won't be upset with me. 😅

Tokyu Plaza Ginza
This is a large business complex that displays the charm of traditions and innovation coexisting in the Ginza area. Inside, there are shops that combine trends and formality with the concept of "Creative Japan 〜The world will become more interesting from here〜".
The interior design is stylish and modern.
There’s an open rest area and a rooftop garden upstairs, so it’s not just for shopping — you can also sit down, have a coffee, and enjoy the view.
They carry a good range of items, from clothing to small accessories. -

Kaiyukan
Celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2020, this aquarium is located in Osaka. The aquarium, which recreates the natural environment surrounding the Pacific Ocean, is home to a total of 620 species and 30,000 living things.
It was super crowded during summer vacation. I skipped a lot of animal areas because there were just too many people.

Sensoji Temple
This iconic destination in Asakusa sees as many as 30 million visitors each year. It stands as a well-loved mainstay in Tokyo, all while hosting a number of annual traditions like the first temple visit at New Years, Setsubun and more across the year.
When you think of Asakusa, you think of the big lantern at Kaminarimon. The Wind and Thunder Gods guard Sensoji Temple on both sides. After passing through the huge lantern, you reach a bustling shopping street packed with people.
