This is the best tempura I've ever had. Even the overall dining environment was fantastic.

Laview
“Laview” is the express train that hit the rails as of 2019 on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line, connecting Ikebukuro and Seibu Chichibu Stations in just 77 minutes. Hop on for an easy day trip to the Chichibu area with plenty of time make it back to central Tokyo on the same day, making it the savvy way to zip up and explore Chichibu on the fly.
The front of the train looks super unique, almost like a spaceship—very futuristic! The windows are huge, so you get an amazing view of the scenery along the way.

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.
The huge tanks really showcase the underwater ecosystem. The whale shark is definitely the star, but there are also seals, dolphins, rays, and more. There's even an area where you can interact directly with some of the animals.

Tanize Suspension Bridge
Tanize Suspension Bridge was built by the villagers in 1954 for daily use during the post-war reconstruction period. Surrounded by majestic mountains, it is one of the longest steel suspension bridges in Japan. The bridge connects Ueno and Tanize and is 297 meters long and 54 meters high.
The wooden planks on the suspension bridge looked old, and the cables seemed rusty. It feels like it hasn't been well maintained for years, which made me a bit nervous.
