Because Kyoto is a protected cultural heritage site, no building can be taller than Kiyomizu-dera. You can get a really clear view of the whole city from here.

Ikebukuro PARCO
Located in Ikebukuro, Toshima City, Tokyo, this shopping mall has been a landmark since its opening in 1969 as the first PARCO branch in Japan. Known for curating the latest trends in fashion and lifestyle, it has remained a favorite destination, particularly among younger generations. In 1994, the annex P’PARCO was also opened to expand its offerings.
The layout is a bit winding, but it’s still enjoyable to walk around and explore. It feels more relaxed than the department stores in Shinjuku or Shibuya—not overwhelming at all.

Fukuyama Auto & Clock Museum
The Fukuyama Auto & Clock Museum showcases a remarkable collection of classic cars from Japan and around the world, as well as antique clocks. Dedicated to hands-on exhibits, the museum encourages visitors not only to look but also to take photos freely, and in most cases, even sit inside the vehicles, offering a rare and memorable experience unlike typical museums.
This place is paradise for classic car fans! There are so many vintage cars on display. Besides cars, there are all kinds of clocks too—super unique!

Kamigamo Shrine (Kamowakeikazuchi Shrine)
In ancient times, Kamowakeikazuchi-no-okami, the god of the shrine, descended to the mountain northwest of the main shrine, and the Kamo clan, a powerful local family, built a shrine building in 678, and it is the oldest shrine in Kyoto.
Among the many shrines in Kyoto, this one has a lot of historical significance. The grounds are spacious and it's pretty quiet, so it's a great place to relax and clear your mind.
