Right next to Hakone Shrine is Kuzuryu Shrine. It's said that if you wash your hands and rinse your mouth with the water from the dragon god's fountain, it will wash away your bad luck.

Tosu Premium Outlets
Tosu Premium Outlets is one of Kyushu's largest outlet malls, complete with 170 highly sought after domestic and worldwide brands. The property is inspired by the architecture and open atmosphere of Southern California, and infused with a resort-like relaxed air that shoppers love. Guests with kids will love that there are plenty of nursing rooms and a playground for children.
The prices here are much better compared to department stores in Fukuoka city. It's a great place to add to your Fukuoka or Saga itinerary.

Sagano Romantic Train
The Sagano Romantic Train runs along a restored section of the former San’in Main Line. Pulled by a diesel locomotive, its classic Art Deco-style passenger cars travel 7.3 km from Torokko Saga Station, next to JR Saga-Arashiyama Station, to Torokko Kameoka Station in about 25 minutes each way.
You can even hear the familiar Banyan Tree song on the little train. Turns out, it's actually a staff member in costume and a mask! 🤭

Senkoji Temple
Located about halfway up Mt. Senkoji, Senkoji Temple has a long history dating back to its founding in 806. The main hall, also known as the “Red Hall,” is painted a vivid vermilion. Its striking color forms a picturesque contrast with the blue sky and sea and the surrounding greenery. The temple sells a variety of amulets for wishes such as road safety, family well-being, success in exams, and good relationships.
Standing at Senkoji Temple, you get a fantastic panoramic view of Onomichi City.
