Taking the cable car up to Mt. Hiei is super convenient and quick. You can see views of Kyoto along the way, and if you go in the right season, it's even more beautiful.

MACHI café
LAWSON is a convenience store chain with approximately 14,500 stores across Japan. In addition to selling food and daily necessities, LAWSON also focuses on product development, including freshly brewed in-store coffee and sweets. One of its signature services is MACHI café.
There are five pieces in a box. It’s not a large portion, but it’s just right for an afternoon snack. The chicken isn’t too dry, and it’s well seasoned. The slight spiciness also keeps it from getting too heavy. Paired with an iced coffee or unsweetened tea, it makes a simple and satisfying afternoon snack.

Iwate Hanamaki Airport
As Iwate’s aerial gateway, this mid-sized airport operates regular domestic flights to Sapporo, Nagoya, Osaka, Kobe, and Fukuoka. Internationally, two weekly flights run to Taipei (as of July 2025, the Shanghai route remains suspended).
There weren't enough staff at the international service counter, so things moved a bit slowly.

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.
The big red lantern hanging at Sensoji Temple is one of its most iconic features!
