This is the only shrine in Japan dedicated to Konosuke Matsushita, the founder of Panasonic. You can visit it together with Ise Jingu.

Kamitori, Kumamoto City Central Shopping Arcade
This shopping arcade is 600 meters long and 11 meters wide, with Ipe wood decking laid down the center of the walkway for a gentle, comfortable stroll. Surrounded by cultural attractions such as Kumamoto Castle, the Prefectural Museum of Art, the Prefectural Traditional Crafts Center, and the Contemporary Art Museum Kumamoto, it is a popular stop for visitors exploring Kumamoto.
One of the liveliest spots in Kumamoto. Food, shopping, and plenty to browse—all in one place.
The shopping arcade is super long and very comfortable to walk through, and the roof is a huge plus when it rains. -
Oyster & Smoked BAR SANGO
Over in Hiroshima Station’s West Exit area (nicknamed “Ekinishi”) sits Oyster & Smoked BAR SANGO, an authentic oyster bar serving up local Hiroshima oysters and bites from across Japan in raw, grilled, fried, steamed plates and more.
Such a great vibe! The raw oysters are super fresh, and the smoked dishes are really flavorful without being too salty. They pair perfectly with drinks. The lighting inside is a bit dim, but it feels classy—perfect for a casual drink, a chat, or even a date. Overall, an awesome experience!

Mount Miune
A mountain with an elevation of 1,235 m that straddles Mitsue Village in eastern Nara Prefecture and Matsusaka City and Tsu City in Mie Prefecture. Designated as part of Murou Akame Aoyama Quasi-National Park and counted among Japan’s 300 Famous Mountains, it offers nature that changes beautifully with the seasons. Hacchodaira, a plain-like area spreading out just below the summit on the Mie side, is a popular scenic viewpoint.
The air here is super fresh, and the whole place feels so მშვიდ and serene. The hike up is a little challenging, but the views are absolutely worth it.
The forest along the way is really dense, so it stays cool in the summer. In the fall, you get to see the mountains covered in red leaves. So beautiful~
