It wasn't as good as I expected. The boat ride took almost an hour and honestly, it got a bit boring.

Otaru Canal
Otaru Port, which developed as a gateway for Hokkaido's settlement, saw an increasing volume of cargo over the years. To streamline its transportation, the "Otaru Canal" was completed in 1923 (Taisho 12). The canal, created by reclaiming the offshore coast, is characterized by its gentle curves rather than a straight line.
Walking along the canal really makes you slow down and relax.
It’s one of the classic Hokkaido spots — if you skip it, it feels like you’re missing something. -

Kyoto Takashimaya S.C.
Perched on the southwest corner of the bustling Shijo Kawaramachi intersection in Kyoto, this large-scale retailer keeps a long and bold history since its infancy as the “Takashimaya” vintage clothing cotton merchant that founded in the local year of Tempo 2 (1831). The brand moved to Kawaramachi-Takatsuji as the first privately-owned, reinforced concrete commercial building during the Meiji era in 1912, and has since then moved to its current spot as a market center in 1946.
It’s right at Shijo Kawaramachi, so the location couldn’t be more convenient. You can even stroll around the old streets before or after shopping!

Roppongi Hills "Observatory Tokyo City View"
Roppongi Hills features an indoor observation corridor, "Tokyo City View". Tickets can be purchased at the general ticket counter on the third floor, and visitors can then take a dedicated elevator to the 52nd floor.
Located right in the city center, this is the best spot to enjoy Tokyo's night view. The rooftop is open with no obstructions, so you can take amazing photos.
