Visiting the lake on a winter morning, the mist rising from the water creates a dreamy, mysterious vibe. It really adds to the atmosphere.

Nakasu Yataigai (food stall street)
In the gourmet city Hakata, Nakasu Yataigai lets you experience specialized gourmet food - ramen, skewered food, Oden, etc. to go with sake and other drinks. Naka River runs through Kyushu’s busiest downtown, Nakasu. Bright neon lights sparkle on the water and it is quite a sight that all kinds of food stalls are lined along the river! Strolling along the river allows you to catch the energy of the city.
Sitting at a tiny stall, eating and chatting—the vibe is just awesome. I highly recommend coming when the weather’s nice so you can enjoy the riverside night view while you eat. It’s extra romantic.

Naruto City: Fun on a Fishing Raft
Uchinoumi lies northeast of Naruto City, Tokushima Prefecture. Floating on these calm waters, surrounded by Shimada Island and Oge Island, are aquaculture rafts once used when pearl farming flourished in the area. Today, visitors can enjoy fishing, BBQs, and other activities on the water.
I was a bit nervous at first, but the ocean view from the raft totally won me over. The water beneath is crystal clear, and it's so peaceful all around—just the sound of the sea breeze and the water. The whole experience is super chill. You can paddle slowly, or just lie down and relax—some people do that! It really feels like becoming one with nature and the sea. Perfect for anyone wanting to slow down and try something different!
