It was fascinating to see the traditional Japanese way of preparing salmon. The salmon's fierce expression during the drying process was a little scary, too.

Takamatsu Symbol Tower
Standing 151.3 meters tall, the tower of Takamatsu Symbol Tower is the tallest building in Shikoku. Located just a 5-minute walk from the Takamatsu Port ferry terminal and 3 minutes from JR Takamatsu Station, it is ideally situated as a gateway for exploring Kagawa.
The whole building has a really modern design, and the elevator takes you up to the higher floors in no time. The observation deck offers an amazing view—you can see Takamatsu Port, the Seto Inland Sea, and the city all at once. On a clear day, it's super relaxing. The space inside is clean and comfortable, not crowded or noisy. Overall, it's a chill spot that's great for taking photos and perfect for a casual stroll to enjoy the scenery.

Yomiuriland
Yomiuriland is the historic, representative amusement park of Tokyo that is located in the area spanning across Inagi, Tokyo and Kawasaki, Kanagawa.
The environment is really comfortable, and there are lots of rides you can enjoy. I kind of hope not too many people find out about this park! 🤭

Hachinohe Sansha Taisai
Held annually over five days from July 31 to August 4, Hachinohe Sansha Taisai is a grand joint festival involving Ogami Shrine, Chojasan Shinra Shrine, and Shinmei Shrine. Originating in 1721, it boasts over 300 years of history and tradition and is recognized as the largest festival in the Hachinohe region. In February 2004, it was designated as a national Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property, and in December 2016, it was inscribed on UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list.
The festival atmosphere hits you as soon as you arrive. The streets are packed with people, all waiting to see the parade floats.
