At Namba Yasaka Shrine, during the summer festival, they have lion dances and other performances as offerings. The lion's eyes light up, and there are speakers in its nose for stage shows. It's a really unique festival!

Kojoji Temple / Shiomachi Shopping Street
This temple was built on Mt. Choon, northeast of Setoda Port, in 1400. Since ancient times, it has been revered as the temple to protect the town from disasters and blessed it with prosperity. Near the top of the mountain, a vermilion three-storied pagoda was built in 1432, which is designated as a national treasure. Looking it up from the ground is divine, but if you go up the mountain further, it offers a beautiful view of the tower against the Setoda Town and the sea.
I really love the vibe of this old town. I walked around here for about two hours—it was fantastic.

Togoshi Ginza Shopping Street & TOGOSHIGINZA Information Center
Stretching approximately 1.3km east to west from Tokyu Ikegami Line's Togoshi Ginza Station, this shopping district boasts around 400 establishments ranging from fresh produce stores to cafes, bakeries, and bathhouses.
When you come here, you have to try walking around with a croquette or soft serve in hand. It's so much fun to snack as you stroll and enjoy the atmosphere of the old downtown area! 👍

Yomiuriland
Yomiuriland is the historic, representative amusement park of Tokyo that is located in the area spanning across Inagi, Tokyo and Kawasaki, Kanagawa.
I love their free fall ride! You definitely have to try the "Crazy Free Fall." It slowly takes you up to 60 meters above the ground and then drops you in an instant. Super fun! 👍
