Ameyoko in Ueno is a great place to shop and there are so many delicious foods to try. It's lively even at night~ Every time I come to Japan, I can really feel the strong traditional Japanese vibe here.

Shibamata Taishakuten Sando
Katsushika Shibamata has been chosen by the country itself as one of Japan’s iconic scenic spots. It’s also no exaggeration to say that Shibamata Taishakuten and its approach are iconic parts of Tokyo’s shitamachi (old town) areas that possess striking atmosphere and appearance.
Taishakuten Sando—you can't miss Takagiya, the long-established shop! Their famous Kusadango from Katsushika is just so delicious.

TENJIN CHIKAGAI
Tenjin area is located in Fukuoka City Chuo-ward, Kyushu’s largest downtown district. Going through the street is Watanabe Street, and to the north, Showa street. To the south is Tenjin Chikagai, an underground street, 600m in length running under Kokutai Street. There are 12 districts, with 150 shops such as apparel, gourmet food, sundries, and books.
Tenjin Chikagai has a kind of fake European design that makes you feel like you're in Europe~ It's really comfortable to walk around and shop here~ Highly recommend!

Tower of Osaka Castle
Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who unified the country during the Azuchi-Momoyama period (1568-1600), began construction of the tower of Osaka Castle in 1583 and completed it in 1585. The castle was later destroyed during the Osaka Natsu no Jin（summer campaign of Osaka） in 1615, but was rebuilt by the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1626. However, the castle keep was destroyed by lightning in 1665. In 1931, the castle tower of the Toyotomi period was reconstructed with donations from Osaka citizens.
The exhibits and the way history is presented inside the castle tower are lively and engaging. The architecture of the tower itself is impressive from every angle~
