Ameyoko in Ueno is seriously the best place for shopping! It's like a paradise for affordable goods—some stuff is even cheaper than in Taiwan!

Daisen Park
Sakai City's urban park is adjacent to the Nintoku-tennō-ryō tumulus (Daisen tumulus), which has been designated a World Heritage Site. The vast park of 380,000 m2 is filled with greenery and seasonal flowers and is dotted with large and small tumulus, including the Osamezuka tumulus and the Magodayuyama tumulus.
Daisen Park has been selected as one of Japan's Top 100 Urban Parks and Top 100 Historic Parks. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

Narita International Airport
The international airport and gateway to Tokyo, visited by 44 million travelers each year (as of 2019). Opened in 1978, this world-famous airport (airport code NRT) has ferried over 6 million flights both in and out of Japan. The airport grounds include 3 different passenger terminals, a freight terminal and is currently planning to open a new runaway in addition to its two runways currently open.
Narita Airport has introduced a lot of new high-tech safety measures so travelers can feel secure when going through departure procedures. They've really made a lot of thoughtful arrangements. It's pretty impressive!

GALA Yuzawa Snow Resort
It is a ski resort with convenient access, approximately 74 minutes from Tokyo Station via the Joetsu Shinkansen, and the slopes are directly connected to "GALA-Yuzawa Station". Furthermore, it is open until early May, and is popular for skiing and snowboarding until Golden Week.
GALA Yuzawa Snow Resort is super convenient to get to, which attracts a lot of ski lovers. The conditions and terrain at GALA are also really great—love it!
