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~

Nikko Toshogu
Nikko Toshogu is a shrine dedicated to the Edo shogun Ieyasu Tokugawa. It is the most visited spot within the World Heritage Site “Shrines and Temples of Nikko,” and here you can see 55 exceptional buildings, including 8 that have been designated as national treasures and 34 that have been designated as Important Cultural Properties.
I've seen pictures of Nikko Toshogu's gorgeous buildings in travel guides. The shrine is dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu, one of Japan's most important heroes. This place holds a lot of significance for Japanese history and culture.
