You get to enjoy the outdoor scenery the whole way. The staff even sing and interact with passengers, which makes for a fantastic atmosphere. Totally worth checking out!

Hakodate Yunokawa Onsen Umi to Akari/ Hewitt Resort
Located in Yunokawa Onsen-one of Hokkaido’s three major hot spring resorts-this seaside retreat offers a luxurious stay overlooking the Tsugaru Strait. The highlight is the rooftop infinity open-air bath, where the horizon blends seamlessly with the sea and sky. At night, guests can enjoy the enchanting view of the moon and the glowing lights of fishing boats that inspired the hotel’s name, “Umi to Akari” (Sea and Light). Watching the moonlight shimmer on the water while sipping local Hakodate sake is an unforgettable experience.
The overall vibe is minimalist Japanese style, but every detail is spot on. You really get that "luxurious but not flashy" feeling here.

TV Asahi Atrium
The TV Asahi headquarters is the beloved broadcast home of “Doraemon” and other classic, famous anime. Located inside Roppongi Hills, some of the studio grounds are even open to browse and explore.
Visiting the TV Asahi Atrium is a great chance to experience how modern media operates. It's also a window into Japanese media culture.

Atomic Bomb Dome (Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park)
The Atomic Bomb Dome, in its original design, was completed as the Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotional Hall, by Czech architect Jan Letzel on April 5th, 1915. However, as it stood just 160 meters from the epicenter of the atomic bomb, it suffered severe damage from the blast. With a gutted steel frame and damaged exterior, its known colloquially as the Atomic Bomb Dome, a building that stands in testament to the tragic history unfolded here.
With all the recent news about the Russia-Ukraine war, I can't help but feel really worried.
