Namba Yasaka Shrine is a small shrine in a residential area. As soon as you enter the gate, you can see the huge lion's mouth—it's even bigger and more impressive than I expected! This shrine is said to ward off bad luck and bring good fortune!

Houkokuji Temple
This Kamakura temple received a three-star rating in the Michelin Green Guide Japan, a tourist guidebook aimed at overseas visitors to Japan.
The architecture really has that Japanese Zen vibe. The peaceful and quiet environment is perfect for a slow stroll.

Vegan Plant-based Pucchin Pudding
"Plant-based Pucchin Purin" is part of the "Pucchin Purin" series, which has long been loved since first being sold in 1972. The pudding is made entirely with plant-based ingredients and does not contain any animal products.
You can buy this at convenience stores everywhere, and it's really tasty!

Umeda Sky Building / Kuchu Teien Observatory
The 40-story, twin super high-rise was completed in 1993. The two towers are connected on top. In England, it was selected into the “Top 20” list of world buildings as a thrilling skyscraper. The beauty of the building itself is part of its popularity. On the 3rd floor, there is a gate for the elevators to shoot you up to the 35th floor.
We took the elevator straight up to the 40th-floor observatory. The view from up there is stunning! After that, we went down to the 39th floor, where there are lots of souvenirs to buy and a café to relax in. Visiting here was totally worth it!
