There are lots of restaurants and snack shops along the old street, offering all kinds of tasty food. The Hida beef is especially tender and flavorful—definitely a must-try!

Hitenryu
Located in Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture, Hitenryu is a yakiniku restaurant run by three brothers who carry on the founder’s vision of establishing a true yakiniku culture in the city. The restaurant is well regarded by locals for its selection of rare cuts of Noto beef and Noto pork.
The food is more on the hearty, no-frills side—not the delicate, refined type. Plating is pretty basic, but the focus is definitely on flavor.
Service speed is decent. During peak hours it gets crowded, so you may have to wait a bit.
The vibe inside is lively, great for coming with friends, but it’s not really the place for a quiet chat. -
Tokyo Disneyland
Known and loved as the “kingdom of dreams and magic”, this full-scale themepark is just a 15 min. train ride from Tokyo Station.
There are so many classic and new attractions in the park, perfect for visitors of all ages. Every ride is thoughtfully designed and really immersive.

Naoshima Bath "I♥湯"
This art facility was designed by artist Shinro Ohtake, and here visitors can actually stop and take a bath. It was created as a place to facilitate interaction between tourists, both domestic and foreign, and the Naoshima islanders.
The outside of the bathhouse is covered in colorful tiles. I heard it's the work of a famous Japanese artist. I didn't have time to take a bath this time, but I hope I can come back and try it next time.
