The squirrels are super cute, but honestly, the smell is a bit much...
If you're planning to visit, it's probably best to come in autumn or winter.

Shiga Kogen
A vast highland in the heart of Joshinetsu Kogen National Park, also designated as one of only nine UNESCO Eco Parks in Japan. With an elevation difference of as much as 1,000 meters, it supports rich vegetation and lets visitors enjoy nature full of diversity. In winter, 18 ski resorts of various sizes open across the area, attracting skiers and snowboarders from all over Japan.
It’s not just a ski area—Shiga Kogen is beautiful in every season, spring, summer, fall, and winter. There are hot springs, too!

Tama Central Park
Tama Central Park is a vast urban park covering Approx. 110,000 square meters, conveniently located about a 5-minute walk from Tama-Center Station.
The café is lovely. The playground equipment is also very clean, and kids will get so caught up playing that they’ll lose track of time.

Sanrio Puroland
Guests can meet Sanrio characters like Hello Kitty and My Melody at this indoor theme park. Sanrio characters put on authentic performances like shows and parades that mix stories, dances, and songs together.
I bought a ton of Sanrio exclusives, and when I walked out there were those gacha machines next door that totally make your eyes spin...
Remember to bring enough coins!〜!
