Most of the shops here are high-end brands and designer boutiques. The atmosphere is elegant and it never feels too crowded, which makes shopping really pleasant. Besides shopping, I also recommend checking out the window displays or visiting the exhibitions they hold from time to time!

Yumiharidake Observatory
Towering from the western side of central Sasebo City in Nagasaki Prefecture, Mt. Yumihari rises to an elevation of 364 meters and offers one of Sasebo’s most stunning panoramic views. Make your way to the summit for a view out over Sasebo Port, a common port for massive cruise ships and Japan Self-Defense Force vessels to anchor, plus the glittering cityscape nestled around the bay. Looking westward, the horizon stretches out to the Goto-nada Sea and the scattered islands of the Kujuku Islands, creating a breathtaking coastal vista.
The view from Yumiharidake Observatory is so wide and open. You can overlook Sasebo Port and the beautiful Kujuku Islands. It's especially great to visit around sunset—the scenery is stunning 🤩. Perfect place to relax!

Sonmin-Shokudo (Karuizawa)
Karuizawa, often referred to as the “Beautiful Village” in the works of novelist Tatsuo Hori, is home to Sonmin-Shokudo, a restaurant produced by Hoshino Resorts. Its concept is “a casual dining spot that warmly welcomes visitors to this beautiful village of Karuizawa with delicious meals.”
Feels just like coming home to the countryside. The dishes are simple but full of flavor, with generous portions that really warm your heart. The rice is delicious, and the side dishes go perfectly with it. Super satisfying meal—perfect if you're craving homemade-style food!

Benkei Fishing Club
Located on the eastern side of the Akasaka Imperial Grounds, this leisure facility for boating and fishing is nestled in a corner of the Edo Castle outer moat, surrounded by expressways and tall buildings. Despite being in close proximity to Akasaka-Mitsuke and Nagatacho, it's a nature-rich oasis by the water, cherished by many enthusiasts.
The facilities are well-equipped and the environment is beautiful. It's great for families and beginners who want to try fishing. There are lots of fish and it's pretty easy to get the hang of it. A perfect spot to relax in the city.
