The air at the top of the mountain instantly feels super fresh! It's perfect for escaping the summer heat up here.

Onneto Lagoon
Along with Lake Furen, this is one of Nemuro’s signature lakes and one of the “Nemuro Top 10 Scenic Spots.” It’s a brackish lake where freshwater and seawater mix, with a shoreline of Approx. 15 kilometers. Past the Onneto Bridge, it connects to Nemuro Bay. The lake is generally shallow-so much so that tidal flats spread far offshore at low tide-and it draws many visitors who enjoy clam digging for asari clams and surf clams.
The water at Onneto changes color depending on the weather. On sunny days, it turns a dreamy emerald green.
It’s surrounded by pristine forest, so it feels very quiet and relaxing. Getting there is a bit inconvenient, though, so it’s best if you’re driving and can take your time exploring. -

The moment you walk in, it really blows you away.
It feels like you’ve fallen into another world, and the lights and projections are insanely beautiful. -
Maruya Honten Meieki 3-chome
Maruya Honten Meieki 3-chome is a hitsumabushi specialty restaurant located a five-minute walk from Nagoya Station. It is known for its hitsumabushi made with eel grilled over Bincho charcoal until fragrant, paired with 100% Japanese-grown rice. A sweet tare based on traditionally made tamari soy sauce brings out the eel’s natural umami, earning strong support from locals and tourists alike.
After the first way of eating, adding green onions and wasabi was also really great 👍
The chazuke-style with tea poured over the rice was totally different.
It was my first time trying it and it felt super unique.
