Turns out this Zen temple came from the Ming Dynasty in China, which explains why the architectural details have such a special vibe.

Osaka Station City
Osaka Station City opened in 2011 as a "city" where train stations, department stores, commercial facilities, recreational opportunities, hotels, offices, services, and plazas come together. It celebrated its 10th anniversary in May 2021.
Osaka Station City is huge! There are department stores, restaurants, and cafes—everything you need. You could easily spend a whole day here. It's super convenient, directly connected to JR Osaka Station, so you can start exploring as soon as you get off the train.

Yufuin Burger House
Located in the bustling central area of Yufuin, Yufuin Burger House is a specialty burger shop renowned for its juicy patties made from a blend of Bungo beef. The famous "Yufuin Burger" is made fresh to order, ensuring hot, juicy patties and crispy, flavorful bacon. The burger also features local, fresh LL-sized eggs and rich cheddar cheese, perfectly complementing each other. Packed with fresh vegetables, the burger is surprisingly easy to finish despite its substantial appearance.
Awesome! The burger is juicy and hearty, with fresh toppings and perfectly toasted buns. I felt super satisfied after eating. The shop has a cozy, local vibe—definitely a must-try when you're in Yufuin!

Kurashiki Ivy Square
The main factory of the Kurashiki Spinning Mill, founded in 1889, has been turned into a tourism and cultural complex, the Kurashiki Ivy Square. The facility is a reproduction of a British factory. The replicated red brick buildings with lush green ivy vine presents a classical but modern atmosphere.
This place was converted from the Kurashiki Spinning Mill and has a lot of cultural significance.
