This long-established rice cracker shop is fantastic! The snacks are crispy and flavorful without being too sweet. There are lots of flavors to choose from, and you can even try samples. Perfect as a souvenir or just for snacking yourself.

Kazura Bridge (Fukui Prefecture)
Ikeda Town in Fukui Prefecture is surrounded by unspoiled nature and traditional rural scenery. Spanning the tree-lined Asuwa River is a rare suspension bridge made with kazura vines, measuring 44 meters (144 feet) long, 1.8 meters (5.9 feet) wide, and 12 meters (39 feet) high.
The whole place feels მშვიდ and comfortable. It’s not crowded, and walking across it gives you that sense of time slowing down.
It’s great for a stroll, zoning out, or casually snapping a few photos. If you like lively places, you might find it a bit ordinary, but if you’re looking for some peace and quiet, it’s just right. -
Naruto City: Fun on a Fishing Raft
Uchinoumi lies northeast of Naruto City, Tokushima Prefecture. Floating on these calm waters, surrounded by Shimada Island and Oge Island, are aquaculture rafts once used when pearl farming flourished in the area. Today, visitors can enjoy fishing, BBQs, and other activities on the water.
Such a unique experience! Sitting on a wooden raft out on the sea, fishing and enjoying the ocean view—it's super relaxing and fun. You really get to take in Naruto's natural beauty up close. Highly recommend giving it a try!

Miho Shrine
First recorded in the Izumo no Kuni Fudoki compiled in 733, Miho Shrine is a venerable site of worship. It enshrines two deities: Mihotsuhime-no-Mikoto, the goddess of bountiful harvests and safe childbirth, and Kotoshironushi-no-Kami-widely revered as “Ebisu,” the deity of safe voyages and prosperous business. As the head shrine of all Ebisu shrines in Japan, Miho Shrine has long been a center of faith.
The shrine feels really peaceful, with a solemn yet comfortable atmosphere. Visiting here feels especially lucky. It's super popular for people praying for good fortune or success in fishing! The shrine's architecture is also unique, with a classic, old-fashioned beauty. Walking along the approach path is calming. You can also check out the harbor views nearby. Overall, it's a relaxing spot that's perfect for a leisurely visit.
