You can get up close to cliffs and waterfalls, and if you're lucky, you might spot seagulls, seals, or even brown bears! The guides on the boat are really knowledgeable, and the natural scenery is just breathtaking!

Okonomiyaki Mitchan Sohonten Orizuru Tower Shop
Step through the first floor of Orizuru Tower to find the famed branch of long-established Mitchan Sohonten and the impeccable taste of Hiroshima’s famous okonomiyaki. Inside you won’t be able to miss the impressive 8-meter teppan flat-top and the wide-eyed view of mid-sizzle magic in plain sight.
The noodles and cabbage are piled on thick, making it really satisfying to eat. The sauce is a perfect mix of sweet and savory—goes great with both rice and drinks!

Ukiha Inari Shrine
Kyoto’s Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine apportioned a deity here to Ukiha Inari Shrine, launching the founding in 1957 alongside enshrined deities Matsuo Taisha Shrine (Ooyamakui-no-Kami) and Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine (Sugawara no Michizane). Known as a powerful spiritual site, visitors here often seek blessings for success in business, bountiful harvests, sake brewing, good health, and academic achievement.
Ukiha Inari Shrine is up on a hillside, with a row of red torii gates stretching upward—makes for awesome photos. On clear days, you get a great view of Ukiha below, which is really soothing. There are quite a few steps, but taking photos along the way makes it totally worth it.

Yasui Konpiragu
Located in Kyoto's Higashiyama district, the shrine venerates Emperor Sutoku, Minamoto no Yorimasa, and the major deity from Kotohira Shrine in Sanuki. It has long been affectionately known as "Yasui no Konpira-san."
The giant stone tunnel in the middle is so unique! You write your wish on paper first, then crawl through to make your wish come true!
