Went there and it was pretty good!
But I didn't try the spa. It seems like the spa has more negative reviews.
Shinagawa Shrine
Shinagawa Shrine was founded in 1187 as a place for marine traffic safety and prayer realizations. During the shrine’s annual festival, which takes place in early June every year, portable shrines called “mikoshi” are carried around town, and many people come to celebrate.
I just stopped by since it was on my way, but I didn't expect to have to climb a hill—and it was actually pretty tough...🥱
Ueno Zoo
This is Japan’s first ever zoo, founded in 1882. Despite its urban setting in the heart of Tokyo, it still keeps a lush, natural environment as well as about 2,500 different animal friends of some 300 different species.
Who says Ueno Zoo is just about pandas? I actually love watching the penguins swim! 🌟🌟🌟
Okunitama-jinja Shrine
Okunitama Shrine, with a history stretching back about 1900 years, is where Okunitama-no-Okami, the deity protecting the Musashino area, is enshrined. Musashino was a vast area including modern-day Tokyo, Saitama, and parts of Kanagawa. Inside the shrine grounds are several smaller shrines, each one granting its own blessing. Among those, the shrine blessing love and marriage is especially well-known.
Every time I visit Tokyo, I make sure to stop by Okunitama Shrine and pick up a lucky charm!
Moominvalley Park
Moominvalley Park is a theme park that takes you through the world of Moomin, making great use of the beautiful nature in Hanno. This is the first Moomin park outside of Finland, the home country of the series’ original author.
It looked great at first, but honestly, it was just okay. Not as fun as the Doraemon park! Maybe that's because I've watched a lot of Doraemon cartoons. Also, the gift shop and Moomin-themed restaurant are super expensive!!
