It’s not really the kind of tourist spot you *have* to go out of your way to add to your itinerary, but it’s great for a relaxed walk and zoning out.
There’s a big lawn, and on a nice day it’s super pleasant to stroll around or just sit and chat. It feels like locals come here a lot, and the overall vibe is pretty laid-back.
The park is fairly clean, and the paths are easy—nothing too tiring. It’s good for kids to run around, and also totally fine for older folks to take a walk.
Spring or fall is especially comfortable. Lots of greenery, and it definitely puts you in a better mood.

Mt. Fuji World Heritage Centre
Mt. Fuji was registered as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in 2013. Opened in 2017, this facility-known for its striking architecture-lets you learn more about Mt. Fuji, long a symbol of Japan for its one-of-a-kind beauty.
The whole building is beautiful and really well designed. Inside, they use interactive exhibits to explain everything about Mt. Fuji—from geology and culture to religion—in a way that’s clear but not boring.
The coolest part is the “Inverted Fuji” ramp. Walking up it feels like you’re slowly “climbing” Mt. Fuji. When you reach the top and see the huge window view, on a clear day it’ll seriously stop you in your tracks—Mt. Fuji looks massive and stunning. -
Mikuni Port Echizen Crab & Seafood Specialty Restaurant Mikuni Inkyojo
A specialty crab restaurant in Sakai, Fukui Prefecture, a gourmet town that won the Gastronomy City Award 2025, serving Mikuni Port Echizen crab cuisine. This seaside auberge shares the Sea of Japan and the lifestyle of the port town through food. Accommodations are limited to one group per day for a fully private stay, while lunch and dinner at the restaurant are also available for day visitors. Outside crab season, it serves 'Echizen Kitamae Cuisine,' carrying on the food culture brought by Kitamaebune trade into the present day. The restaurant also participates in a project certified by the Agency for Cultural Affairs, offering dishes inspired by historical background and seasonal local ingredients.
It’s tucked away and quiet, with a really comfortable atmosphere. The moment you walk in, it feels like you’re being welcomed into a private little hideaway. The seafood is super fresh, and the Echizen crab is incredibly sweet. It feels light and easy to eat, almost like you’re tasting the sea itself. The cooking isn’t flashy—it just brings out the natural flavors of the ingredients.
Prices are on the higher side. -
TENGA LAND
You can find TENGA LAND in Harajuku, a neighborhood known as the source of new trends and fashion. The shop had its grand opening in April 2024, on the 2nd floor of Harajuku’s Tokyu Plaza “Harakado”, noted as the first ever experience-based shop in Japan for self-pleasure items.
The interactive design of the exhibition area is really fun. Turning adult products into this kind of concept is pretty wild—whoever designed this must be quite the character.
