So, when you go up in the elevator, there’s this video segment, and wow, I honestly thought it was so well done.
Right after the video ended, we arrived at the top.
So awesome.
Too bad I can’t share the video, but I’ll leave that as a surprise for you guys.
The view wasn’t great that day though, so I’ll spare you my photos.
I really wanted to see the sunset, but all the afternoon time slots were sold outtttttt, which was seriously so unfair because we had the morning slot...
But it was pretty comfortable up there, and the sofas were great.
There were also people helping take photos, and on the way down there were quite a few souvenirs to buy.
Once I see something limited edition, I seriously want to splurge.
The ticket really isn’t cheap, but I think if you catch the sunset, it must be absolutely gorgeous.
I’ve seen so many super pretty videos online.
Such a shame I didn’t get to see it.

Monkey D. Luffy Statue
With over 500 million copies in circulation worldwide as of 2020, ONE PIECE has become one of Japan’s most iconic manga series.
It was raining that day. I hope I can collect all of the ONE PIECE statues someday!
There was also a handprint below it, and my hand is tiny.
When I put my hand on it, theirs was way bigger than mine. But I don’t have a photo, so I’m not sure if I deleted it... so sad. I was taking photos nonstop the whole trip in Japan.
Maybe because it was raining, I got to take a good photo with Luffy~
But honestly, I like Levi more.
I don’t know why, but I couldn’t find anything here about Attack on Titan in Hita, only Oita...
Whenever I see Luffy doing this pose, it makes me want to copy it too hahaha. Do everyone’s photos end up with the same pose? -

Kushida Shrine
This head shrine is said to have been built in the 8th century. Residents in Hakata call it “Okushida san.” Hakata Gion Yamakasa festival declares the arrival of summer to the City of Hakata in July, and is dedicated to this shrine.
Honestly, I don’t really remember much about this place. I basically only came because everyone said it’s famous and that you should visit, hahaha.
It was definitely unique, but what I liked was... was it the crane? I thought it was really delicate.
And there was also one with huge nostrils.
Uh, is saying that going to offend anyone?
But the komainu really did have super big nostrils, and it was so cute.
Don’t you think it’s kind of hilarious?
I’m calling it the "broken dog." -

Mizuki Shigeru Road
Mizuki Shigeru Road was established in 1993. The 800-meter-long street from Sakaiminato Station to the Mizuki Shigeru Museum is lined with 177 bronze yokai sculptures.
I seriously, absolutely loved this street.
I kept taking photos the whole way. I wasn’t even planning to stay that long, but I ended up spending the entire afternoon here. It was so awesome.
There were so many works on display? I guess that’s how I’d say it.
This is where I have to talk about my iPhone for a second.
The new feature lets you cut things out and turn them into stickers.
It works especially well with these.
Hahaha I seriously loved it.
And it feels so fun, don’t you think?
There are sarcastic ones.
There are dramatic slap-reaction ones.
There are goofy ones too.
And a ton of stunned-looking ones.
I can even tell stories with these pictures hahaha. If you’re interested, follow my IG.
If this gets more than 10 likes, I’ll post my IG hahaha (probably).
Also, I’m not very good with punctuation.
I honestly don’t really know how to break things into paragraphs with periods. -
