Riding the Mt. Takao Sightseeing Lift this time was a very memorable experience. As the lift slowly ascended, I could enjoy the lush greenery covering the mountain and the expansive views along the way. The gentle breeze felt very pleasant and helped me relax. Although having my feet dangling in the air made me a little nervous at first, I was soon captivated by the beautiful scenery before me. After reaching the top, the air was fresh, and I could continue walking around and exploring Mt. Takao. It was a wonderful memory that combined natural scenery with a relaxing trip, and it's well worth experiencing for yourself.

Shibuya Hikarie
A shopping center that offers many more ways to enjoy the experience other than just shopping and dining. Floors B3 to 5 comprise the shopping area “ShinQs by TOKYU DEPARTMENT STORE” which is designed in white and wood colors to create a soft atmosphere with many distinctive shops.
澀谷，順便逛了「澀谷HIKARIE」！這裡的位置真的很方便，和澀谷站連在一起，從車站出來就可以直接逛，不用走太遠。不過這次來的時候人潮真的很多，整個商場都相當熱鬧。
裡面有不少服飾、美食、生活雜貨和餐廳，樓層也不少，想慢慢逛的話可以留一點時間。尤其用餐時段人更多，熱門餐廳常常都有人排隊，逛街的氣氛非常有澀谷的繁華感。

Milk Road
The Aso caldera is a vast crater and somma volcano with a circumference of approximately 128 km around its perimeter. Across its northwestern outer ridgeline you’ll find a 45km stretch of scenic highway nicknamed “Milk Road”, found across the Prefectural Road 339 and Highway 45.
While driving around Aso, Kumamoto, I specifically planned to take the “Milk Road”! The scenery along the way was a wonderful surprise. Driving along the highland road, with vast grasslands and mountain views on both sides, felt so open and completely different from the scenery in the city.
What attracted me most about this road was the natural scenery along the way. There was no need to rush from one attraction to another. Just driving slowly and looking out the window at the Aso mountains felt very relaxing. Whenever I came across a beautiful view, I stopped to take pictures, and every stop brought a different surprise.
There are also quite a few farms, scenic viewpoints, and rest stops along the way where you can buy milk, ice cream, and local dairy products. Drinking fresh milk while looking out over the Aso highlands really made it feel like a trip to Kyushu.

Milk Stand Akihabara
Milk Stand Akihabara is a specialty shop for bottled milk located in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo. This long-established stand has been in business for more than 70 years since it opened in 1950. It is on the 3rd floor of JR Akihabara Station, on platform 5 of the JR Sobu Line. Its signature items are bottled milk varieties from regions all across Japan.
When traveling in Japan, you sometimes come across little shops with a lot of character, and Milk Stand is one of them! The tiny shop is right inside the station. It doesn't have any fancy decor, but it has an authentic, everyday Japanese feel.
The most interesting part is simply buying a bottle of cold milk and drinking it. It's simple, but it feels like a little ritual. The cold milk goes down smoothly, and its light milky flavor is very pleasant. A bottle is just right when you're tired from walking around.
I really like this small Japanese experience of “drinking milk at the station,” especially taking pictures with the glass bottle. It has a nostalgic Showa-era feel.
