Meiji Jingu Shrine is an especially peaceful place in central Tokyo. After entering, I slowly walked along the tree-lined approach and felt as though I had suddenly left the city's hustle and bustle behind. Tall trees surrounded me, the air was fresh, and the atmosphere was both solemn and relaxing. I visited the shrine to pray for safety and also admired the architecture and scenery rich in traditional Japanese character.

Tokyo Midtown Yaesu
Directly connected to JR Tokyo Station, Tokyo Midtown Yaesu is a mega retailer built around the concept of “Japan Presentation Field - A City Where Japan’s Dreams Gather and the World’s Dreams Grow.”
Yaesu has quite a few unique stores, and it's very comfortable to browse around. The modern mall design is also great for photos. This time, I also found the delicious NewYork Perfect Cheese cheese butter cookies. There are lots of cartoon merchandise, from plush toys to all kinds of everyday items, and I couldn't stop looking at them. They're just so cute! If you like this kind of thing, it's easy to browse for so long that you won't want to leave, and when you find something you like, you'll keep wondering whether to take it home as a souvenir.

Great Seto Bridge
Great Seto Bridge connects Okayama Prefecture on the main Island and Kagawa Prefecture on Shikoku Island. This name is for all the six bridges that stretch for 9.4km (5.8 miles) over the channel. Different types such as suspension bridge, cable-stayed bridge, and truss bridge are connected together.
The Great Seto Bridge was even more spectacular than I imagined! The bridges span the Seto Inland Sea one after another. From a distance, they look like several massive bridges linked together, stretching to the other side of the sea. The view is truly breathtaking.
Standing by the bridge and looking at the massive structure against the sea, you realize how impressive the engineering is. You can also feel the bridge’s height and scale while driving across it, with views of the Seto Inland Sea along the way. The whole scene feels very grand.
