The Kyoto Subway and Bus One-Day Pass allows unlimited rides on Kyoto's municipal subway and city buses for one day, making it very convenient for anyone visiting several attractions in a single day. You don't have to keep preparing exact change or buying tickets—just use the pass to board. It can be used to reach places like Kiyomizu-dera Temple, Kinkaku-ji Temple, and Fushimi Inari Shrine, and transfers are easy too. After using it, I felt that it saved quite a bit on transportation costs and made my itinerary more flexible. It's very practical for first-time independent travelers to Kyoto.

Hakata Motsunabe Oyama Main Store
It is the headquarter of a popular motsunabe restaurant that has expanded to Tokyo, Osaka, and Aichi, with 21 branches nationwide. Many customers visit the restaurant every day for "Oyama-style Hakata Motsu-nabe," which is made with carefully selected ingredients and perfected through a process of trial and error.
第一次吃「博多牛腸鍋 大山」，覺得這道九州名物真的很特別！滿滿的牛腸搭配高麗菜、韭菜一起煮，熱騰騰的鍋物一上桌，香氣就讓人很有食慾。
牛腸煮過之後口感Q彈又帶點油脂香，搭配蔬菜一起吃，可以中和油脂的濃郁感，湯頭也越煮越有味道，喝起來很順口。

Tsuruhashi Fugetsu, Odaiba Store
Founded over 70 years ago in Tsuruhashi, Osaka, this popular okonomiyaki restaurant allows you to enjoy the same unchanging taste at their Odaiba location. Skilled artisans cook okonomiyaki with plenty of cabbage and finish it with a secret sauce, as well as "modanyaki," which features their signature thick egg noodles cooked on top of the okonomiyaki, all on a griddle right in front of you.
Of course, when in Osaka, you have to try the famous local okonomiyaki! This time, I went to Tsuruhashi Fugetsu. The restaurant had a lively dining atmosphere, and sitting in front of the griddle watching the okonomiyaki slowly cook made me look forward to it even more.
The okonomiyaki was cooked until the surface was lightly browned and fragrant, while the inside was fluffy with a hint of sweetness from the vegetables. Paired with the rich sauce, mayonnaise, and bonito flakes, it was full of flavor and especially satisfying to eat piping hot.

Kamameshi Shizuka Kouen-ten (Nara Park)
Since opening in 1959, Kamameshi Shizuka has been serving meals in two locations within Nara City during the last 60+ years. Even having established one of the best kamameshi restaurants in Nara, they continue to cook each pot of kamameshi over an open fire upon receiving each order.
I made a special trip to eat at Kamameshi Shizuka Kouen-ten in Nara. It's also a well-known, long-established kamameshi restaurant in Nara. This time, I ordered the oyster kamameshi. As soon as the steaming-hot pot arrived at the table, it looked so appetizing!
When I opened the lid, the rice had absorbed the aroma of the broth and had been cooked together with fresh oysters. The savory flavor of the oysters slowly infused the rice, giving every bite a subtle taste of the sea. Each grain of rice was distinct and became more fragrant the more I chewed, and it was especially delicious eaten with the oysters.
