There aren't many foreign tourists here, so it feels like a hidden gem. You can see plum blossoms in February and March, cherry blossoms in April, and in June there's a hydrangea festival. Over 10,000 hydrangeas bloom—it's really beautiful.

Heiwa Dori Shopping Park
The 1-kilometer-long pedestrian paradise, called "Heiwa-dori Shopping Park", is the main street of Asahikawa, and was established in 1972 as Japan's first permanent pedestrian paradise, and is lined with a variety of stores, from large-scale stores and various specialty stores to beauty salons and restaurants.
This place really has a local vibe. It doesn't feel as commercialized as the big cities.

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.
So classy... The Japanese really know what they're doing 🤣
But honestly, it's just so good, I have to give it a thumbs up!!!
Best Japanese souvenir, hands down. -

Takahata Fudoson
Takahata Fudoson is a special head temple of the Chisan School of Shingon Buddhism and is regarded as one of the Kanto region’s three major Fudo temples, alongside Naritasan Shinshoji Temple and others. About 300,000 people visit for the first temple visit of the New Year, and the temple also attracts many worshippers for its monthly festival on the 28th.
This is the temple where Hijikata Toshizo from the Shinsengumi is buried, and you can see hydrangeas here in early summer.
There aren't many tourists, so it's nice and quiet for a stroll inside the temple.
It seems like this shrine is known for traffic safety blessings.
Also, you have to try the dango from the shops along the approach! 🍡 -
