The local cuisine here is really unique, but the smoky air was a bit hard to handle.

Nikko Toshogu
Nikko Toshogu is a shrine dedicated to the Edo shogun Ieyasu Tokugawa. It is the most visited spot within the World Heritage Site “Shrines and Temples of Nikko,” and here you can see 55 exceptional buildings, including 8 that have been designated as national treasures and 34 that have been designated as Important Cultural Properties.
Every spot here is a classic. Even a whole day isn’t enough to see it all.

Yamato Museum (Kure Maritime Museum)
A museum introducing the Yamato, the world’s largest battleship during World War II. Visitors can also learn about Kure’s history and science and technology. The 1/10-scale battleship Yamato, the symbol of the Yamato Museum, has been recreated based on original blueprints, underwater survey footage, and crew testimony. It continues to share the importance of peace and the excellence of science and technology with future generations.
This place mainly covers World War II history, especially the 1:10 scale model of the Yamato battleship. As a military enthusiast, coming here felt like discovering a hidden treasure.

Mukojima-Hyakkaen Gardens
Mukojima-Hyakkaen Gardens is a public urban garden where flowers bloom across all four seasons with the flourishing sense of real Japanese aesthetic. Located near iconic Tokyo landmarks such as the Tokyo Skytree and Sensoji Temple, it's a perfect spot for a leisurely stroll along the Sumida River.
I went there in winter, and it was pretty bare—there was nothing much to see.
