The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge... It's the longest sea-crossing bridge in the world, and the views are just breathtaking! Walking on the Maiko Marine Promenade, you get to see the ocean right beneath your feet through the glass floor. Such an amazing experience! 😆

Mt. Inasayama Observatory
At 333m above sea level, this observatory stands at the top of Mt. Inasayama at the center of Nagasaki City. The observatory with a cafe and restaurant offers a view over Nagasaki Bay, Unzen, Amakusa and Goto Islands.
You can see the night view of Nagasaki City from the mountaintop observatory. Nagasaki is built on hills, so you can watch the lights stretch up the slopes. The lights reflecting on the bay make the whole scene so romantic!

Ise Jingu
Known affectionately as "Oise-san," the shrine is usually called "Ise Jingu-Shrine," but officially, it is called "Jingu-Shrine".
A must-snap spot at Ise Jingu! Be sure to take photos of the torii gate in front of the Inner Shrine, Uji Bridge, and the Isuzu River. Don't miss it!

Tower of Osaka Castle
Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who unified the country during the Azuchi-Momoyama period (1568-1600), began construction of the tower of Osaka Castle in 1583 and completed it in 1585. The castle was later destroyed during the Osaka Natsu no Jin（summer campaign of Osaka） in 1615, but was rebuilt by the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1626. However, the castle keep was destroyed by lightning in 1665. In 1931, the castle tower of the Toyotomi period was reconstructed with donations from Osaka citizens.
On the 5th floor of Osaka Castle Tower, there's a special display with miniature models. You can even see the battle scenes between Yukimura Sanada's team and Tadanao Matsudaira's team—and they actually move! Super cool!
