I really learned a lot here. Visiting this museum helped me understand that there are actually indigenous Ainu people in Hokkaido, Japan. It's great to get a deeper look into the history and culture of the Ainu people.

Shinhotaka Ropeway
Far east of Takayama City, in Okuhida Hot Spring Villages, a ropeway takes you to Shin Hotaka Onsen. From the starting point, Shinhotaka-Onsen Station, to the terminal, Nishi-Hotakaguchi Station, ride the 1st and then 2nd ropeway to enjoy a 3,200m-long journey in the sky.
This ropeway is awesome! When you reach the final Nishi-Hotakaguchi Station, you get to enjoy an absolutely stunning panoramic view. Totally worth it!

Omotesando Hills
Featuring an impressive architectural design suited to Omotesando’s elegant and fashionable high street image, Omotesando Hills has been a landmark in the area since its opening in 2006.
I sat outside and admired the building's exterior—it's a classic example of Tadao Ando's signature exposed concrete style. I've always loved the look of exposed concrete: simple, understated, and elegant. The architecture alone makes it worth a visit!

Rokkatei Flagship Store
Rokkatei is loved as a staple brand for Hokkaido souvenirs. They offer a wide variety of sweets, such as Marusei Butter Sandwiches, Strawberry Chocolates.
The first time I tried these cookies was when my family brought them back from Japan. I was blown away! Ever since then, I always make sure to buy them as souvenirs when I visit Japan—you’ll fall in love with them too!
