Things to do in Atsugi

I went on Saturday, and it was quite crowded. Once inside, you had to scan a QR code to get a photo opportunity with the characters, and that was only available for the afternoon. The boat parade pass was also only available for single people. It's an indoor amusement park, so there aren't many attractions. There are shows to watch, and you can eat various character-themed foods, which are very cute. There are also shops, Ichiban Kuji (a type of prize), claw machines, gashapon (capsule toys), etc.

Samukawa Shrine ☺︎ The garden in the back will be open for a while from March. I like to take a break at the teahouse there ☺︎ The god of protection from all directions. May disaster befall you all!!

Enoshima is accessible by train, and the tour is free. I don't think the elevator is necessary if you can climb something like Yuexiu Mountain, but if you have children, they seem to be free, so you might as well buy an adult elevator ticket. There are several shrines and an observation tower up there. There's a place selling local snacks like bread and octopus cakes (which are also sold down below). I think there are hot springs and hotels in the island area, as well as open-air bars and cafes, which seemed quite nice. I took a quick tour, which took about an hour, including crossing the bridge. I wouldn't recommend expecting to see Mount Fuji; it was hazy.

Visiting Shibuya Sky was definitely one of the highlights of my Tokyo trip! I booked the 1:30 PM time slot because I wanted to experience the observation deck during daylight and stay until sunset. Honestly, it was a great decision! I got to enjoy the beautiful panoramic views of Tokyo under the afternoon sunlight before watching the city slowly transform as the sun went down around 4:30 PM. Seeing the buildings, busy streets and endless cityscape from above was an incredible experience. The atmosphere became even more special when the city lights started illuminating the skyline. If you're planning to visit, I highly recommend booking an afternoon slot so you can enjoy both daytime and sunset views!

Buying the ticket via Trip is possible to be cheaper than buying from the ticket office there. Lately there is a newborn dolphin and it was so cuteeee. If anyone go there around this time, i really recommended to see the baby dolphin. Also, another popular thing from this aquarium is the Jellyfish zone. Don’t forget to see it!

Despite the fact that there are always a lot of people , I love this street ! It has this unique atmosphere.

The Snoopy Museum in Machida is the second Snoopy Museum in the world. It’s a delightful place to visit, especially since it’s connected to Grandberry Mall and the surrounding park, making it easy to enjoy the entire area.One highlight is the Snoopy Library, where all the books have been donated. The interior is calm and well designed, creating a comfortable space for reading and relaxing.If you’re in the Minami-Machida area, I highly recommend stopping by and paying this place a visit.

The Enoden, a vintage tram from Kanagawa Prefecture, is a must-ride when visiting Kamakura. A one-day pass is available for 800 yen for adults and 400 yen for children; Suica cards are accepted. If you're not going to many places, a one-day pass isn't necessary. The line runs from Fujisawa Station to Kamakura Station. At several stations, there were no staff members present; it's all about honesty and trustworthiness.

I'd heard it was crowded before, thinking it wouldn't be too bad, but I went on a Wednesday, and it was incredibly packed! The big rides had queues of 30 minutes to an hour, almost as long as Disneyland. The rides themselves were quite fun, but unfortunately, the instant noodle rafting was under maintenance that day. From the moment the park opened in the morning to taking the cable car and then entering the park, there were queues everywhere – it was exhausting. If you want to come, choose a different time of year, like outside of summer, as there are just too many students.

Is a 1 stop for you to try all the different ramens in Japan! Do prepare some time for this visit~ there are carparks nearby.
