I saw this at a specialty store before and grabbed a few packs to take home. I've tried it a few times, but I'm not sure if it actually works.

Gojo River Cherry Blossom Promenade
The Gojo River rises in Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture, and flows through towns and cities in Aichi Prefecture such as Oguchi Town, Konan City, and Iwakura City. Around Iwakura City, it runs through the urban area, where you can enjoy a spectacular view of Approx. 1,300 cherry trees in full bloom lining both riverbanks for Approx. 7.6 km. In Iwakura City, the “Iwakura Cherry Blossom Festival” is held every year from late March to early April to coincide with cherry blossom season. At night, the trees are illuminated, and the fully blooming cherry blossoms glowing in the dark are breathtaking.
So romantic! Cherry trees line both sides of the river, creating a long pink-and-white sakura tunnel. Walking through it feels totally dreamy.
When the flowers are in full bloom in spring, the petals drift onto the water and the whole scene is insanely beautiful. It’s also perfect for photos.
It does get crowded, but the vibe is lively. Definitely worth making a special trip for. -
gashacoco Ikebukuro
Just about a 2-minute walk from Ikebukuro Station, “gashacoco Ikebukuro” is a specialty shop dedicated to capsule toys. With a sales floor of about 150 tsubo (about 495 m²), it boasts around 1,500 capsule toy vending machines. The lineup spans a wide range of genres, including anime characters, Heisei retro, and food motifs.
This place is seriously so much fun! There are entire walls packed with capsule toy machines, and the variety is just wild—anime characters, figures, and even some super quirky stuff. Once you walk in, you can't help but want to try a few. The space isn't huge, but the vibe is lively and it's great for photos too. If you're into capsule toys, you have to add this to your Ikebukuro plans—it's super relaxing!

Lake Biwa
Lake Biwa, which belongs to the first-grade Yodo River system and is located in the center of Shiga Prefecture, occupies an area of about 670 k㎡, or about one-sixth of the prefecture's land area, and is the largest lake in Japan in terms of both area and water storage capacity, with 27.5 billion tons of water pouring in through rivers from the surrounding mountains of Ibuki, Suzuka, and Hira, all of which are over 1,000 meters high.
Lake Biwa is perfect for boating and fishing, especially in autumn and winter.
