It gets super crowded during meal times on weekends. For some of the famous restaurants, it's almost impossible to get a seat.

Mount Kora
Stretching from southern Fukuoka Prefecture to the Oita border, the Mino Mountain Range is home to Mount Kora, a 312-meter peak situated at its westernmost end. The mountain is best known as the site of Kora Taisha, the Ichinomiya (highest-ranking shrine) of the former Chikugo Province.
As soon as you get up the mountain, the air feels so fresh—it really wakes you up! The views are fantastic. You can see all of Kurume City, and on clear days, you can even spot the Ariake Sea.

Standing along Shinjuku Dori, at the East Exit of Shinjuku Station, is Kinokuniya, a major bookseller. Since its establishment in 1927, it has been a mainstay of Shinjuku, supporting its development in shopping. Completed in 1964, the current Kinokuniya Building wash chosen as a building of historical value by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government in 2017.
The whole building is a bookstore, with a huge variety of books. Foreigners can even get tax refunds here.
