The museum explains the history of Kure and its connection to the navy. There's also a model of the Yamato, which was once the world's largest battleship. It's a great place to learn about Japanese shipbuilding and military technology.

Edosei Chinatown Main Store
Always bustling with crowds and often drawing long lines on weekends, Edosei in Yokohama Chinatown has been loved for generations. Established as a butcher shop in the Meiji era, the store has over 130 years of history and is now best known as a specialty shop for Chinese steamed buns.
The moment I took my first bite, the soup burst out and almost burned my tongue! The filling is packed to the brim—no skimping at all.

COREDO Muromachi
A full line up of different restaurants await, from casual and full-on authentic dining, both in Japanese and Western style. Inside you’ll find all the trimmings of good living, including the historic charm of Nihonbashi veteran shops to a modern-day cinema complex. With so much at this all-in-one shopping stop, there’s plenty of crowds drawn here across a wide range of ages.
At Eslite Life, you can find some unique Taiwanese products like Tatung rice cookers and grandma-style shopping bags. Super interesting!

Kumano Kodo Path
Kumano Kodo is the path leading to the three Kumano Mountains (Kumano Hongu Taisha Shrine, Kumano Hayatama Taisha, Kumano Nachi Taisha and Mt. Nachisan Seiganto Temple). While Kumano faith was rising, noble families used this path to come to Kumano, which was later spread to the general public.
There are several routes along the Kumano Kodo. The Nakahechi route from Hosshinmon-oji to Kumano Hongu Taisha is pretty flat and easy to walk. You can finish it in just half a day.
