Open 24 hours, so you never have to worry about finding food late at night. That alone is a huge plus!

Gran Vista Tsunoshima
Located near the historic Tsunoshima Lighthouse, a designated National Important Cultural Property, Gran Vista Tsunoshima is a seaside restaurant where guests can enjoy exquisite meals while taking in stunning ocean views. The terrace, in particular, is renowned for its breathtaking sunsets over the sea.
You can see the Tsunoshima Bridge and the ocean right outside the window. On a nice day, the view is absolutely beautiful. The food itself is pretty standard—mostly Western-style or simple dishes. Nothing too surprising, but the scenery really makes the meal more enjoyable. The atmosphere is comfortable and perfect for taking photos. If you're visiting Tsunoshima and want a place to relax, enjoy the view, and take it slow, this spot is a great choice for a meal with a view.

Negoro-ji Temple
Negoro-ji Temple is the head temple of the Shingi Shingon school, located in Iwade City in northern Wakayama Prefecture, with a tradition spanning Approx. 900 years since its founding. The grounds are vast, covering 3.5 million square meters, and include many historically significant buildings, such as the Important Cultural Property Dendenpo-do Hall, which enshrines three statues including Dainichi Nyorai, also an Important Cultural Property. The National Treasure Daito Pagoda, measuring 40 meters tall and 15 meters wide, is among the largest in Japan.
The whole temple complex is huge and really solemn. Walking around, you feel especially calm and at peace.
Cherry blossoms in spring and maple leaves in fall—so beautiful and super photogenic.
If you’re into that quiet, serene vibe of old Japanese temples, this place is absolutely worth a visit! -
