Mikimoto Pearl Island is the birthplace of modern pearl cultivation. They still have ama divers searching for pearls, which is really cool. Highly recommended! 👍

YouMe Town Takamatsu
This shopping mall draws customers even from areas outside of Kagawa prefecture. The facility holds about 160 shops including the most popular fashion retailers, knick-knack shops, home décor and electric appliance stores.
There are tons of stores here, from clothing and beauty to lifestyle goods and restaurants. Super relaxing to walk around! The layout is pretty easy to follow, so you won't get lost. The AC is nice and cool, and there are plenty of places to sit and chill. It's perfect for grabbing a bite while you shop, or just hanging out to cool off. Honestly, you could spend hours here and end up buying way more than you planned!

Canal City Hakata
On the vast 43,500m² premises, a shopping mall, movie complex, theater, amusement park and two hotels cluster. Its symbol, a 180m-long canal, crosses along the center of the space lined with colorful buildings.
Besides shopping, there are lots of exhibitions and events, so you'll never get bored here.

Ippotei Main Store
Founded in 1933, this historic Chinese restaurant in Namba is best known for its signature shumai, wrapped in a thin yellow egg crepe instead of the typical white flour-based skin. Originally developed as a post-war substitute due to flour shortages, the egg wrap became a beloved specialty, and the restaurant continues to preserve this unique method to this day.
You can tell it's different from the first bite. The wrapper is made from egg, which looks simple, but the taste is truly top-notch old-school style. 👍
