Even though I couldn't understand the story of the Kagura performance, it was great to experience this famous Japanese tradition. I could really feel the atmosphere of Japanese mythology, and the vibe at the end was fantastic!

Yebisu Garden Place
Yebisu Garden Place comprises restaurants, cafés, department store, movie theaters, museums and more, all within this complex filled with abundant greenery.
This place combines shopping, dining, museums, and great night views.
Walking around the garden plaza feels like strolling through a little European street in Japan.
Perfect for weekends, dates, or just taking it slow. -

Mt. Haguro
This 414-meter-high mountain lies northwest of Mt. Gassan, the main peak of the three mountains of Dewa. A 29-meter-high, five-story pagoda blends into a grove of cedar trees, a few minutes' walk along a mountain path from Zuishinmon gate by the bus stop.
There are so many giant cedar trees along the way. The whole route feels ancient, like traveling through time.

Manai Falls
Takachiho Gorge, designated as a National Scenic Beauty and Natural Monument, is a stunning landscape formed by the erosion of pyroclastic flows from Mount Aso's eruption. The result is a unique gorge with striking columnar cliffs, known as columnar jointing.
The waterfall rushes down the cliff with incredible force—it's really impressive!
