The scenery here is absolutely beautiful. You can soak in the hot springs while enjoying views of Mt. Fuji. The facilities are clean and comfortable, and the service is thoughtful. A fantastic choice for relaxing both body and mind.

St. Ignatius Church, Catholic Kojimachi
Located in Tokyo’s Yotsuya district, St. Ignatius Church is a Catholic church offering masses in various languages every Sunday. The church is named after Saint Ignatius of Loyola, founder and first Superior General of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits). For more than 80 years, since its origins as the "Church of St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus" established in 1936, it has been beloved by both worshippers and the local community.
The interior is calm and peaceful. Whether you're religious or not, you can find a sense of tranquility here. It's a quiet spiritual spot right in the middle of Tokyo.

Kakegawa Castle
Originally built in the late 15th century under the order of Suruga’s feudal lord, the Imagawa clan, Kakegawa Castle was constructed by the Asahina clan as part of Imagawa’s expansion into the Totomi region. In 1590, Yamauchi Katsutoyo, who was appointed as the castle lord, carried out a major renovation, reconstructing the castle tower, the main gate, and developing the surrounding castle town.
The surroundings are beautifully maintained, and if you visit in spring, you can enjoy the cherry blossoms, which makes for a really romantic atmosphere. Plus, the Ninomaru Art Museum and the palace are right next door, so you can visit them too. Spending half a day here is just perfect~

Karafuto Islanders Memorial – Gate of Ice and Snow
Located within Wakkanai Park, the Karafuto Islanders Memorial - Gate of Ice and Snow is a monument dedicated to those who lost their lives in Karafuto (now Sakhalin), which was once part of Japan. The memorial stands on ground that historically served as a vital link between Japan and Karafuto-a place where many people once came and went.
The Gate of Ice and Snow feels solemn and really makes you reflect. When it's covered in snow during winter, it looks even more beautiful and a bit melancholic.
