It's a spot that will spark your intellectual curiosity.

At Hachioji Taki-yama Roadside Station, I grabbed some fresh vegetables and warm okara! I also enjoyed a leisurely breakfast with delicious bread in the eat-in space. I'll share tips on avoiding crowds and getting great deals during weekdays.

Visited Shinagawa Shrine, washed money in the Dragon's sacred water for good fortune! Then enjoyed freshly baked bread and handmade rice crackers in the shopping street.
