【3】Surprise Finds at Michi-no-Eki Yachiyo: Char Siu Ramen & a 4L Watermelon 🍜
🕒 Arrived around 12:30 PM (12-minute drive from Keisei Rose Garden / approx. 5.3 km)
📍4905-1 Yonemoto, Yachiyo City, Chiba
Next, we stopped by Michi-no-Eki Yachiyo.
We stumbled upon a bowl of ramen topped with thick, juicy slices of char siu!
Is this... a steak disguised as ramen?
🍉 And then—making a grand entrance—a 9kg+ 4L watermelon from Yachimata!
I couldn’t resist buying it, but slicing it at home was a real challenge—way too big to cut in half properly! (lol)

No better way to wrap up the day than with a soak in a hot spring!
The sodium-chloride-rich hot spring keeps you warm to the core and helps prevent chills after bathing.
