You will understand everything YNm43Ff9whk Other interesting Part of this Island? That will be the History......Please see the Wikipedia. Now, Tips of the Month. How to go there? This Island was near to Hiroshima City. I suggest you stay one night at Hiroshima City first. Next early morning then go this Island. First at Hiroshima Station take Shinkansen to Mihara Station (三原駅). Please take Note. Nozomi Shinkansen does not stop at Mihara Station. Once you reach Mihara Station, change to JR Kure Line to Tadanoumi Station (忠海駅). Walk to Ferry terminal. 15 Minute Boat Ride (Adult 300Yen & Children 150Yen Per Way) to reach Destination. Rabbit Food are sold for 100yen only » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Best spot for taking picture of rainbow bridge Well first you have to take Yurikamome Line to Odaiba-kaihinkōen Station [お台場海浜公園駅] Once you reach the station walk toward to Odaiba Kaihin Koen. The Magic Spot was the the Map. Please Refer it. Oh ya....When Typoon Season plz don't go this spot. Too Risky!! » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Originally it should be Hiroshima Miyajima oyster. Because November to March are Japan oyster season and Hiroshima Oyster are the best. But recently alot forumer here are going Kyoto. Arashiyama are one of top choice. The food that really capture me at Arashiyama are 嵐山いこい Location please refer to map. Just beside the Hotel 旅亭嵐月 During lunch time you can buy thier Bento set Or have a Oden (関東煮) set. Oden are this shop primary selling point. Best part of this restaurant are the river view. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Tips of the months Nagoya delicious fried Tonkatsu shop. Open since 1947. My personal think this shop selling most tasty pork meal in Nagoya City. Location: Nearby to Yabacho Station. First at Nagoya Station take Higashiyama Line to Sakae Station then Change to Meijo Line to Yabacho Station. Exit 4 then walk 5 minute to Destination. Their shop most ultimate dish are 鉄板とんかつわらじとんかつひれとんかつ After when to this shop so many times.....Found out their secret Menu. This did't put in their menu. When you order 鉄板とんかつ or わらじとんかつ then say ''Half''. Then they will combine this 2 together in one plate. Spending cost around 1300 - 2000 Yen but the taste really worth the price This post has been edited by RegentCid: Feb 4 2015, 09:53 PM

グローバル防衛構想 Senior Member 4,060 posts Joined: Dec 2007 From: クアラルンプール > 日本	QUOTE(michlove @ Jan 21 2015, 09:25 AM) Tips on buying Burberry Black Label and Blue Label. There is one Burberry in Ginza...many floors But I didn't buy from there...instead i went to Takashimaya in Namba, Osaka. Most of the departmental stores have 5% discount voucher for tourists. Just go to the information counter, show your passport and they will give you the vouchers. Takashimaya gave me a Hello Kitty discount card which I was so happy to keep as a souvenir So we bought our black and blue label from there. Purchase apparels, toys + bags above 10001yen (exclude tax) in one or accumulated receipts in one day in one store, can get 6.9% tax refund (1.1% is their handling service fee). On top of that, I get 5% discount on my bags and shoes too This kind of thing they have to discover by self. We insist homework here. Travel is about discover by self + homework + some regret feeling.
