Gee....I have been to too many... Hokkaidō: Ramen Aomori: Apple cookies Akita: Rice Chiba: the waves of Hebara Tokyo: the shops in Shibuya Kanagawa; Yokohama Bay Niigata: I hate Ishikawa: making lacquer dishes Fukui: soba Yamanashi: tasting wine Nagano: Kiso valley strolling Gifu: my favorite for Japanese culture Shizuoka: Mt Fuji and Kite Festival Aichi: Fireworks in Toyohashi Mie: Suzuka Circuit Shiga: Miho Museum Kyoto: kyoryori Osaka: okonomiaki Hyōgo: the pink elephant in Kobe Nara: the biggest wooden structure Wakayama: the white beach Tottori: the sand dunes Okayama: pottery Hiroshima: the tori in the sea Yamaguchi: the pagoda Ehime: my temple stay with all the pilgrimants Kōchi: Aeon mall Kagawa: the open-air museum Fukuoka: the best Chinese restaurant Saga: pottery Nagasaki: The penguin aquarium Kumamoto: nothing really Ōita: the hot springs park in Beppu Miyazaki: the oranges Kagoshima: the hot sand massage Okinawa: the music
That will be a long list, but I'll try. BTW I'm vegetarian, so I'm little bit restricted about food Akita- watching the Namahage festival Iwate- Visiting Toono village (but it is very hard to reach it). The winter festival at Koiwai Farm Myagi- Of course, Matsushima. I loved feeding the seaguls from the boat.They aren't afraid of people and take snacks almost from your hand. Yamagata: The nature, Yamadera and that shaky train which runs through the mountains. It gives you the same taste for danger as riding a roller coaster.I wonder how they still keep this thing running. Niigata- The gold mines at Sado Tochigi- Strawberry cheesecake with Tochigi strawberries. Fantastic! Different from any cheesecake I've ever tried! Gunma- the Daruma shrine and the little glass Daruma (Ihope they still sell them- very cute!) Saitama- The Korean temple in Komagawa Kanagawa- the snake-shaped rings they give as Omamori. Unfortunately, I lost mine. I forgot it in the library and never saw it again. Nagano- the little horses made of straw. Yamanashi- the chocolate with wine. Shizuoka- The cruise on Hamanako on sunny day in the summer. Aichi- oni-manju(my favorite Japanese sweet!) Gifu- the houses at Shirakawa-go , gohei-mochi with sweet miso. Fukui- the pottery(Echizen-yaki). I'm in love with it! Kanazawa- The Showa-style tourist bus. Mie-I didn't like Mie much Nara-there is so much culture and nature there, that I almost forgot about anything else. But siite ieba,I like the accesories made of deer horn. Kyoto- The statue of Tetsuwan Atomu in front of Kyoto station.Uji tea flavored ice cream. Kiyomizu -yaki Osaka- Takoyaki forever!!! Kobe- in the Italian house, in the basement, there's one of the biggest diamonds in the world. I believe it is only a replica exposed, but nonetheless I like it. Yes, and the chocolate glazed coffee beans-love them too. Wakayama- when you pass through Arida, some of the farmers leave oranges outside and sell them very cheap-like one bag for 100 yen . You leave the money and take your oranges. Interesting trade... Okayama- kibi-dango, of course!Also Bizen-yaki Kagawa- the cocolate with olive flavour. It is unique Ehime- There are guys, who walk the streets around the castle and the spa dressed as characters from "Botchan" Hiroshima- Momiji-manju witch cheese. Shimane- The traditional peasantry dance performed with something like a basket. Tottori- ride on a camel. MIyazaki- cheese manju Kagoshima- the huge round daikon. Nagasaki- Babera aisu( an old woman who scoops ice with spatula) I met such woman near the station.The oficial name of the product is, however, "mukashinagara-no -aisu) Oita-it is mostly the spas there, but so not Japanese-like was the fact that it was very dirty there. Everywhere. Sorry, bad impression. Fukuoka- The museum of Star Wars at Space world. Great for SW fans. Okinawa- Saataa and Rykyu glass
