A mosque located near Yoyogi-Uehara Station, at the border of Shinjukuku and Shibuyaku in Tokyo Metropolis. Visiting is free, and even on holidays, there are few people. You can also enjoy Turkish coffee at the neighboring restaurant. As I looked up at the dome, I was enveloped in a strange sensation, as if I were peering into the "structure of the universe."

I went for lunch at "Yakiniku Daichi no Takumi" in Tokachigawa Onsen, Otofuke Town 🥩🔥 Daichi no Takumi's lunch set menu is extensive, offering yakiniku, steak, hamburgers, stir-fried dishes, ramen, and more. This time, I received the "Stir-Fried Liver and Chives Set" 😋 The main ingredient, the liver, was juicy and soft, and the chives and bean sprouts still had a firm texture and were crunchy, making it very delicious! Even if you make a large serving of rice, you'll probably finish it all easily. You can also order on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays! Please give it a try 😊
