Touring Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka-Hiroshima: For first-timers to Japan, using an unlimited rail pass to freely travel by train along the golden route is highly recommended. The view of Mt. Fuji from the bullet train is one highlight of the route. Hiroshima is just a 90-minute trip from Osaka and Kyoto, so it’s easy to make a day trip using MIMARU as a travel base.
Meet Popular Characters: Where could travelers find a better location for subculture like anime, games, and J-pop than Akihabara in Tokyo? Not to mention, anime merchandise specialty shops and character cafes are spread all throughout Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto. At MIMARU, guests can also stay in a room where they will be greeted by a giant Snorlax.
Try the Full Spectrum of Japanese Ramen: Japanese ramen’s popularity is going strong in the U.S.A. even now. In Japan’s major cities, travelers can try all the different types to their heart’s content for roughly 1,000 Japanese yen (7 USD), from tonkotsu (pork bone broth) to soy sauce, miso, salt, and even regional specialty variations.
Samurai & Ninja Experiences: At MIMARU Osaka Shinsaibashi North, constructed with Osaka Castle as its concept, guests will be greeted by armor worn by the Shogun and samurai upon entering. Additionally, guests can explore the samurai-themed museum in Kyoto and join in on a ninja experience recommended by MIMARU in Tokyo that the whole family will enjoy.
