Imakoyasan is a historic site designated by Hiroshima Prefecture. With its landscape painted in vibrant colors every season, such as cherry blossoms in spring, fresh verdure in summer, and autumn leaves, Imakoyasan (Ryuge-ji Temple) is the spot for you if you want to witness and feel the changing of the seasons. You can ring the bell at this temple yourself, so definitely give it a try. When I rang the bell, the sound it made was unexpectedly beautiful, making me feel as if my heart was being cleansed.

Personally, it was the most delicious okonomiyaki I've ever had. I would recommend the "Sera no Megumi-yaki" for 900 yen. The bright red tomatoes harvested in Sera, the aroma of perilla leaves, and the richness of the cheese are a perfect match for this okonomiyaki. It's a must-eat when you come to Sera. Aside from that, there are many other types of okonomiyaki and alcoholic drinks available here.

If you're a wine lover, I don't think you'll be able to resist going to this winery.

It was light and easy to carry and made it possible for me to enjoy the taste of Sera wine in the comfort of my own home.
