#AdventureMoment Direct flights from Incheon to Kobe are now available~!!!♡ There's an island called Awaji Island in Hyogo Prefecture, where Kobe is located. Although it's an island, it's connected to the mainland by a bridge. It's like Ganghwa Island or Geoje Island, accessible by bus or car. There are three Hello Kitty theme parks here: Hello Kitty Showbox, Hello Kitty Apple House, and Hello Kitty Smile. Showbox and Apple House are separate but adjacent to each other. Smile is a three-minute shuttle bus ride away. Hello Kitty fans, this is the perfect place to enjoy a meal while watching a Kitty show, and even have a 30-second chat with Kitty and take a picture with her. How to get there: From Kobe Sannomiya Station, take a highway bus to Awaji SA and then take the free shuttle bus. Thank you.

While strolling through Kurashiki's art scene, I stumbled upon this incredibly cute Hello Kitty bakery. Its vibrant pink hue is a true girlie delight. 💗 📍 Location & Experience Located right next to the Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter, I popped in for a sweet treat after visiting the Ohara Museum of Art and the old streets of Kawagoe. The environment is clean and charming, and the shop is filled with a light, baked aroma. 🍞 Recommended Bread & Desserts • Kitty 3D Red Bean Bread: The soft, adorable appearance makes for a delightful burst of rich milky flavor and sweet red bean paste. (It's so famous, some people even travel all the way from Tokyo just for this one Hello Kitty red bean bun!!!) As for their signature square bread, I recommend the dark one! !!! The white one feels like just another bread, not particularly impressive. 🎀 Atmosphere The shop is decorated with Hello Kitty illustrations and decorations, and the pale pink background makes for a warm photo op. Enjoy a cute afternoon tea with coffee or a matcha latte~ ⸻ 🔧 Practical Tips • Hours: Recommended opening hours are after noon, but we recommend adjusting accordingly based on the surrounding business hours. • Popularity Tip: Weekend afternoons can be a bit crowded, so we recommend going early or avoiding peak hours. • Photo Tip: For best results, stand at the counter and take photos of the "pink wall + bread" combination, or use the themed box lid to take photos of the tabletop. • Souvenir Recommendations: Many breads come in adorable packaging, perfect for sharing with friends. Kurashiki isn't just about art; it also has some girly dessert spots! If you're a Katy Perry fan, this place is definitely worth a visit. Curious about your favorite shaped bread? Leave a comment and share! 🎀 P.S. The locations below are not the actual bakery addresses, but rather the addresses of stores that don't have images on the trip, but are required. That's it, so make sure you don't go the wrong way!😲
