June 3-4: Shopping at Tenjin Core and Canal City Hakata
The place was so huge that there are also underground shops in it. In here,we visited shops like the real Daiso Japan,the G-shock store and most off,Rilakkuma shop! ❤️ The shop got me so overwhelmed with all these cute stuff; I wish I could buy them all.haha! But yes,thou shall control thyself--Though I did bought a lot 'cause everything seemed so rare in it.
A Rilakkuma candy corner.I should've tried it but each treat was quite expensive.So now,I'm left with curiosity ;(
Like I said,this whole store is heaven to me! I really found it hard to choose what item to buy since almost all of it are rare ones! But yes,the items were pricey coming from an original store.Prices could range at around P150 and above.
Of course,the plushies are so cute.Another hard choice that i had to make was to either buy Rilakumma or Korilakkuma(the white bear).Both of it are so adorable yet this time, I chose Korilakkuma for now since my cousin recently bought Rilakkuma ;p
The saleslady even helped me in choosing what to buy here 'cause I didn't realize that their costumes are based on zodiac signs! I was about to buy Gemini and happily,she helped me find a Libra-inspired Korilakkuma which is now on my bag ❤️ Ohh yes,it's actually a trend in Japan to put mini plushies as keychains on their bag.
Alongside the Rilakkuma shop is Gudetama,a laid-back egg yolk which I also found interesting.In here I bought a cute pouch for my dear man.❤️
So this is where we had lunch and there I ordered a Katsudon set which was really really good!The bento consists of nuts,miso soup and dried mangoes.
Besides the restaurants that we passed by,here are a few stalls that I strolled into Tenjin and Canal City.Believe me,they are all so kawaii! :D
Another place that I spent most of time in Canal City was Taito Station.It's a big arcade beside the porikula booths where most of the games are through cranes.Each token usually costs around 500-1000 yen and mind you,it needs a lot of luck to play such games!But it was fun though.I had around 5 attempts and won nothing.Hahaha!It looks to easy to get---but it isn't.No wonder the prizes are certainly for keeps!from stuffed toys to huge food packs. :)
I swear to try these again when I come back!! ;D
Aaaand that's a wrap of my Fukuoka trip!You may check out more of my pics at Instagram and Facebook.My Japan tales will definitely continue soon on another part.But where's my next destination?LONDON,UNITED KINGDOM!!!
'til then! ;D
