Great View of Mt. Sakurajima
Many local people enjoy shopping and having lunch here. In addition, you can have a great view of Mt. Sakurajima and Kagoshima Bay (Kinko Bay). The contrast of blue ocean and Mt. Sakurajima is very beautiful! Please have a look at the following video.
Every time I come here, I enjoy free foot bath. When my friends visit me from foreign countries, I sometimes take them and enjoy foot bath together while enjoying viewing Mt. Sakurajima. (It is a bit hot in summer though）

Nice Shops & Restaurant
There are many kinds of restaurants and shops. My wife likes Sushi bar where is full of jolly atmosphere. We love to have green tea ice cream at 2nd floor. If you want to get taste of some Kagoshima local food, why not have Amami-no-keihan at 2nd floor? Amami-no-keihan is chicken soup rice with eggs and pickles. You can also enjoy Kagoshima’s famous Kurobuta which is pork of Kagoshima traditional black pigs.
