Timeline
18:07
Grab a quick bite or sweet treat at Cross St Market. The covered market is open until 19:00, so you have time to find a stall before the sun dips. It is a good place to pick up something simple and keep moving.
18:27
Walk five minutes north to Leone Riverside Park. Position yourself to face west. The sun sets toward the WSW, giving you a clear view of the light fading over the water. Stay for the golden hour transition.

Head to Matsuri for dinner. It is a short walk from the park. The kitchen serves dinner from 17:00 onwards, so it is open and ready for you. The atmosphere is casual and calm, a nice reset after the viewing spot. Order fresh sushi or tonkatsu.
19:27
End the evening at Byblos for a drink or late snack. It is nearby and stays open until 22:00 on weekdays. The vibe is friendly and informal, perfect for winding down after a full meal.
Local tip
