Arrive at the Mazda Museum right at opening. Bookings are essential for the English tour, so call ahead. The space is limited, so arriving early ensures you get the slot you want. The tour lasts around 90 minutes, giving you a solid morning activity.
10:30
Walk just four minutes to Saizeriya for lunch. It is open from 10:00, so you will arrive just in time for a relaxed meal. It is a simple, reliable spot to refuel after the museum tour without needing to travel far.

Head to Hanbe Gardens, a 23-minute walk from your previous spot. This hotel and restaurant complex features a public onsen with a variety of baths, including jets and a unique "lap walking" bath. It is the perfect way to unwind after a morning of walking and touring.
