Kumamoto Castle (about 110 minutes, free time, entrance fee is 800 yen, at your own expense)
Kumamoto Castle is one of the "Three Famous Castles in Japan". It was built by Kato Kiyomasa, the first lord of the Kumamoto Domain and a famous castle builder, over a period of seven years starting from 1601. After the Kato family was demoted, it became the residence of the Hosokawa family.
The more you go up, the more you want to turn back. There are many places worth seeing, such as the special stone walls called "Musha-gaeshi" and the magnificent Honmaru Goten. It is the symbol of Kumamoto City. The cherry blossoms in spring are also very beautiful, attracting many flower lovers.
Seriously damaged by the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake, the Tenshukaku was finally restored in the spring of 2021. Standing on a slightly elevated hill in the center of Kumamoto City, Kumamoto Castle, which has a history of more than 400 years since its construction, is worth a visit. Besides visiting the famous Kumamoto Castle in Kumamoto, don't forget to visit the Sakuranobaba Josaien next to the castle. Josaien is a tourist area planned with the concept of a castle town. It has a historical and cultural experience facility "Yuyuzuka" and a food and commercial facility "Sakuranokoji", which is a good place to taste Kumamoto cuisine and buy souvenirs.
Kumamon Office (Japanese name: くまモンスクエア. Go by yourself. It takes 30 minutes to walk back and forth. Please pay attention to the time allocation)
"Kumamon" was born in March 2011 with the opening of the Kyushu Shinkansen. Kumamon Office is the activity base of "Kumamon", the Minister of Sales and Happiness of Kumamoto Prefecture, who is often active at home and abroad, and it is also a place to promote the tourism and product information of Kumamoto Prefecture. From the sales minister's office of Kumamon to the limited-edition peripheral products in the office, and even the coffee shop dishes using local ingredients in Kumamoto Prefecture, it is fun, easy to buy and delicious. When the minister is there, he will also give a lovely performance on the stage.

Great memories, good price
This app made it super easy to reserve a space and time for our trip to NYC. We usually take the train, but needed a car this time. I usually hate looking for parking, so I tried to find a garage near our hotel. When I found that there was one just a block away I went to their website and saw that they had this app. It was super easy to set up and I found a space and was able to adjust the time and complete my transaction from creating an account to having a full parking space reservation in about five minutes. Unfortunately I ended up having to cancel my trip about a week early so I requested a refund and it was instant with no hassle. I think in general, from now on I’ll just use this app to see if there are other parking garages by the same owner, and reserve spaces in those (if I ever have to bring a car back to NYC - I still like the train better). The only 2 things things that I would wish for are: 1. That they had an option to add the parking pass to your Apple Wallet so I just need to bring up a code on my phone when I get there and they scan it. 2. They allowed you to add a previously booked guest reservation to your current account. I started on the web with the reservation and then got the app and wanted to add the reservation to the app, but couldn’t. I kept the app and will now use it from now on instead of checking out as a “guest” from now on. Overall, a great app.
Bardzo dobra cena kupiłem ze sporą zniżką polecam
Easy to book and cheaper than price at counter. Got the ticket on my mobile within minutes.
Made a last minute pivot in our plans and was able to easily secure tickets at a much lower cost. Highly appreciated and highly recommend! Thank you!
The process to purchase and use our tickets was easy. It saved us a substantial amount of money too. Very happy with my experience, I'll be using this site again.
