In the last post, I talked about Japanese sweets. Here are some pictures I took outside the sweet shop. The shop sells traditional Japanese sweets, so the building and garden are Japanese style.

The path leading to the shop is paved with stone and has moss.

At the entrance is a flower arrangement, which changes with the seasons.

A doll display fills the window at the entrance.

The building is made of wood, which has a calming effect, and blends in well with the garden.

 

It is a nice place to relax with friends or alone. Also, because it is far from central shopping areas, it is quiet. When I go, there are never more than three or four people there. I enjoy looking at the garden while drinking tea, or reading a book.

How about you? What kind of cafes or restaurants do you like?
