2025 Ube Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#0yentravelFebruary2025 #Yamaguchi #Domestictravel Lounge Kirara at Yamaguchi Ube Airport is a card lounge located on the third floor of the domestic terminal building☕️ Opening hours are 6:40-20:00, and Gold Card members and above can use the lounge for free for 2 hours. General use is 1,100 yen/2 hours. Although the lounge is compact with only 44 seats, you can enjoy soft drinks, local juices, Wi-Fi, and newspapers and magazines🥰 However, you cannot expect luxury or spaciousness, and it can feel cramped when crowded💦 The original "Yuzu 5" drink is well-received, and its appeal is that it gives off a local vibe❕ It is clean and comfortable, but don't expect a luxurious feel😇

When I went on a trip to Yamaguchi, I found this restaurant on the way to the hotel by taxi after getting off the plane at Ube Airport. Established in 1957, this restaurant has inherited the taste of the old lady. ✨ You can enjoy heartfelt home cooking, with the main dish being "rice balls" made with shiny rice cooked with pure white steam. They are very particular about the ingredients and the taste, and they change the rice mix depending on the season to keep it in the best condition. ────────────── 🥢Fried young chicken rice ball set... 1,000 yen ☑︎Includes red miso soup and a small bowl ────────────── As it is the most popular menu item, I decided immediately There are 19 types of rice ball ingredients, from the standard to the unusual❣️ I was able to choose two rice balls with my favorite ingredients🍙 The hot and fluffy rice balls taste better the more you chew them♡ The moment you bite into them, they crumble, and the softness is apparently determined by the strength they have acquired over 20 years😳 They go perfectly with the crispy fried chicken, and they were just too good🥹✨ There is a counter, so it is easy to enter even by yourself, and the food and atmosphere are relaxing Even on weekdays, they were full of customers❣️ ────────────── Rice ball ochazuke Komete 📍 2-5-23 Tokonami, Ube City, Yamaguchi Prefecture ⏰Monday to Friday 11:00~14:00 (L.O.13:30) ▫️Saturday 11:00~14:00/17:00~21:30 (L.O.21:00) (Closed) Sundays/Holidays 🅿️8 spaces next to the store, 3 spaces behind Tokonami Post Office #YamaguchiTrip #YamaguchiTourism #UbeTourism #UbeGourmet #UbeLunch #FritabiWinter

Tokiwa Zoo is a zoo located in the Tokiwa Lake area in Ube City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The area is divided into four areas based on the animals' breeding areas, including the Asian forest area and the waterfront area in the south-central United States. There is also a learning area where people can get close to the animals, for a total of five areas. Among them are capybaras, meerkats, owls, alpacas, ring-tailed lemurs and other animals that are not often seen in Hong Kong. There is also a playground nearby suitable for children to play, which is especially suitable for the whole family to visit! Although the transportation is not as convenient as in a bustling city, it is still quite convenient for Yamaguchi Prefecture. You can get there by walking a short distance after getting off the bus. #11月好去2024 #Ube #Tokiwa #YamaguchiTravel #Zoo
