That sounds amazing! Machikou is seriously atmospheric. I love how you stumbled upon that tea house – those unplanned discoveries are the best part of exploring places like that.

Hopefully I'll find my own hidden gem, but honestly, just wandering is half the fun.

As for the bunkers... well, let's just say practice your sand shots a lot before you go. You'll need them. Good luck, you'll need it!
