A cafe and select shop called “Sanctuary” is probably opening today, June 6, along the Naruo Mikage Line near Miyazuka Park.I say “probably” because the official blog dated 5/11 said it was scheduled to open on 6/6. There haven’t been any blog updates since then, so… we’ll leave it at “probably” “^_^”
Here it is↓

It seems to be a new business format from the select shop “Regina Romantico.” New store Sanctuary Ashiya location opening
Here’s the map↓
The address is N Building 1F, 15-4 Miyazukacho, Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
Area around “Sanctuary”

It’s along the Naruo Mikage Line (south side). Immediately to the left as you face it is the natural-style restaurant “amasora”.

If you go this way, you’ll find the drum school “Mad Drum Lab,” the hair salon “hair design Lien,” the tacos and taco rice specialty shop “OLL KITCHEN”, and more.

If you go the other way, next door is “amasora,” and beyond that are “Domino’s Pizza Ashiya Miyazukacho,” the select shop “Utsubo Stock Ashiya,” and others.

Across the street is the hugely popular bakery “Bäckerei Biobrot,” which always seems to sell out. You can see Miyazuka Park diagonally across to the right.

When I happened to pass by, a craftsperson was just hand-painting the sign.
The person doing the lettering was “Signs Shu” from Kaizuka City, Osaka!

関西を代表する高級住宅地、芦屋にて上品なロゴマークを描いています。
木地に艶ありのペンキで仕上げた壁面に手書きロゴです。
木地の凹凸を殺す事なく馴染みます。
こういう看板が5〜6年経過すると、なんとも言えない良い佇まいを醸し出すのです。 pic.twitter.com/yr8lxYmOKS
Craftsmanship really is amazing, isn’t it?

The logo design is cute too!
At the cafe, it looks like you’ll be able to enjoy soft-serve ice cream made with a soft-serve freezer from Carpigiani, a company headquartered in Bologna, Italy. I’m excited to see what it tastes like!
In closing
It feels like more and more stylish shops are popping up around Miyazuka Park.
Taking out a drink or soft-serve ice cream from the cafe and enjoying it slowly in Miyazuka Park sounds pretty nice!
