On the west exit area, which is on the opposite side of Akabane's downtown area, you'll find family-friendly stores like Ito-Yokado and Bivio.
Vivre? Wait, that's not it, it's Bivio!
Bivio is directly connected to the Pal Road 2 shopping mall. Pal Road 2 is on the right side of the photo.
Let's head to the front of the Central Exit of Pal Road 2!
You can access the Central Exit of Pal Road 2 from the 1st floor of Bivio.
And, in front of the Central Exit, there's Maeno Drugstore, and a place to sit and take a break on the nearby sidewalk!
There were eight two-seater benches around the street trees and plantings.
I visited on a Saturday, but there weren't many people, so I could relax and take a break♪
The sidewalk in front of the benches is a bit narrow, so it's convenient to remember this spot if you want to take a quick break near the west exit of Akabane Station.
Also, the "Rest Area at Seven Gods Square" on the other side is also recommended for taking a break or meeting up♪
So, why not take advantage of this as a place to rest in Akabane while you're shopping at Pal Road?
