Halloween-only gift chocolate “High-heel Cat” will be on sale at “THE SHOP at the Park” (1F) from October 1st (Thursday) to 31st (Saturday), 2020.
Since it is expected that many people will spend this year’s Halloween at home, the hotel pastry chef has devised a gift chocolate that is recommended as a reward for yourself and as a gift for your loved ones.
The theme is “high heels of a cat transformed by the magic of a witch”. The cat playing mischievously on the crescent moon of milk chocolate is expressed with high heels that image femininity, and the jewelry is designed with almonds and bonbon chocolate coated in pink with strawberry chocolate.
In addition, the shop sells “finger chocolates” and “Halloween cookies” that look like witch’s fingers, and proposes “Hotel Halloween” and “House Halloween” that you can enjoy in your hotel room.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
