    Having visited many temples, I’m always attracted by the uniqueness of each temple.
    This temple is a great mixture of good old days such as the retro cooking stove and beautiful details of architecture and moderns such as the comfortable bed room and the co-working space.
    Enjoyed watching Norm getting lost in the huge maze temple as well! Thank you for sharing the very rare experience😆

    • @TokyoLens

    My temple stay was honestly one of my most memorable moments while I was in Japan. It was absolutely beautiful, being able to pray with the monks and witness their fire ceremony is something I will remember forever. The temple I stayed at was in Koyasan, their 1000 year old temple. We got to go through their graveyard at night and it was absolutely breathtaking! I can't wait to come back!

      Sorry for my ignorance as an Australian, but would the salt act basically like salt water on your shoes? Salt water on shoes occasionally won't do much, but every day, the salt crystals themselves as well as other chemicals in the water dissolved with the salt break down fibres in the shoes. Does the salt even wear away at the soles of proper, thick walking/hiking boots?

    • @KHainstock88
      @KHainstock88 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      @@rogerramjetox142pa you've pretty much got it! The soles don't wear down as much, but any leather starts to crack and split, and any fabric will rot through. You can counteract the damage by diluting vinegar and wiping your shoes down with it every day, but it still shortens the lifespan. Salt doesn't work if temperatures drop below (I believe) -30C so colder provinces and cities use sand which is a little better. Toronto is just too afraid of lawsuits, hence the sidewalks being coated in salt for four months

    What a beautiful space to stay in! I'm so jealous of that bath. I miss the bath we had in Japan. The mountains and snow are stunning. I can imagine how freezing the morning air was after our stay at Hakuba, waking up to -6⁰C! I'd love to stay there, but it wouldn't be ideal for my family. My child is so loud and she'd be deliberately skidding down the halls. We'd get kicked out 😅😂 But I'd love be to visit the area. I loved the video of the statues that you did previously.

    Thanks for the video Norm. It reminded me of my first trip to Japan (March/April 2023), where we did stay at a temple in Koyasan. Of all the places I visited, I really miss Japan, and I hope I can go back soon. Until then, I'm looking forward to your amazing videos.

    That's a very beautiful place to spend the night. I'm so jealous, I absolutely love that bath!

    I lived in Hamamatsu, there isn't much to see, but there were some parks in the mountains, in the forested part, really cool at that time, and some temples. I miss those times when I was a child...

    My daughter was with me when i was watching your last stream. And when i started watching she immediately recognised you and kept saying Norm it was so cute. And when i tried to pause the video for a min she got upset lol
    Love the temple would be so cool to stay there.
    Also I really miss Japanese breakfasts, especially the rice, have never been able to get it to taste the same at home, but breakfast rice is so good

    Temple stays are the best experience. Highly recommended if you're thinking about doing it. You get to experience a little slice of day to day life that you don't normally get to see. The few I've stayed in were not like this one however! Those were much more... modest. :)

    Hey Norm, meteorology major here. The dippin dot like snow is called Graupel. Graupel is precipitation that forms when supercooled water droplets in air are collected and freeze on falling snowflakes. Just thought you'd like the bit of trivia. Keep up the awesome videos.
