- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ม.ค. 2022
- Hakone is a wonderful side trip from Tokyo, a place to relax, enjoy the long views of Mt Fuji of Lake Ashi, but there is also a lot of history here too. The Old Tokaido Highway runs through here with a check point and we’ll explore it today. MAP: Hata-juku Ichirizuka (Tokaido Road Distance Marker)

Those wooden boxes have hidden compartments and all sorts of other surprises too
Thank you John
Very informative Kotosan kanko gaido‼️👍👍👍🥰 Thank you John.
Yeh this was a great video one day when you know what is not so prevent I plan on buying a small piece of real estate in Kyoto for vacation and now I know about this as an avid hiker this just went into my top 5 to hike as of now #2 in Japan second only to Fuji as of now, this Lady I won’t butcher her name (Koto??)was outstanding you should definitely have he on again she stole the show and as very informative. Great great video so good I downloaded it.
my late wife would have loved to watch only in japan
Everything is as I remember it. I really miss Japan.
I hope you can make it back here again soon!
when i used to walk on the stone road once a path when i was younger in the street called the shambles in the city of york uk it was not nice to walk on but those stones were more round and stuck out more
What an awesome guide, so energetic and a great knowledge of history with the stories. Very impressive. My bucket list includes walking the Tokaido Highway, so I'm enjoying watching this and making notes :)
I quite enjoyed your mini-tour! Just a couple notable corrections: Keanu Reeves would have come from Canada, as he is Canadian; and the 47 Ronin story has been told in film (and novels, and theatre, and even an opera) many times before (at least 6, starting with one in 1910), most famously by Hiroshi Inagaki with his film called Chūshingura, made in 1962.
Cool souvenirs
Thank you John for the history walk. Great job !!!
What a contrast from your last video in Tokyo! What a lovely sunny day!
Just incredible. I cannot wait to get there in 4 months......u get me more excited every stream .....
Great weather. The woodcraft is very popular and well known in Japan. The multiple layers are awesome when you see them piece it together. All of Hakone brings back good memories. We ate yaki imo sold by a street vendor right near the old Tokaido Highway and it was good.
Wow, that's awesome!
Very cool! Damn I miss Japan so much! I used to love just dropping tools and heading off in an explore like you do! Arigato!
Missed the stream. Amazing they've been able to maintain the old cobble stones and path of the old Tokaido Highway. Crazy that it's stood the test of time so well.
Certainly feels like you've stepped back in time walking that highway. People of the Edo period must have built up extremely strong legs and thick soles walking those cobbles! 😮
Awesome History!!
Awe man! Just missed this!
thats one of the dvds i have john the ronin with keanu reeves i also really like samurai with tom cruise apparently he liked the japanese main lady in it but she was not only married but never liked him that way
We were fortunate to see Hakone last year; it is such a beautiful area, and so peaceful. We got breakfast down by the lakeside near one of the ship ports and enjoyed resting our feet in water I believe is fed by hot spring :) Easily one of my favorite places to visit in Japan.
i like it more when you and kanae are together on your travels john
Fun and all to yourselves’!
Tell you one thing about this guy lol .he gets real excited easy
💖💖💖💖💖💖
Hey John, nice video
i once saw some house on you tube years ago had grass growing on it
Dang missed it by 1 minute
Hello John waiting for the next live stream 😊😀
Last time I was there I was told that in order to preserve the Tokkaido they actually burrowed under it and removed the earth and supported it at the same time.
Konnichiwa!
Such an outstanding guide, she had so many interesting tidbits to share!
The furrows around the stones on that road were filled in with soil at one time. The road was even, flat.
Everyone needs to read Japanese Inn by Oliver Statler which chronicles 200 years of the Tokaido Road. Unfortunately the book is out of print but copies are still available if one looks hard. I read this book once every couple of years.
Beautiful, I miss Hakone and want to come and stay where you guy's stayed near Lake Ashi John. I'm an artist and will paint there. I'd love to give you a Fuji san oil painting when I come. I can mail it to you🎨👍
Much of Hiroshige’s famous artwork was from depictions on the Tokaido.
Hello John
I totally missed this , it came too early ! But great stream anyway at the sunny weather ! Arigato 👍!!!
Maybe this is the long huge highway that's already referenced in anime lol
Concerning the bridge over the road... The modern road has been carved/dig into the land. There was no river or bridge in the old days. The landscape was elevated in that time.
Will you be going to the Hakone Open Air Museum while you're there? That place is amazing.
Next time for sure! Just here for the Tokaido Highway :) there was an incredible bakery next to the Moto Hakone bus station! Note to self 📝 for next time 😋
Really amazing work for 9 years dam they worked so hard back in the days!!!!💪🏻
And so good on your cold day AMAZAKE with alcohol better John!!!! 😬👍🏻
Yeah, super impressed they pulled off monumental things back then. Work or death is a strong motivator! Glad we’re in the 21st century.
@@onlyinjapanGO 100%🙌
the woman with you john looks like kanae in her older years
They both are beauties 😻 so thank for the help guiding us around Hakone!
Koto :)
i wonder if koto san as her own page that takes us around japan
She definitely should have one! An amazing guide!!
@@onlyinjapanGO Hello! How do we get in touch with the tour guide? Will be visiting in May.
John, which is the best time to visit Hakone?? But I missed this stream due to time zone differences. Just now finished watching the replay.
No bad time I think - onsen is best in fall and winter for sure! Summer has longer days. I think spring is nice, fall too. Fujisan is best in Winter because the air is clear. Best chance to see it is Nov to Feb!
look on you you tube grass growing on house roofs
its 96
The Edo period or Tokugawa period is the period between 1603 and 1867 in the history of Japan, when Japan was under the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate and the country's 300 regional daimyo.
Do they still do drift racing in Hakone?
