Argentina! really missed your Japan vlogs and I'm loving this video. What a beautiful place 😍💖✨️
"Japan's countryside is a gentle embrace of nature, where traditions whisper through the wind."
Love that! 💚

This is so so beautifully filmed! Each and every frame of the beautiful and serene countryside. A side to Japan that we do not get to see too often. So calming and relaxing to watch!!
Thank you 🥰
@@nishid943 ❤️😘😍
Hi from Malaysia 😊… thanks for this lovely video, I like that you kept it quiet and peaceful just capturing the sounds of nature! I visited Shirakawago in the autumn of 2023, and I found it breathtakingly beautiful with the colors of fall everywhere on the mountains and bare persimmon trees with just the ripe fruits without any leaves. There were river trout in the drains. The whole experience was just amazing. Thanks again for sharing your summer experience ❤
I am from Hong Kong and visited Shirakawa and Gokayama years ago. It's a must to stay overnight so that you can enjoy the peace in early morning and evening since it was too many tours arrived in afternoon.
Totally agree!
You made my soul breathe after a long and very tiring day.!!
I was imagining myself there. I would buy a bicycle and ride between the two villages to enjoy the beautiful scenery more and more. 🤭
Now, I can sleep peacefully.♡
Biking here would be amazing! Have a good rest 😊🍃
@@kimnadeen_ 😍😘❤️
That opening scene was so beautiful and magical!
Thank you!💕
Agree 💯
@@ivrine96 it's so beautiful ❤️

Amazing video of the Japanese countryside. Thanks. The video was very relaxing to watch.
@@AngelKen-bq2kz 🌹❤️♥️
Hello Sol,
Thank you so much for this wonderful video. Some time ago, you introduced us to Ine, which I loved, and now it's the turn of Ainokura and Shirakawa. When I go to Japan, I'll pass through these three villages.
I literally fell under the spell of Ainokura. I loved this village and its atmosphere. It has everything to please me: the mountains, the countryside, the snow in winter, the gentle way of life and these superb thatched-roof houses. A real dream with my eyes open.
As for Shirakawa, it had the same feeling as Ainokura, with the added bonus of the onsen.
Many thanks again for this video, which made me dream. I felt like I was somewhere else for an hour or so.
Good day to you and enjoy the rest of your trip.
Alain.
Hi Alain, thanks for the lovely message. All three villages were absolutely stunning, I hope you can visit one day!
@@SolLife_
Yes, Sol, I hope to be able to visit them and live there for a few days when I'm in Japan.
Have a nice day.
I only can speechless, coz my eyes took whole parts for it. Blessed to you, presented this beautiful visualization for us, especially for me. Thank you.
Such a beautiful village! Thank you for taking us with you 🍃
Just came back…Skipped Shirakawago and Kanazawa but will be in my itinerary this autumn…thanks for all the scenic and hotel
Tips! Love what you do! Keep it up!
Thank you! I’m sure it will be spectacular in autumn 🍂 !

@@travelwithedz ❤️😍
Watched the first half with breakfast today, seeing your new upload made me decide to make a fancier breakfast too :) that first half was sooooo calming! I'm sorry you couldn't sleep well there though! that's the worst! Thanks again for such a calming start to my day :) excited to watch the rest tomorrow! 🥰
The sound was wild! But I enjoyed the trip nonetheless the less ☺️. Hope you enjoy!🍳☕️
@@katecosettevocals 😍❤️
I feel like every village needs to be like this. It would be so wonderful 😄
Hi, you say there isnt much to do there, but just listening to the bird sounds anywhere in the nature there (the birdsounds are just different here)....that would be otherwordly nice for me. And that nice river, amazing! Ofcourse if you want michelin 3 star restaurants with city comforts, not for you. But just enjoying nature, so amazing!
What an artwork of a video! The view from the Kanda house is really beautiful 🤩 Since being in Kanazawa, Takayama and Shirakawa I always recommend to spend some days because I really enjoyed my time there, as you said these places are healing. Sarubobo was my main omiyage, I loved them when I knew about them in Takayama 😍 Enjoy the rest of your travel 🤗
Thanks for watching! Totally agree, a day trip wouldn't be enough!
Thank you for sharing such beauty! Truly uplifts the soul 🌹
@@jenm3056 it's so beautiful ❤️
Visited last winter but damn summer in Shirakawa-go hits different! Very scenic and picturesque even in different seasons. 😍
Thanks for sharing Sol, will definitely come back for the pudding. Hope you enjoyed your Japan summer trip!
😍👍🏻
Still thinking about that pudding 😂🍮
@@SolLife_ Oh man 🤤
Great video about a so beautiful, relaxing and picturesque Japanese village, I enjoyed it greatly! ❤
Just went there in June of this year. Went with my older sister and grandson. It was great, but lots of walking and it was hot. What do you expect in the month of June! You should go, it very different. Enjoyed this place very much.
@@mikihayashi2210 it's so beautiful ❤️
this is such a beautiful place to visit!
From Manila, Philippines.thank you for sharing, awesome rural country of Japan, so serene and rejuvenating, food for the soul❤
@@Jesus-r3v8j it's so beautiful ❤️
A very relaxing vlog, Sol. Don’t you want to move back to 🇯🇵 again.. 🥰🥹😆
I reallyy love your travel vlogs in unique places in japan as I aspire to do the same one day!!
Thanks for watching! Great idea! I’ll see if I can make a video on it one day 🥰
Great video,Gifu is such a beautiful village...❤
So amazing Thank you for capturing such a beautiful clips for us 😍
Glad you enjoyed it!
looks straight out of a painting!!! will plan to visit that place in the future
So, beautiful... some of the countryside reminds me of parks in Kentucky and northeast Ohio. So calming and peaceful.
Omg so beautiful! I wish I could go there someday! But you are so brave bringing your heavy luggage with you on the side of the road! I don’t think I could do it! Thanks for sharing another amazing video - I love all your Japan travel ideas!
Thanks for watching! Definitely not easy traveling with a luggage bag! Hope you can visit some day!
I thought only Europe was beautiful but there are many lovely places in Japan as well. Love it. 🥰🥰 Thanks for sharing 🫶🫶
Such a beautiful place ✨ lots of Only Yesterday vibes. So happy when the weather works out for you, when you get your atmospheric coffee fix and find time away from the crowds 🫶🏻
Definitely!! ☕️☕️
This is so beautiful and relaxing to watch 😊 feels like Ghibli indeed!
I just found your channel today and I really appreciate that you keep in so many of the natural sound and nit try to cover everything up with music.
Hi Sol. Really interesting and relaxing video. Ghibli type village and good coffee shops, sounds like a place you might retire to.🤔🛖☕
Totally looked like a Ghibli movie! 😍🍃
@@jwfloating-world ❤️😍🎉
I haven't been able to go here in my first visit to japan but I will prioritize this next time. This is so beautiful
So amazingly filmed ❤ I was here in winter of 2023 😊
It’s so nice to see you back in Japan😊
Nice to be back 😊✨
Fascinating...so peaceful, but i agree the frogs would have kept me awake as well in the 1st town. The houses, the atmosphere are so peaceful during the day at both places. Great idea too show us these towns and traditional japan architecture and cuisine. Awesome...ps trooper for lugging around the luggage 😅😊 thank you!
Thanks for watching! The luggage was definitely a struggle 😂💪
Great video! I've just started making these kinds of videos and it's a very enjoyable hobby. Keep it up!😁
3:45 the moment the camera entered the cafe my heartbeat slowed down and mind relaxed
I always love the countryside!😍
Japan countryside is really so beautiful🌱❤️

I always wanted to go Shirakawago, I had visited Japan many times almost to every region in Japan except Okinawa but have yet to set foot in this beautiful place.
Very atmospheric, beautiful
