I really love that you shown what can be experienced outside of the mainstream tourist spots. This is definitely going to my To-visit spots :)
I think i need to fix the thumbnail! gett more eyes on this video, loved this place :)
Another excellent video , thanks for posting . ❤
Thanks so much for the gift! I’ll be having a ramen 100%
Taking your recommendation Nathan, it’s my first trip to Japan next week staying in the ueno area 👌 only nervous about the train system 😂
I think you will be perfectly fine ... JR East has really modified the rail system to be foreigner-friendly ... on some lines there will be announcements in four languages: Japanese, Mandarin, Korean and English. Beijing metro is much more orderly than Tokyo but Tokyo Station was restored and you can really see the beauty of Meiji Era Japan ! (^_^)
Have fun! and don't worry, it will all work out :)
That looks awesome! ♥️
It is! totally worth the visit! are you home?
@@NinjaMonkeyguy yes I’m home unfortunately
❤❤❤
Had to google this one, never heard of it before. Must have a red cow!
Totally worth the red cow haha
Very cool. Have never been.
We'll have to find some beer for you, but the sake is pretty good!
This place looks so historic and comfy.But hearing the crickets singing ,its sound hot and the height of summer.The legend of the carp is amazing...i hope one day all carp become lucky dragons!I would make both of those painted cow shaped items..especially the cow bell.
Worth it just for the red akabeko toy lol !!
Great job with this video! Looks like an interesting place. I’ll need to add Aizuwakamatsu to a future trip to Japan for sure.
Its worth the visit for sure!
Well done, side trips like this I we plan into my next visit to Japan.
Yes, although this one might be a great night away too!
Thank you, this is the stuff I wanna see! Will be there in two weeks and the plan is to have no plan :D I want to do day trips all over the country.
Sounds great! I do recommend also fitting in a night or two away from the big cities too! You won’t regret it (especially if you can do ryokan or similar accomodation)
Thanks for introducing me to this area 🎉 I love the idea of renting a bike here Ninja 🐒
This is my plan to introduce people to places with less tourism but still tourist friendly and worth the visit! hope you make it one day!
A very nice tour video. Aizuwakamatsu is a postal town that I'd like to visit. It appears that there is a lot to do there. So I will put it on my ever expanding list of places in Japan that I'll have to go. Off to check out the partial solar eclipse. How many bottles of sake did you take to help you remember (maybe) your trip to this scenic town?
Enjoy the stargazing! I didnt take any as this was towards the start of my trip!
@@NinjaMonkeyguy That sounds very depressing. Nathan how will get to know what your doing without practice. It must be done.
Another ' best kept secret' of Japan is Shikoku and the multiple small islands off Takamatsu i the Seto Inland Sea. We were there, by sheer accident of timing, during the Triennial Art Festival and it was still very quiet, with almost no foreign tourists.
I love that area and i actually have a series on it from a few years back! maybe time to return huh!
It's frustrating to me,... when people there speak their dialect I can't understand a single word ! (>-
Loving your videos as I’m dreaming about a second trip to Japan. How common is it to find English speakers, menus, signage, etc., in this city? I know only the polite basics of Japanese.
Like anywhere out side of the major cities english might be less available but it’s still easy to navigate with broken English and google translate .. don’t let the language barrier deter you
@@NinjaMonkeyguy Great to know. Thanks for the reply.
Can someone suggest some places around Kyoto/Tokyo which are not that cold in February and beautiful just to enjoy the landscape/city or the onsens? 😢 i have around 2 week time
Kinoseki onsen is a nice trip from Kyoto, it will be cold anywhere you go really around that period
ww! ... Meiji is my most cherished era so I can't stand Bakufu and samurai (the only exceptions are Yamamoto Yae and Nakano Takeko) ... also, in this region are Okiagari-koboshi if you like toys ... actually, I think it is really easy to escape tourists, just go to any museum featuring Western art (^_^) ...
Hahaha.. yes but, then when you get back out it's full of tourists again :)
@@NinjaMonkeyguy hmm,... in Kiba and Funabashi this is not the case (^_^) ... ah! I like Saigo Takamori too but he was a traitor to the Meiji government.
