Our INCREDIBLE 72 Hours In KYOTO (most beautiful city in Japan?)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.ค. 2024
- This was our third trip to Japan and out of the 100 countries we've been to, we think Japan takes the number 1 spot for most unique and distinct!
Before you comment "there's no such thing as MORE or MOST unique"... We know, we just mean that Japan is the country with the least in common with other countries and with the most distinct culture and feel.
We are Oskar & Dan, two boys from Sweden who decided to change the course of our lives, drop out of university, and live life full-time🧔🏻👱🏻♂️ We've been together for eight years and have been traveling together pretty much since day one✈️ We're trying to see and learn as much about the world as possible before we settle down somewhere in the world👨👨👧👦 In 2022, we completed our goal of visiting 100 countries at the age of 25🌍 Check our TH-cam About page for more details👨🏼🤝👨🏻❤️

Japan was country 38, first visited in 2018🌍
We started our trip in the Keihanshin region, which is Japan's second largest metropolitan area after Tokyo, made up of the cities Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto, Nara, and other smaller ones. After eight days around this region, we hopped on the Shinkansen bullet train twice, first to Hiroshima and then to Fukuoka. From there, we took a boat to Busan, South Korea (we were SO excited about this ferry ride between Japan and Korea!) before catching a train to Seoul and flying home from there!
Thank you for watching!🙏😍

Thank you guys for watching as always❤❤ Arigato gozaimas🥰 We wanted to give this one more of an educational spin while staying true to our travel vlogging style - hope you like it!
Do you agree? Which point do you think is the strongest case for why Japan is so unique? Do you think another country deserves the title of most unique?😉
The quest for perfection.

I went to Tokio and Kyoto in 2016 with my brother and mother. It was on the wishlist from my brother somehow it was his last wish. He died two years later after fighting cancer. I‘m so glad we did this trip together. Japan is amazing and it wont be my last trip despite the all the emotions I connect with the country
😢❤️🙏🙏
That's such a sad yet powerful story❤️
Thank you for choosing Japan for your brother's last trip. Rest in peace.
I can see why you like Japan as Scandinavians. The zen design, aspects of the culture, food, minimalism and sensibility is very similar between Scandinavia and Japan.
I've enjoyed this vlog sooo much! One of my biggest dreams is to visit Japan someday. There really is something very special about that country.
I have been to over 100 countries and Japan is my favourite. I’ve just returned from my 6th visit there and already want to go again! It is unique and has so much to offer with amazing gardens and temples. I think Kyoto is probably the most beautiful city there. The people must be the most polite and friendly in the world and seem so genuine so I think this is the strongest case for why Japan is unique.
best month to go in Japan?

April！

日本には四季があるのでなんとも言えませんが、、、
１０月頃はとても美しいです。
1月…北は雪景色が綺麗。新年なので人の移動が多い。
2月…椿が咲いていることもある。デパートやスーパー等でバレンタインデー用に高級チョコレートやかわいいチョコレートがたくさん売られる。
3月…上旬はまだ寒く梅が見頃。下旬頃、南の沖縄から桜が開花。
4月…今年は上旬で桜が満開に。桜を見るなら3月末〜4月上旬。桜が散った後もツツジや藤の花が美しい。ただし、進級や新社会人、桜目当ての外国人の移動が多い。
5月…4月下旬からの大型連休で人の移動が多い。5/5のこどもの日のために鯉のぼりを大々的に飾っている地域もある。大量の鯉のぼりを見るのはおすすめ。
6月…雨が多い季節（梅雨）。雨の中でも紫陽花が美しい。近年は大雨洪水になる傾向がある。
7月…梅雨明けして本格的な夏になるが、上旬までに来た方が良い。中旬くらいから灼熱すぎる。場所によってはお盆のため人の移動がある。
8月…暑さに慣れない人は来ない方が良い。インド人すらも『日本の夏は死ぬ』と言うほど暑い。ただ夏祭りの花火や沖縄の海、そうめん流しは楽しい。場所によっては中旬はお盆なので人の移動が多い。また、台風が多い季節で予定していた旅行がなくなることもある。
9月…まだ暑い。でも灼熱の8月よりはいくらかまし。9月のお彼岸の頃に一斉に咲く彼岸花と黄金に輝く稲穂は一見の価値あり。
10月…少しずつ過ごしやすくなる。金木犀が香り始める。10/31のハロウィンで仮装する人達もいる。
11月…11/3の文化の日という祝日はどこかしらでお祭りがあるので見てみると良い。おでんやコンビニの肉まん等が美味しくなる季節。
12月…クリスマスや年末のため、売られるものがケーキやお正月の飾りが増える。夜はイルミネーションが綺麗なところが多い。年末年始は宿や移動費が高くなる。
とてつもなく個人的な意見ですが、こんな感じです。
日本を楽しんでください。

If you want to go to Kyoto, October is the best time to go!
Because the leaves of the tree turn red and are very beautiful
The biggest difference between Chinese Kanji and Japanese Kanji is reading and phonetics.
Chinese characters have one reading per character.
In Japan, there are basically two ways to read kanji, called On-yomi and Kun-yomi.
There are actually two or more readings, and usually one character has many readings and sounds. Sometimes one character can have more than 10 different readings.
漢字に日本語読みをしたのが訓読み、中国語読みしたのが音読みです。音読みも漢音と呉音の2通りあり、わずかですが唐音もあります。漢•呉•唐は中国のこの時代に日本に入って来たからと言われてます。
Erm no. Many Chinese characters have more than 1 pronunciation (sometimes same 'sound' but different tones) and meaning, depending on the context - polyphones (多音字).
From the start, exquisite cherry blossoms and all those stairs are in remarkable condition. I know because I’ve been running public park staircases in NYC the past week and they can be rough! Well done making it to the top w/o a sweat.
Love the illuminated, culture shaping history you’ve included. Incredibly rich architecture in Kyoto.
After watching Non Stop Dan for a while and this is my first Oskar and Dan video, I am loving it. Will have to go watch them all now. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Welcome over here😍
Thank you for sharing your time in the beautiful city of Kyoto.
I’m currently in Japan and winding up my trip. I was just in Kyoto and stayed at the same hotel, visited the same sights and even had dinner a couple of times at the Coco Curry up the street from the Hyatt!
You really managed to get through a lot of sights in 72 hours. Kyoto's public transport is not as good as other cities, so it can get very tiring to go around.
We absolutely love Japan too!
When I was a child, I never thought that so many foreigners would be interested in and come to Japan😮‼️
I truly agree that Japan is incredible to visit!!! I can't wait to visit in July. I know it's summer but the experience that counts and I will definitely thank you Oskar and Dan for this video of yours!!!! Mabuhay from the Philippines!!!! Let's dive into the Philippines!!!!!
日本の夏はめちゃくちゃ暑いので、暑さ対策忘れずに！
はじめまして
七月は暑すぎますが\(//∇//)\楽しんでいただけると嬉しいです❤
I have gone 5 times. I love it so much that I am somewhat conversational now, after 2 years of study
Great video guys
Thank you 😊
the most touristy city in fact , used to be very nice and tourist friendly but nowadays simply overcrowded with ppl everywhere even i’m going again in 2 weeks for a few days visit to main Amanohashidate and Kobe and a couple of concerts before other going to other cities.
I'm watching this from Kyoto right now, your travel videos are very inspiring and motivated me to get out and explore, thanks guys! I've been watching you for a long time now, and I'm glad you managed to hit your target and now enjoy traveling without rush😄
P.S. I asked like 5 different people to take pictures at the Shinto shrine, people were always kind and excited to help, but the best pics were taken by solo japanese boys😄
Beautiful video guys 🥰
Best video ever! I love it so much!
WOW What a great trip!!! Those steps are steep! Also COOL history lesson! BEAUTIFUL TEMPLE!! LONG pickle! FUN cooking class.
I would say the food makes Japan so unique. Apparently, Japanese cuisine is classified by UNESCO as an "intangible cultural heritage."
(p.s. Den sista ner är en rutten skit)
日本に来て頂き感謝します。日本人として海外の方から日本を愛して下さり、ほんとに嬉しく思います。ありがとう！
外国人観光客に対する差別的なコメントが溢れる今の世の中、こういう暖かいメッセージを見ると嬉しいですね。
I have a "pug" Japanese car. A Toyota Roomy. It's easy to drive
I'm sure I was there when you were. First week of April. I absolutely love Kyoto/Nara... but I live in Kagoshima (with an active volcano across the bay).
I usually ask younger people to take my photo because older ones often can't see the screen well because they need bifocals 👓 .
Ive been there in November,, planning to go back in September to Okinawa, also to Jeju Island
I am currently living in Kyoto and I am sending out videos to let people know about the good things about Kyoto.
I am very happy that you enjoyed Kyoto.
Hello I am planning to visit next spring. When do cherry blossoms start blooming in Kyoto?
@@lalynobsuna591
The best time to see cherry blossoms in Kyoto is from late March to mid-April.
The cherry blossoms bloom from south to north, so even if the timing is off, if you head north, the cherry blossoms will still be in bloom.😊
A really lovely choice of country to return to. i endorse all you say about Japan. Wish I could have joined you for the curry! Keep on with seeing what you find. Unwell, I have had a bad week.Thanks for cheering me up!
.
A country I've seen a million travel videos from, but never get tired of. Now all we need is Oskar & Dan to do a cross over with Chris Broad, Joey Bizinger, PewDiePie, and the other members of the Japan TH-camr Cinematic Universe and my life would be complete. 😍
Omg yeees 😂😂😂🎉 And a video with sharla about cats.
Oh and staying at NekoNeko Inn!
Japan is interesting because it is a place where Western and Eastern cultures collide
Awesome vlog guys
I enjoyed this video! I have been living here in Kyoto for around 9 years. It's such a gorgeous place!
Warm welcome from island Barbados 🇧🇧, thanks super amazing videos always on point
I enjoyed listening to a little history behind the place where you visited.⛩️ 🌸🏯
I'm with you on the safety aspect. I have lived in London my entire adult life but I spend a couple months every year in Japan where my parents live. I can always feel the difference in my overall mental wellbeing when I'm in Japan. The feeling of safety and being in a high-trust society is not trivial at all and I feel this is precisely what's been sacrifised in other developed countries for the sake of economic growth and "progress". It is so important to my mental health because it means I am always at ease no matter where I am at any time of the day. In London I feel like I am often subconsciously "on guard" and have to be alert to my environment which porobably raises my overall cortisol and stress levels. Beside safety, the overall cleanliness, order, and aesthetic of the environment, and a sense of moral duty to the common good and a shared understanding with your fellow citizens are what makes Japan unique among all the developed countries and where I would like to live permanently at some point in the future.
That was amazing!!! The cherry blossoms look beautiful and I’m sure they’re very fragrant when there’s so many of them around!
Always great to see you both,particularly the new vibe,laid back & relaxed,whilst your production values have amped up.
The video looked gorgeous, but,then you're in a super photogenic country.
I have various Japanese friends, though I've never visited Japan and for me it's ghe attention to detail that sets the country and its ethos apart from other places.
Wishing you both,as always ,very best wishes to you&yours💥👊👏👏👏❤️💯💙💙👌👋⭐️'s💯✌️
To experience Japan is to experience life on a highly civilized extraterrestrial planet. Once you get used to life here, you can't go back to your star. It's very dangerous.
I lived in Japan for 4 years. Then I went back to my star. It wasn’t dangerous per se for me. Just disappointing on many levels.
東京に住んでます。
是非また日本に来て下さい☺️
楽しい動画をありがとうございます！
Love all your videos.
Japan is my number one country to visit. Love seeing what you guys did there. Thanks for sharing your travels with us!
We are always waiting for you:)💕 You'll be eating nice food every single day in Japan, so come hungry hehe
Amazing
Good vedio ❤🎉
Going there in a couple of weeks, my first ever visit to Japan, I'm sooo damn excited.
You'll love it!
@@OskarandDan so far I've spent three nights in Hiroshima and am currently spending my final night here in Nagoya before going to Osaka for a few days tomorrow. One thing I've noticed is things generally aren't as expensive as I anticipated...yet. I've still got to spend a week or so in Tokyo yet.
Nice place enjoy
