It took me nearly half a century and nearly twelve thousand miles to find my true love. I hope you find yours sooner and less distance traveled. You'll know it when time slows down to a crawl. Love your videos. We're planning a trip to Japan next year in November. Would have been this year however we already made plans to see New York City.
@@marta9854 for the past few years my wife and I have found a lot of enjoyment from going different places. We love trying the different food. We have a list of places to stop to eat at in New York. We will need a list of places for Japan that we can do in two weeks.
I was in Kawagoe a week ago, I really enjoyed my day trip there. It was a very touristy thing to do but near the bell tower is a place to make your own chopsticks- it was a fun souvenir.
@@AllisoninTokyo Arigatou! Think Tokyo and environs might be way too much for me although are definitely the places to be. Interested also in the smaller hopefully less crowded areas. ; )
Hidden Mickey bush had me giggling. We were supposed to be in Japan this week and devastated our trip fell through. So I'm there again via your amazing videos!
I like these videos as an inspiration for vacation planning. Next time we'll not be in Tokyo for long and instead focus on okinawa and Kyushu, but we were thinking of doing a day trip to the village next to Fuji you showed in a video not toooo long ago.
Oh yeah Kawagoe is definitely worth a visit 💯 I such a cute little town and I enjoyed my time there a lot. And the unagi I had there was incredibly good 🤤
I need to go back to Kawagoe - I went there last year in April with a Japanese acquaintance and it was raining really heavily all day. Personally I would have given up because it was miserable and cold, but my Japanese friend was determined that we would enjoy Kawagoe, lol. We walked the main streets and went in some shops where I was embarassed to be dripping on their floors, we also had a nice lunch in a traditional restaurant known for its grilled eel cuisine. Eventually I influenced her to return to the station where we had a much nicer time in a warm English tea shop.
I want to visit japan in December 2024. Would you plz make a video how to travel in japan in December for 14 days for a couple with costs. Will be very grateful to you. And I love your vidoes
Where do you want to visit in the video? Let me know in the comments! 🤗 (p.s. I want to go back to that ashiyu cafe lol)
1:11 the reason I'm going to Kawagoe!!! haha! And the reason I stumbled into this vlog is to learn what's in there and what to do. 😃😄

that sounds fun!!
The boat ride was so beautiful: being on the water and looking up at the blossoms.
maybe one day i can do it 🥹
The blossoms look so pretty, it's like a painting but in real life 🌸🌸
Ooh I might go here! I am going at a busy tourism time, this maybe a bit quieter and it’s very cool!
So beautiful! Would love to see more day trips to less crowded, but equally cultural spots. Arigatoo!
Yess I will try!! Sometimes places like asakusa and such are just wayy too crowded 😅

It looks amazing there. Can’t wait to visit. The “it’s a clock” bit made me laugh so much by the way 🤣
I almost cut these kinds of things 😂😂
I’m going to add this place to my list😊 I can’t wait to visit.

Everything was so beautiful here! Definitely adding this to my Japan list, thanks Allison! 💜
Very nice. I esp liked the old/traditional architecture. Your music selection is very relaxing too.
Cool town. Definitely want to check it out next time I’m there 👍

So beautiful ❤🌸 I will go to kawagoe
I've already decided to go to Kawagoe when I go to Japan in half a year but this has me extra excited!

I hope you get to try it again with sun!! Rain can really ruin a trip sometimes 🥲
Such a beautiful little town ❤️.
I love Kamisama Hajimemashita! Its one of my fave rom-coms. Feel like it is underrated for sure.
i hadnt thought about it in years until I saw this picture 😂
5:32 girl you were right it’s a clock tower. lol toki no Kane.
I love ur videosss :)
Hidden Mickey bush!! 😂
You really r from Florida😀
Beautiful place to visit.👍🥰
weird question about the koi fish 🤔 but if rains, they will gather all the water ?
Hidden Mickey !!! 😍
I always thought the towers were for fire spotting in the Edo peroid as the whole place was basically kindling and always burning?
Are the places you went to all close to each other, like walkable distance? :)
The title says ``Naritasan Betsuin,'' but it is incorrect. The correct name is "Kita-in" and it is also called "Kawagoe Daishi".
i live in Kawagoe!
thats a lot of people 😅😂 it looks really cozy though
that looks like a ton of fun! im going on a few week trip to Tokyo and Kyoto in july, do you have any recommendations?
❤
What was the restaurant you ate at with the foot bath? It looked like a great idea after a day of walking. Is that a common type of restaurant?
Not to be weird Allison but have a awesome day
I was there.Praying in the Birds Tempel you may use Instructions:)😊😊😊
