  • This time, I rode the Ikoma Cable Car to the Ikoma Sanjo Amusement Park in Nara Prefecture. The Ikoma Cable Car has uniquely shaped cars, and it was fun both to see and ride.

    I salute these drivers for bringing joy to their passengers. Enduring so much whimsy on a daily basis must be a challenge! 😂

    It's amazing to show those parts of Japan where not many content creators go. This is the true beauty of Japan.

    Those cable cars were so cute. Of course they have to allow adults because Japanese parents don't let their children go about w/out them do they? That had to be the most quiet amusement park I've ever seen. No loud music. No children screaming or shouting. Wow! Of course, very clean. I'm always so impressed.

    My parents in law lived in Ikoma for years, so I've ridden this amazing train a few times.

    Everytime I think of Nara I think of Nara Dreamland, that amusement park that copied Disneyland

    Maybe i should move to japan. I am searching for happiness

  • @colin4796

    It is great to see these retro rides and gaming machines have been maintained and kept for future generations. So many have been destroyed and are now just memories.

  • @LittleBigTruths

    I hope on one of your adventures, you will stop by Monster Hunter themed cafe for meal & show off the place. 😊

    The cat cable Car reminds me of Elton John 😂

  • @chloevalantinettv3789

    oh my goodness! ALL the trains and rides where super cute! and i love the views you shared too! Also, you should never feel silly riding anything alone even as an adult, because we're all still children at heart too! Your lunch looked so very YUM and amazing! I'll for sure go see this park with my own eyes when I move to Tokyo soon for school! Thank you for another wonderful video, and stay safe and wonderful yourself, my friend!

    I never thought I plan my trip around all the different trains and cable cars I want to take, but here we are!! I'm so excited to have a unique travel experience in this way.

  • @arcane438

    Love seeing hidden gems like this! It looks so well maintained!

    The amusement park is so gorgeous with the cherry blossoms! The fact that the cat and dog funiculars meow and bark respectively when they pass each other is adorable! I'm glad they did that, on top of theming the cable cars after a dog and a cat, because it's the little things that count! And the cake-themed one on the Sanjō Line is just as cute! The fact it goes through an actual neighborhood shows it's more than just a tourist attraction, it's an actual commuter line for people! Geography is a key reason why transit isn't a one size fits all, as in while a mode of transit may work in one place, it may not effectively work in another! As shown here, in the case of mountainous cities or mountainous neighborhoods of cities, using cable cars/gondolas, funiculars, or maybe a monorail may be the best option! When you build funiculars in urban environments like here, you get to both serve all the people who live on such hill and get a bunch of tourism revenue from people riding it for fun or in this case, to get to an amusement park! It's a win-win!

    The train carts barking and meowing at each other is too cute 😊

  • @billhoward351

    Thank you for showing us place in Japan that you can relax and have fun!!! So beautiful!!

    As you mentioned, the Hōzanji Line is the oldest commercially operated funicular in Japan as it opened all the way back in 1918! Hōzanji station serves the Hōzan-ji temple which wasbuilt in the 1670s and was officially dedicated to the deity Acala/Fudō Myōō, though it has become a cult-center of the deity Kangiten or the god of bliss, the Japanese Buddhist equivalent to Hindu god Ganesha. What's now the temple was originally a place for the training of Buddhist monks as Mount Ikoma was originally an object of worship for the ancient people in the region, and thus this area was selected as a place for religious training. The training area is said to have opened in 655 by En no Gyōja, the founder of Shugendō, and it's where monks like Kūkai, who founded Shingon Buddhism, was trained. When the Ikoma rail tunnel was built after a difficult construction, Ikoma got rail access to places like Nara and Osaka, and thus more people moved to the area, eventually leading to the Ikoma Cable Car and the amusement park!

  • @Tabiumiola

    your approach to creating content is refreshingly original!

  • @Hailstormand

    Honestly, the part I look forward to each and every of your video is the food and/or eating part. Thank you for bringing us the views of the foods.

  • @tiredrich

    I didn't realise Osaka was such a sprawling metropolis. Also I laughed at the WHATS THAT oh it's a squirrel as a snail.

  • @weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars

    Utterly magnificent and such a magical place, so very beautiful ❤ I was also greatly pleased to see the swallows nest too. They're due to arrive any day here in the UK, I absolutely love them ❤
