Amazing video! Being a former tour guide in Taiwan, I visited most spots in the vlog multiple times, but this one surely gave me a perspective of someone new to the city. Everything becomes intriguing. It was unfortunate that there was intense rain most of the time you were here. Next time perhaps you can visit other cities such as Taichung, Tainan, or Taitung!

Merry Christmas everyone :) 🎄It’s been a while since we last posted, and we’re excited to finally share this rainy journey through Taiwan with you. We know this video only captures a small glimpse of what Taiwan has to offer, and we will definitely be back to explore more spots. As for what’s next… we’ll be heading to a city known for its adorable pandas and spicy food. Can you guess where? Thank you so much for your support, and we can’t wait to share more videos with you soon 😄 - Nic and Cat

Hi! Lovely video editing. Just wondering how long the walk was from the bus stop to Okusha shrine? Also, where did you stay in Nagano? Thanks!
@littlewanderlings19 күн бұрын
Thanks so much for watching :) Only in the winter, buses don’t stop at Okusha shrine, so the best option is to take a 40 minute long walk (about 3km) from the nearest bus stop, Togakushi Chusha. We recommend taking a cab (from Chusha) if you’re travelling with older folks! As for where we stayed, it was Sotetsu Fresa Inn at Nagano Station.

@@HL00403 I would say both offer very unique experiences, but in my opinion seeing the snow monkeys in the hot springs was much more magical. Something about it is very mesmerising 😆 Togakushi Shrine is really beautiful but there are plenty of other shrines that look just as amazing too especially in the winter (and it is much harder to get to the cedar tree walkway) For the best chance of snow, I think you have to come around mid-January.

Thank you so much for the kind comment 😊 It is definitely possible to take a day trip to both, but the buses from Nagano Station to both these locations don’t run very frequently so I would not recommend it since these locations take a long while to get to using both public transportation and on foot (Snow Monkey Park involves some hiking). Perhaps you could stay a night in Nagano and take day trips to each of these places separately!

The ride was about 5 hours in total, as we had to change trains a few times (Matsumoto - Nagano - <Takasaki - Naganoharakusatsuguchi (via Kusatsu Shima limited express train)> - Kusatsu Onsen Bus Terminal (by bus). This is a pretty long route and is not optimal, though we did this to be covered under the JR Pass. I believe there is a shorter route via Kuruizawa, but that’s if you are not planning on getting the JR Pass.
