Is it possible to visit here for one day only and not sleep there?

I love Koyasan. I love how peaceful and calm the place is, especially Okunoin. I went there last year and experienced my first snow. It was still autumn (Nov 18) so i was not expecting to snow. Koyasan gifted me with snow on my bday (few days after my bday. LOL). My favorite place in Japan. Hope to be back soon.

Wow awesome..

videolarınızı çok dikkatlice takip ediyorum 2 hafta sonra bende japonyada 19 gün geçirmek istiyorum ve notlar alıyorum, videolarınız için küçük bir eleştiri yapmak isterim, bilet ücretleri ne kadar yazarsanız çok güzel bir bilgi olacak her durak kaç dakika sürüyor evet biz bu videoyu izlerken zaman geçmiş eskimiş bir video olabilir ama japonyada enflasyon olmadığından japon yeni olarak yazarsanız bile mükemmel bir bilgi olacağını düşünüyorum. teşekkür ederim.

Kinda disappointing video. So many spots are missed. I want to believe in that you couldn't get permission to shoot video, rather than doing a sloppy research.

東京に住む日本人です。たまに横浜には旅行に行きます。いつも同じホテルに滞在します。赤い靴バスで毎日気ままに出掛けます。ホテルは野毛の入口にあり、夜はJazz live観たり、飲み歩いたり、歩いてホテルに帰れる。国際的ホテルも多い。東京からの日帰りはもったいない。最低2泊はしたいね。桜木町駅からの赤い靴バスが便利、乗り放題。

I was on Hieizan in august 24, such a wonderful place! I love Hieizan

Safety of tracks maintenance workers is very important

I love the cheeky and adorable animations!! Great work on the video.

I wish the government will rebuild a new castle in Kanazawa like they did in Osaka and other places .

You won’t be able to get over being naked with strangers. It’s not acceptable to see other people’s private parts, but it’s a bit confusing because Japanese people are generally comfortable being naked in onsen, but they’re prohibited from entering if they have tattoos.

I’m so glad you tube recommend your video. So inspiring! I realized there’s so much more to do in Japan. Thank you for sharing this incredible adventure.

This makes it not any less confusing lol …. I think I’d have to go with someone that has been before… this looks horrifying

Oh

This is an excellent informative guide to enjoying Toyama and the surrounding area. Thank you very much. I will try to visit in April-May of 2025. I’m already looking forward to it.

Do you have wear a jacket and pants to the check in? was thinking of playing the fuji course mentioned in your blog but dont want to lug a jacket around with me for the trip.

Japan is such a sensation to experience!

I live in south Iwate and I love it!

I think I will not onsen... I like hot springs and grew up with them but there is a difference in traditions (privacy is very important here). I could not shower and bathe naked with my tattoos under tape with strangers. I would have to pay for a private bath and that is an expense I cannot afford.

If you want to know what Tokyo was like during the Edo period, we recommend going to Kawagoe.🌸⛩

11:18 she has to say 'how it tastes-bitter,sweet,fruit-like,wine-like'....instead of just 'so refreshing'.

This seems so stressful

I know that voice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

which of the ones you shared in this video are tattoo friendly with or without tattoo patches?

How much does it cost to enter

I love to enjoy onsen when in Japan. I have been so several onsen places mentionned in the video. And I also like the hotels with a public bath, which is not a real onsen, but is still a very warm bath with some minerals. Like most of the Dormy Inns, who also often have an outdoor bath. They are very affordable, and of course not as special as a lovely ryokan with a real onsen. But still, I enjoy them a lot.

What onsen is shown at 2:19? We plan actually a trip to Japan

Hello, i would like to know who did you manage all these palces in one day? isnt it a little bit of a rush? doesnt it?

Hi, I'm watching this in 2024. Does most of this apply now?

Big recommendation for Kashiwaya ryokan (Shima onsen, Gunma prefecture). We went there a few years ago for an authentic onsen experience. They have three outdoor and scenic Kashikiriburo available at no extra cost for hotel guests and they don't need to be booked either, so it's perfect for people with tattoos. We had a fantastic dinner too, served in our room. The room was a good size, comfortable and had a view of the river. It's a small village in the mountain, but there were a few shops open to enjoy local food and drinks. And as a special treat for Ghibli fans, the village is reportedly home to the red bridge from Spirited Away! As tattooed people, we also went to: - Ryokan Yunosako (Kurokawa onsen, Kumamoto prefecture) with a few Kashikiriburo as well as rooms with private onsen. Nice walks nearby and a konbini just a few minutes away on foot. - Morinoyu Yufuin Yasuha (Yufuin onsen, Oita prefecture) who let me use the superb milky cobalt blue rotemburo with my tattoos (after I kindly asked the staff and agreed to make a swift exit should other guests arrived, but we also had a bath in our room). The dinner course there was absolutely top tier, we stayed for 2 night and both meals were worthy of the fanciest restaurants. The only caveat is that it's located on a steep hill, so keep it in mind if you walk.

I have been to a number of onsens in Japan and all of them require you to shower and clean yourself before going in. Why does this video say rinse yourself?

Are there still konyoku onsens in Japan where both men and women bathe together? From what I read, these are now dwindling and they require swimsuits or coverings for both genders, but there are others that only the females are required to have coverings but the males still bathe fully naked.

I will go to Tokyo with my family soon

Saved for later! ❤❤❤❤❤

1:06 guess I'm drinking a few beers lol

I stayed 4 days in Kinosaki Onsen at the Nishimuraya Honkan, that was the highlight of my 30 day stay in Japan 2023!

I love onsen!!! I had the privilege to experience them in Nikko, in the hotel rotenburo. It was snowing! The combination of snow from above and the hot water below erased all pains, stress and preoccupations!! Never have I been so relaxed in my life ♨

I may add my two onsen favorites, both located in Teshikaga, Hokkaido. First, Kawayuonsen, an actual onsen town just east of Lake Kussharo. The sulfur smell in the streets should have warned me that the water could be a little acidic.. Well, safe to say, without much japanese skills, at some point while soaking in the hot water, I made the mistake of touching my eyes with my watery hands. Later I learned, that the pH value of that water was 1.4 and a standard large nail will fully dissolve in about a week time. Besides, the bath was truly amazing, especially during winter! As for my number two, it is Kotan Onsen right at Lake Kussharo. It is free of entry and you are requested to wear clothes, as it is a mixed gender bath. It is outside and overlooks Lake Kussharo, which is especially incredible during the height of winter, where the lake fully freezes, besides a few spots at its shore where hot springs fuel the lake, thawing it in the process. Every hour a person will come and check the water temperature, but if it gets too hot (in winter), just stand up, sit on one of the larger rocks outside, or go for a quick snow walk. The -10°C will cool you down quickly 😆

I know it's not the actual point of the video, but seeing Sam besides Raina and Matt was so nostalgic! Feels like 2019 😆
