4K・ 【4K】Walking in Kusatsu - town of onsens (hot water streams)

[@chahahc]

I'm very curious to see how these videos will be viewed 20-30 years from now. Maybe something like Lyle Saxon's videos of the early 90s. Though he really cut up the footage to the point where his videos are rather difficult to watch. Since this seems to be the only channel I've come across with such long videos of basically pure uninterrupted high quality documentation, these videos may end up having some serious historical value in the future.

[@jase276]

Rambalac and Nippon Wandering TV are the best in this area.

[@TheTishbite]

I agree. I think they could be used now for those studying Japanese culture, etc.

[@Zauchi]

this is what google maps should be 😂

[@micky4fun]

Interesting comment. My quick answer would be: "It's hard to say since society in general is changing so rapidly." Japan is a special case, though. For one thing, the breakdown of the population in Japan is so different from other countries with so many senior citizens over 60 y/o, few younger people, and one of the lowest birthrates in the world, it is predicted that in 50 years the country may look nothing like today, and this is likely to have an impact of the look of cities, etc. Add to that Japan's obsession with technology and the fast rate at which old, traditional buildings are being replaced by bland western looking ones adds to a strange mix which you can already see especially as one drives around the country's main island.

@Infinite D Japan will be fine as long as it isn't affected by mass immigration of other cultures.

[@Red-hq5vp]

[@tobeymaguire9371]

And the camera is still steady af.

[@elliefors6006]

These videos are actually really therapeutic to watch. Thank you for the high quality content!

[@Ad_Valorem]

Rambalac - Thank you so much! Your vids offer a constant stream of serendipitous experiences in addition to the featured attraction; 1:03:53 a red Lexus LC500 ($100k+ in the U.S.) and a few seconds later a similarly rare silver BMW, both parked outdoors.

[@РаисаСтасилович-ц6з]

Каждая прогулка - неповторима! Всегда есть что-то особенное! Большое спасибо за приятный променад!!!

[@melchbox6571]

Mannn I really like this! As much as I appreciate stylish and edited travel videos, they kind of give a false impression. Like something that can only be experienced in a movie or show. This just feels so much more authentic! Like I'm really there walking around taking in the scenery. I wish more videos were like this.

[@ДинараДавлетова-ш8с]

Живописный, курортный городок с японской душой, особенно его старая часть. Чудесная прогулка, спасибо. Важно: у Вас такие продолжительные пешие видео-прогулки, что бегать по лестницам - это несколько опрометчиво, берегите себя!

[@XolTheGreat]

this is so unbelievable satisfying to watch and I dont know why. Ive always wanted to visit japan and your videos are the closest thing to visiting japan than actually visiting japan and I love it

[@anapaularavelo2404]

thank you for making this videos!! even though I haven't had the opportunity to go to Japan, I feel like I did. When I watch your videos I feel even closer to this beautiful places!!

[@Meitti]

Surprising how much the town looks like a standard nordic town, with the exception of few traditional japanese style houses and the tourist attraction. And the mess of wires on top of traffic.

[@senhueichen3062]

I love it, just walk and walk....

[@nuritdavid3348]

So amazing! The uniquely Japanese combination of topography and architecture is so inspiring for me. Thank you very much . Will start watching all over again now .

[@leonardochiruzzi7642]

E' sempre uno spettacolo vedere i tuoi video. Il Giappone è meraviglioso!

[@Hieronymus1450]

I love japan and your videos are really awesome. Good work and keep going.

[@TheBAT69]

Your walking around Japan videos are the best! I don't like those intrusive faces and too much talking. I enjoy your walking video so much! The natural ambient sound also gives lots of stroies. You are showing the real beauty of the place. Thanks for your great videos and looking forward to watching more!

[@KyaniteLin]

I like the buildings in Kusatsu .Elegant.

[@TheTishbite]

Very interesting town. Great people watching walk. Loved the wave from the friendly woman and the remarks from the man at the shrine. There is twoen in the next state where my parents lived called Hot Springs, Arkansas. Lots of hills, also. Very tourist oriented. Great walk -Thanks

[@AtomekKotalke]

I live in this prefecture so I’m so glad!

[@regardzz]

what are those buckets for at 42:44 ? can you like pour some water from that tap near them or smth?

[@Rambalac]

For watering gravestones.

[@michalturlik7309]

Thank you so much @Rambalac , once again. There is only one minor issue in all your super videos :) We do not have the weather and temperature information :) But...as it can be easily argued it can not be less then 35c 80% humidity :D lol

[@kylevdr]

This place is so cool!

[@GoesUlisses]

Sem dúvida, os seus vídeos, como foi dito em outro comentário, já tem um valor histórico fundamental como documentário do Japão, mostrando sua sociedade, cultura, ambientes, cidades de uma forma única e profissional. Cada vídeo que assisto, eu fico cada vez mais fascinado por cada detalhe rico e maravilhoso desse país. Seus vídeos devem ser preservados para todos, principalmente para as próximas gerações.

ま、お茶を買った目的は特にビデオじゃなくて、1時間そとで歩くのは本当に熱いです。

[@AdeptusChiller]

Japan the land of food. On every edge food. 😋That makes me hungry. Nice video dude.

[@Techischannel]

This is almost like a Theme Park. Exept instead of Theme Park attractions its Bath Houses, Bath Huts, Bath supply shops and even more Baths and Hot Water. Besides the many other Shops going for a Healthy Body & Mind kind of stuffs ... and Beauty ofcause. And did i already mention Hot Water?

[@wilhelminacarthens2060]

I would love to make a request if you could tour the Koi fish Village, where there are narrow grated streams seen along the sidewalks with swimming Koi? As a follow-up to the beauty of water ways there.

[@Rambalac]

Do you mean near Nagasaki? Unlikely I get there this year.

[@wilhelminacarthens2060]

@@Rambalac I'm making a large breakfast, sorry about the slow reply.I will have to look it up on my video viewing history to know the name of that location, I will soon look that up and reply. Thank you always for your response.

So many neat places! You could live there a hundred years and I am sure you'd never see them all!

Hi @Rambalac! Please don't walk the stairs so fast! You could trip!!!! Be careful :3 and yes, your laugh is wholesome, i like very much. 😃😄 The place is so good for relaxing... there isn't much people around. I don't like crowded places. 😅😸

[@boxerblake1]

It's ~2.5 hours from Tokyo, so not many foreigners make it there.

[@radvelfatra]

interesting and nice town !!! great video document

[@oot007]

thanks for the great video rambalac. If you're travelling around Japan it would be great if you could do walk videos of the Ise Shima area and the gardens around the historical Shima Kanko hotels where Grace Kelly and President Obama stayed at.

[@Rambalac]

Not sure. It's too far for unknown outcome and I'm not interested in celebrities.

[@oot007]

Fair enough but it's a beautiful area of Japan. I was there many years ago so it brings back great memories. The scenery there is stunning.

[@ultimateblong]

Shenmue 4 is looking very realistic this time 'round!

[@chucksandos8939]

Nice resort town, and this hot water streams places. Many thanks! /The Microphone give good surround effect additional to best video quality :-)/

[@matthewdavis3095]

Beautiful. I always wanted to go to Kusatsu and now I have thanks to you. Do you do any locatin scouting or do you simply go and let your feet tale you where they will?

[@Rambalac]

I briefly check map, but in many situations like narrow paths it's random. This time I a bit regret I did not notice huge park on the northeast.

[@fignewton0000]

This is how deep into the quarantine I've dug myself. I'm now watching people walk around for fun

38:26 that speed after the bgm kicks in tho. This is what you get from walking a shit ton regularly. lol

[@wilhelminacarthens2060]

Okay so I'm beside myself and must be honest right now, all of the natural beauty of these Landscapes being so seductive gets me angry that I can not afford to go there.I would love to see this place, enjoying the walk in a beautiful yukata.😙

[@chucksandos8939]

One q.: @46:50 - this liquid is a natural juice, or 'chemуstere'..... ? P.S. And in general, how good are Japanese soft drinks?

[@Rambalac]

Green tea?

[@chucksandos8939]

Sure, the Green tea is very good drink 👍

[@vk3139]

Very nice, thank you for showing it!

[@MajorAddiction]

6:30 Is there a smell to the water ?

[@Rambalac]

Eggs

[@loft4me]

LOL. The sulfur smell associated with the hot springs must be pretty strong. A little touristy (okay, a lot touristy), but that is to be expected in tnis geologically active area, where the waters might hold some therapeutic benefits. Rambalac, have you dipped in one while holding a wash cloth for your only covering?

[@MindDesire88]

Interesting and beautiful city, I have never heard of her - actually, out the most famous cities of Japan, I know almost none -, thank you for the video. Just one question, my friend: on 53:15, the tower at the back, is that a church? I got curious because that kind of architecture isn't typical in Japan, if I am not mistaken.
