🇯🇵[4K HDR] Walking Sunday morning rural Japan Oita Takio

On Sunday morning, I took a leisurely walk around my wife's hometown. The elementary school and junior high school that my wife attended.
An unmanned station, a railroad crossing too small for a car to pass through, and a shrine on the smallest mountain in this town.
Everything was luxuriously relaxing.

[@LETSSEE555]

Thank you for your compliment. I feel motivated when I receive praise. I'm so glad!!!

[@c0v3n4n7]

As always, another wonderful video. Thank you for sharing.

[@LETSSEE555]

Thank you for always watching my videos.😃 I shot a new video two hours ago.The morning sun was so beautiful.☀️ I'll edit it now. Please look forward to it!

[@c0v3n4n7]

@@LETSSEE555 Absolutely! Whenever I get notified of a new video, I watch it immediately. I really enjoy your content. Thank you for sharing it with us.

I never thought there would be people looking forward to my videos, so I'm very happy and encouraged. Where should I shoot a video next?🧐 I'm thinking about it😆

@@LETSSEE555 Thank you for your words. I love Japan and personally, what I love to see is things that are not common in other places in the world, for example: Natural Attractions like Beppu Onsen, Yufuin, Takachiho Gorge, Jigoku Meguri. Cultural and Historical Sites like Usa Jingu Shrine, Kitsuki Castle Town, etc. Japan as so much to see that I'm grateful to be able to watch some of it in your videos.

[@LETSSEE555]

@@c0v3n4n7 I'd like to confirm. Is it okay to interpret that you like things in my videos that don't exist anywhere else in the world? For example, Beppu Onsen...etc. I have been videotaping those things. I think I will continue to do so. However, what I want everyone to see is what lies behind it. For example, why do people gather at Beppu Onsen? Why is Yufuin so crowded with tourists from overseas? How did Yufuin, which has poor transportation links, become such a tourist destination? Although there are hot springs, it used to be a deserted rural area. I want you to think about why people came to gather and enrich this town, and I want you to take hints from the video and connect it to the prosperity of your own country. Prosperity is not only an economic issue, but also a cultural one. I'm happy when people find something and take it home. I learned something important from you today. Thank you, please let me know your opinion again!

Wow the rice fields are very close to the residential areas 😃

[@LETSSEE555]

This area was originally just rice fields. After that, houses were built one after another, and rice fields remain between the houses.

[@katykay2761]

@LETSSEE555 Ah you have answered me already 😄 thank you for the information 💕💕

[@katykay2761]

@LETSSEE555 Does that mean there were more rice fields before, and then some farmers sold their lands?

[@LETSSEE555]

Previously, this area was mostly rice fields. However, rice paddies gradually disappeared due to factors such as the lack of income from agriculture, the development of secondary and tertiary industries after the Greater East Asia War, and the increased demand for housing for people engaged in those industries. The number of houses increased. Some farmers sell their rice fields, while others earn income by building apartments. I've heard that some farmers open coin-operated laundromats as a tax measure.

@LETSSEE555 Now I'm learning some history and economics of Japan as well 😃 thank you thank you 💖💖 Can' t say it enough to a great teacher 🙂

​@LETSSEE555 Congratulations 🎉🎉 And also I really like the ambience of this video. It's like you were filming at the moment of the rain just stopped but the sun hadn't fully come out yet. It might rain more... 😃💓💓 It's very rare in other walking videos

I haven't seen so many schools together in one place 😄

[@LETSSEE555]

Well, the elementary school, junior high school, and kindergarten are all well-organized. There are several such schools in Oita City.

@@LETSSEE555 I always heard that the Indian kids are very smart students because they usually win the Spelling Bees in America. Are the students in Japan hard working too? 😃

During the Edo period (1603-1868), Japanese children learned letters. The characters are kanji, hiragana, and katakana. Since this is a long time ago, there are various theories, but it is said that when the literacy rate in London was 20% and the literacy rate in Paris was 10%, the Japanese literacy rate was between 50% and 60%. It is said that in Edo (now Tokyo) the rate was probably over 70%. This is because at that time in Japan, there were always many temples in every village and town, and there was a habit of learning letters from childhood. Farmer's children were also learning to write. It is said that the high literacy rate in Edo was due to the large number of samurai and merchants living there. It is said that there was no samurai who could not write. In addition, the children learned how to use a calculator called an abacus and how to write letters using a brush called calligraphy. Children in Japan today are learning a lot of things, but this is not something that just started.

[@katykay2761]

@LETSSEE555 first of all, thank you for the information. I didn't expect to learn so much about Japan culture. Are you a teacher yourself? You don't need to answer. It's your privacy and I respect that. But if you're, please know that you're a great one 😊👍👍💖💖

[@katykay2761]

The houses here are relatively bigger than many other places. Must be very comfortable living there 😃

[@LETSSEE555]

The residents of this area are all nice people. Farmers work together when planting, harvesting, and weeding, so I think their communication skills are high. There are many kind and considerate people. Farm houses tend to be larger than those in urban areas.

[@katykay2761]

@LETSSEE555 thank you for explaining 💕 Are they all growing rice here? 😃

[@LETSSEE555]

Although there is still farmland left, there are few people involved in farming these days, and most people do other jobs.

[@katykay2761]

@LETSSEE555 why do the farmers there just grow rice but not other things like fruits and flowers? Those can sell for more, I guess 😃

[@LETSSEE555]

@@katykay2761 Thank you for your compliment. I am very glad. I think it's hard to understand for you because my answers are always long. Please be patient. I'm not a teacher. I'm just an ordinary person who can be found anywhere. I just talk about what I learned in school, what I read in books, what I saw on TV, and what I Googled.😆 Maybe I just like knowing. Going back to the topic, there are certainly farmers in Japan who grow vegetables and fruits in addition to rice cultivation. There are farmers who make a living from it. However, it seems that it cannot compete with cheap foreign products. Japan has limited land to begin with, so large-scale agriculture is not possible like in other countries. So they cannot produce cheap crops. This is the weakness of Japanese agriculture. Vegetables and fruits are also grown, but I think most of them are grown on a small scale for farmers to eat themselves. Have I made myself clear? Thanks a lot!
