I cannot STRESS this enough for those planning a Japan trip with plans to stay/go to Kyoto. All of the iconic temples and places Allan put here WILL be SUPER CROWDED if you go during a normal time like 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM. So if you want to have the temples and locations more to yourself, do your self the favor and GET up early af every morning when doing iconic Kyoto attractions. The crowds in Kyoto are not to be under estimated and they will kind of drain you as you traverse the beautiful city that Kyoto is. Kyoto's public transport wasn't designed with the mass groups of tourists it gets in mind like Tokyo's super dense city a large public transport was built up over the years. Kyoto just became a hot spot in the past 10-15 years so the rapid public transport to fit hundreds of people into trains can be lacking in some areas. The buses can have large crowds to just get on the bus, I saw this when there last December. Kyoto is a beautiful city and is a must stop on anyone's Japan trip but is also VERY crowded all the time. So when you do go to Kyoto I stress that getting up early (like 5-7AM) is the best and most fun way to see Kyoto.

I cannot thank you enough for all your amazing videos, with mind-blowing photos! You have a great talent and the way you cover everything, from planning to visiting, the pros and cons, the budget/funds to allocate, and so on, it's very commendable! You have given me the determination to forget about my apprehension and visit my favourite countries. Hopefully, soon enough, I'll be able to tick off all the places on my bucket list. Meanwhile, I'll just binge watch your videos and dream of lands far far away from where I am. P.S. If you could visit Scotland, especially the Isle of Skye, and cover everything that's important to note, I'd be very grateful. Thanks! Keep up the excellent work!

They are the first to wear mask this video was before covid it’s disconcerting you didn’t look for reasons why they wouldn’t and just blatantly threw your opinion ( which is farthest from the truth) to shame people who care about others more than you .

@@nikicarrie4071 What I meant was that in this time of the pandemic where almost everyone is wearing masks, even seeing archival video, it is so unusual to see responsible people without masks that is seems jarring. I did acknowledge that it was archival video, but that at the time of viewing it just kinda shocked me. Also, I was commenting to get on the good side of the algorithm for Allan. I was simply commenting on the disjunction of the present with the past.
