Fukui: Tourists Should Know These Places!

[@うひひ-x2w]

I'm a Japanese who was born and living at Fukui. I had so fun through this video cause my neighborhood are shown many times. Thanks introducing about Fukui.

[@NomadicGaijin]

I really love Fukui, I wish more people would visit! Thank you for watching the video and I appreciate your comment!

[@MisfitKatt]

I am visiting Japan and will be in Sabae around the beginning of November. I was trying to look into the local transportation. As I won't have a car. I am excited to see the garden and the pandas but I also am looking forward to maybe getting a pair of glasses made. Would love any insight from a local. Thanks

[@NomadicGaijin]

@MisfitKatt Im not a local of the area but I’m happy to ask my friend that lives there

[@bigt7841]

great video! Fukui so underated and glad covered this time! Eiheiji is one of the most surreal temples and Tojimbo also stunning! Fukui also offers a variety of local foods including ramens! I hope to see more videos like this one Japan has way many more places deserving attention other than Tokyo!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you! I honestly have only done one Tokyo vid for another channel, but personallly I feel it’s too overdone and there is so much out there like Fukui that deserves way more attention! Fukui is top tier for me I love it 😍

[@bigt7841]

@@NomadicGaijin I love your works and admire your dedication! I was able to find your channel when I watched the tottori one which I also loved so much. I hope your videos reach out a lot more visitors to keep in mind Japan offers a lot more!

[@NomadicGaijin]

@bigt7841 that really means a lot, thank you! I’m planning to do a lot more of that kind of content this year, I really want to show more of the untraveled path definitely

[@aidoooh1]

Its a big dream of mine to one day see the countryside of Japan. I'll take what I can get for now so it's a privilege to vicariously experience it through your channel and this stunning video. Thank you. 12/10

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you for the nice comment, and I hope you can travel the countryside of Japan sometime 😊 it was a lot of fun doing this video and I’m happy you enjoyed it 😃

[@Gexps]

I am excited to see what Fukui has to offer, thank you for taking your time and taking us for a ride.

[@NomadicGaijin]

It was a great trip and happy to have you all join for the ride, thank you for watching!

[@didibryan]

Cool video! We're just about to head to Fukui today and glad we caught you video just before we left =) Will definitely try to hit up some of the places you visited! Thank you for sharing!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Very glad to hear it! Enjoy Fukui, and if you have any questions feel free to message me on SMS or you can ask here too. I’m not an expert on it but I’m always happy to help if I can 😊

[@koaxi]

While in Katsuyama you should've have gone to 越前大仏 and the the dinosaur museum. Both are worth the trip up there. 👍

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you! Yeah we wanted to do so much more but I was only there for a few days and also filmed his house video in that time, would love to do a part 2 sometime 😁

[@arthobbitworks791]

Can't wait to try the food see it all.

[@NomadicGaijin]

Fukui is a place I really love that honestly most people even Japanese people I meet know little about, definitely a place to check out

[@chrisr6782]

Great places, great video! Also very smooth and relaxing voice-over. Only downside ist the huge wanderlust it gives me 😉

[@NomadicGaijin]

I’m glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching! You should wander, if you can 😊

[@FungusUSMC]

This is like watching a full travel show on NHK. Fukui really reminds me of Iwakuni, without the loud ass fighter jets flying above lol

[@NomadicGaijin]

Yeah it was great of Ralph to take me around (I actually hit send when I messaged him 😄) I love Fukui

[@tonisbalonis4823]

This was great!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you! It was a real pleasure and a big thanks to Ralph for being an awesome tour guide

[@jadugniko3245]

4k??? I'm speechless right now

[@NomadicGaijin]

Is that a good thing...or a bad thing...

[@emlynlofthouse1276]

Seems like the place moved you on many occasions, which is a good sign that a place is worth visiting. Thanks for showing us somewhere a bit different and off the beaten track.

[@NomadicGaijin]

Those are my favorite places to visit, the ones that are less traveled and I was surprised that I could be moved that much in a two day trip, really can’t wait to go back 😊

[@pigo-san]

Thanks for the great video again. Can you do 60p videos instead of 30p?

[@NomadicGaijin]

Unfortunately some of my gear maxes at 4k 30p, also the general recommended for KZbin is 30 (or 29.97) I hope I can upgrade the gear more in the future. thanks for the feedback though always appreciated

[@tamarazi]

This is such a amazing place to be in!

[@NomadicGaijin]

It is such a great place even if Ralph disagrees 😄

[@theguy2636]

Really great video

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thanks! Enjoyed the live chat as well during the premier

[@eugenelojhin]

I discovered this channel on reddit 😂

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thanks for checking it out! Yeah my Reddit seems to be very much tied to my channel

[@WanderersArchive]

13:57 The statures were deliberately destroyed when Japanese government (Meiji) made an official policy of separation of Shinto and Buddhism. Anyways nice adventure, I enjoyed it a lot.!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you!!!! I asked a few people and Shoko searched too we couldn’t find the answer, but I makes sense. I knew about the government crackdown no idea why I didn’t consider that point 😅

[@gamingdxg]

Nice video. I have lived in Fukui for about 2 years now. It's a good place (to visit). Here are some pros and cons from my own opinion about living in Fukui, if you are interested. Overall, you will have a good time here...for a while. Pros: Amazing food Beautiful nature Decent beaches ...That's it really Cons: Ugly cities (very boxy and industrial looking. This is typical in Japan) A lot of traffic Poorly maintained and designed road systems Crazy snow storms in the winter Poor public transport (you really need a car here) People are very xenophobic About 3.5 hours away from closest international airport The schools are very old with out dated interior as if from the 80's (if you were going to teach here)

[@NomadicGaijin]

I think as a visitor I really enjoy Fukui, but maybe living there would be different

[@dayla8634]

"People are very xenophobic" that is most of Japan.

[@NomadicGaijin]

Happy New Year buddy 🥳

住んでみてとても好きで、気にいってくれている外国人もいらっしゃいます。 本当に酷い事を書く人ですね。 醜い都市だなんて。 地方ではどこも車は必須です。福井だけでは有りません。 吹雪がどこがクレイジー?　雪国の普通の景色です。 吹雪がいやなら、最初から暖かい所に住めば良かったでしょう!!💢😡先に調べれば雪国かそうでないかくらい、そんな事もわからなかったのですか? 福井の事を、終わってから悪く言い、私達の心を傷つける。 醜い都市?　あなたの心が醜く、だから嫌われたのでしょう。 外国人をみな嫌う福井人では有りません。ちゃんとどんな人間か観察しています。 文章からみて、少し冷たく偉そうな態度が感じられます。

[@PlasticOccasion]

I’m also here from reddit. I guess it pays to stay up late and watch random people make live videos

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you for joining the stream and checking out the channel 😊 I am a very random person making live videos 😂

[@cybertones942]

Honest people great stuff

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you for checking out my channel and this video 😊 it’s fun to make videos in Japan, definitely editing is very difficult I am still learning every day. Let’s do our best 😁
