Japan's Squirrel Park!

★Cat Merch! crowdmade.com/collections/jun...
- The squirrel park (Kinka Squirrel Village) is right next to Gifu Castle. Gifu Castle is kind of a smaller Japanese castle, but it was only 200 yen to get inside and the view was beautiful! August is maybe not the best month to visit unless you like sweating. OH and super close to all of this is the Gifu uchiwa fan shokunin that we made a video about a few years ago! We stopped by and he said he occasionally gets people in who saw him in our video, which is neat. :D Here's the map: goo.gl/FV29rx
Castle & Squirrel village are a little southeast up the mountain!

oh hi guys

[@user-th3jn2fv4c]

Rachel & Jun's Adventures! Hiiii😁😄❤

[@czern6330]

Hello. Where is my owl?:

[@litzo5957]

Rachel & Jun's Adventures! hai

[@_andrew_]

Hi!!

[@densho]

You don't upload much anymore :(

[@matthijsrood6252]

I'm watching this and my grandma is peeking over my shoulder, "when is that asian boy going to release a cooking video again?"

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

hahahahaha

[@spongeboobx16]

Matthijs Rood I agree with your grandma, I just adore the cooking videos 😄

[@HenSt-gz7qj]

maybe a curry next? :D

[@conanscupofhottae7143]

Matthijs Rood me if i was grandma though

[@givmi_more_w9251]

Question is, does she watch for the cooking, the asian boy or the cats? :P

[@xexrar7289]

When you live in New York and your backyard is basically a squirrel village

[@piguy3945]

Facts lol

[@kaliarecords1511]

Kriya Muzo so true, the squirrels in NYC genuinely do not care lol; I had one jump on my head and just stay there for a solid hour.

[@morganhinton5519]

Or anywhere in US...lol😂

[@thorexe1164]

Better put up a no petting sign

[@anthonyfanchin1144]

I live in Florida. They're everywhere.

[@CursedSilver]

Hey Rachel, Just wanted to let you know that those cool rocks you saw are actually super amazing. They are a sedimentary rock strata, which is an awesome way to look at the story of geological time in the area. The reason that they look sideways is due to Japan's ever changing geological structure. A large earthquake or eruption (since you are very close to Mt Ontake an active volcano) put a lot of pressure under the rocks and shot then skyward. :D Beautiful! ....I like rocks.

[@vantilover8180]

Oh thanks for the information I learnt something new about rocks

[@chineseripoffofgod5210]

Rachel Kayen thanks for the insight. My city has a lot of those, and i never thought to take a close look. Thanks! Also, 69 likes. Nice.

[@runeseaks]

Every time I see a video like this, I realize how I would probably have to live in Japan for years just to be able to make it to everything I would like to visit/see/experience.

[@izzy1221]

The only thing cuter than those squirrels would be Rachel's face of pure happiness as she feeds them.

[@co1293]

Sign: no petting. Jun: the tail is so fluffy, i wanna touch it. "Pets squirrel" Naughty Jun. ;)

[@celinepalacio5741]

THERES VILLAGES ABOUT EVERYTHING IN JAPAN I SWEAR TO GOD

[@Demiurge13]

@carol: yea that's cause they kill and eat those...

[@MarcusAseth]

I bet there is a village of villages

[@misosouphere6074]

+Carolyn Well cheese louise! Calm down!

[@anothersettlementneedsyour1979]

Carolyn Why you so rude

[@Tamaki742]

Carolyn Well, you're not supposed to keep them confined.

[@tiastevens8262]

Japanese squirrels look like tiny weird long tailed groundhogs

[@trainzguy2472]

The squirrels near my house in America are really small and have a huge gigantic puffy tail.

[@angenibizi1235]

@Bip Nop true

[@julianpesantes3338]

Japan is so freaking beautiful!!!

[@anonymousgirl4205]

Haha love your prophile picture.

[@meloniejen5864]

Julian Pesantes your profile 😂 we need more people like u

[@kendalljennings3417]

I see you finally made it to THE DEEP FOREST.

[@sjhorton1184]

Kendall Jennings omg I thought the same thing. 😂

[@Mikeztarp]

This made me laugh so hard. Inside jokes! I actually used a picture of a squirrel in the forest in my Anki flashcard for 深い ("deep") because of that conversation they had.

[@vietlee4290]

There used to be a squirrel at my old house that i fed potato chips on occasion and in return he/she gave me metal objects like nails and screws on my windowsil. That squirrel did this for many years.

[@annewestra7802]

At 0:24 Jun sits perfectly to be pushed in the water, just a thought 😂

[@aussiecountry9320]

There are so many awesome animal places in Japan. And its kind of interesting to think that way back in history the view from the castle was probably all green and rolling hills. I bet that would have been a pretty view too.

[@bokey9346]

I love how excited Rachel gets

[@butterflymuse2707]

I love the look of pure unadulterated joy on Rachel's face feeding those squirrels. It's so cute XD!!

[@PirateGeekshades]

The little noises Jun made when trying to pet the squirrel was almost as cute as the squirrels themselves!

[@ashtree8868]

The squirrels there look different than the ones here. They have a more fluffy and brown look to it.

[@childofthefaeries1252]

they also look very different from the red ones we have in germany

[@chibi3575]

If you guys were a dramatic channel the title of the video would have been ATTACKED BY A SQUIRREL AND ALMOST DIED (not clickbait)

[@dankayur2910]

But if they were it wouldn't have been anywhere near this great mix of calming and cute, interspersed with moments of excitement.

[@XSemperIdem5]

Cynthia M23 or "Pulled in for the attack!" Ok but how cute was it when that one squirrel pulled her hand closer?

[@user-du4do1sv1q]

XSemperIdem5 m

[@LettersfromJapan]

No glove, no love!

[@theclawless1225]

Letters from Japan this made me laugh really hard

[@crywhit4619]

😂😂😂

[@pandaaz2350]

Awww those squirrels were so cute. I'm sure you had a blast! you should make a 7 day travel guide cause when i go to Japan I'd love your advice :D

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

My travel guide would be highly dependent upon how much you are okay walking, because tourist places here require IMMENSE AMOUNTS OF WALKING. I just took Heather around for about a week and we walked... I think it was 47 miles (75+ km). And that was just me, since I took breaks, since at times I was like Heather I canNOT WALK ANYMORE. She walked even more. It was a pretty eventful week but uh yeah I think guides are very dependent upon how much people are willing to walk!

[@Frapsity]

"Japan, land of 80 bajillion steps"

[@colleenmcdonnell4235]

I almost cried while watching the squirrel portion, squirrels are my favorite and that was so cute 😍

[@Aranur]

japan has weird squirrels, like they kind of look like beavers with bushy tails. but they're so cute

[@wayneessar7489]

Rachel's face at 3:30 is my smile at all the cuteness! So fun!

[@Tyranzor64]

I like how Rachel goes from professional and cool vlog narrator to "OHHHMYYGOOSSHTHEYRESOCUUUUUTTTEEEE" as soon as she sees anything cute and adorable and fluffy.

[@userpick5078]

Those are some strange looking cats.

[@tiina7143]

7:45 I relate to this squirrel, it's truly a magnificent creature.

[@solmae]

*Living in Canada* We have so much squirrels here. Japan must really love their Squirrels.

[@MonochromeRainbowz]

I'm actually kind of afraid of squirrels but they don't look scary here at all. They're so cute! 😍

[@MonochromeRainbowz]

Idk why, but looking at those two squirrels reminded me of that scene from The Sword in the Stone where Arthur turned into a squirrel and a girl squirrel fell in love with him.

[@hymm2325]

It's my favorite place and it's placed near my parents house. So,I'm really happy to see you guys there! I hope you two spend good time there.

[@TheDarkenbeauty]

I am always looking forward to you and Jun's videos, they always cheer me up, when I'm feeling down. So thank- you! Seeing the squirrels are so adorable!!! I see a fair few and rabbits near our house, but can never get that close to them as you did. Keep shinning bright you two!

[@Tastypieinyourmouth]

This is absolutely stunning! Not just the animals, the whole scenery

[@maryssa_with_a_why]

I think that it's so funny that there's a squirrel park in Japan! My whole university in California is basically a squirrel park lol. The squirrels here are waaaay too used to people and will come up begging for food. My friend even had her sandwich snatched from her when she wasn't looking! Very fun video to watch though, I love watching you two visit all the niche little places in Japan.

[@grayisdead]

Love you guys so much! Please keep up the vlogs, they are so relaxing ♡

[@lila4070]

I love sitting on my couch eating mochi watching you guys! It's just so fun to see ur amazing adventures!

[@moey1331]

-Me: Time to do some work. - *Sees Rachel and Jun upload* ...

[@LargeFriesNoSalt]

Those glasses are adorable lol

[@moonstonepearl21]

Gorgeous path to that castle. Gotta love how beautiful and relaxing those paths are to sites like that, even if they are tiring.

[@ltviperpilot3444]

Oh my gosh cutest video ever!! I love squirrels and this looks like the perfect place to go! They act so much like my gerbils did when they'd grab your hand and pull you closer when you had food for them! So adorable!

[@k98killer]

My sister had a pet squirrel named Dodger. They are mischievous and conniving little rodents, though they are definitely pretty cute.

[@lukesguywalker]

You guys always have the nicest editing and music!

[@marissahermancarr1386]

i just moved to fukui, japan after watching you guys for so long, and i can't wait for the opportunity to finally check out all of these beautiful spots!!

[@raevus8919]

So cute 💖 And that pond looked so relaxing

[@Serrenoa]

I love the pure joy on Rachel's face!

[@mistress.of.science]

The DEEP WOODS look different than I expected. ;) Delightful video!

[@Reyshy]

Rachel Faces when geeking out over cute fluffy animals is what I live For

[@MsSilentH]

ugh, just ANOTHER reason to add Japan to my bucket list! Cute animals and gorgeous views!

[@teresasimpson5143]

And now I know where the Japanese got the idea for all the cute Anima animals. Japan is filled with super cute critters!

[@hs1232]

i remember when jun used to say squirrels live in the "deep forests" in japan XD

[@WhatNow858]

My dear friends, Rachel and Jun! Thank you for your videos- I have to live vicariously through you until I can come to Japan myself!

[@reitou223]

Such a beautiful place. Great video.

[@TheJSNinja]

I missed you guys 😢😢😢😢 this video makes me happy 👍👍

[@ivorybrndn]

The weird things I see on the trending tab...I LOVE IT 😍

[@crustalting]

omg you guys always pick the sweetest adventure spots! im literally lying in my bed but i feel like im on holiday in japan! hope you guys and the kitties are well :)

[@jaspr1999]

I wish there was a way to thumbs up this video a thousand times! So very very cool!!! Thank you so much for sharing the cuteness of the squirrels and the awesome views! I can't wait to show this video to my wife! She's just going to get all giddy over it!!!

[@nataliac4957]

Jun is sooo nice, helping Rachel holding her bag while she do the recording 😂😂

[@_andrew_]

Hi guys :) my girlfriend and I love your videos! I hope Haku, Nagi, and Poki are doing well!

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

Thank you!! :D They're spoiled and happy as ever!

[@_andrew_]

Rachel & Jun's Adventures! That's great! I can't wait to get cats of my own one day that are hopefully as tame as Haku and Nagi!

[@f4erie_]

Andrew Tumang haha not poki? 😂

[@sofiacorrea367]

Yeah new upload! Luv the video, and those squirrels are so adourable! :3

[@Ben-gh8pz]

Finally a new video. So excited.

[@AncientAlumina]

I went there about 3ish years ago while I was on exchange in Japan! A friend of mine lived in Gifu (even though we were at the same university in Aichi), so he took me here for a day trip, and we must have gone the wrong time of year because I think we rain into maybe 2 other people while climbing up? It was empty! But having never seen a squirrel in real life before (because there are none in Australia) the village was amazing!

[@clarenicole9546]

Those squirrels look so different from the ones where I live omg

[@StudioLindsay]

Aww, this was so cute! I'll keep this place in mind for the next time I go to Japan!

[@pureaciddreamer]

You're back!! I missed you guys!!

[@leahparsley1560]

Wow that picture quality is amazing

[@leahparsley1560]

*video quality

[@scottkjebutelg1416]

There is another place that has baby kittens and there is like 15 of them in a room, just you and 15 other kittens with like ALOT of toys in a room... all together just you (and jun or Rachel) and a big bunch of kittens just sitting there.

[@ShankAMuffin]

Whenever you upload, I get a sense of gratification due to stepping into such a different life of another person. Keep up the great content, been here for a few years and it seems you guys keep out doing yourselves.

[@colonelk3870]

Nice warm day to vist. The squirrels where cute. Summer day heat. Great video.

[@litzo5957]

Now Japan only needs a park with unicorns

[@LSJ-qv3hr]

Ive missed u guys 💕💕💕

[@JiwoongandKatharineAdventures]

Omg, these little squrills have such good manners, the ones near my old uni just straight up stole food then ran away. Happy to see a new vid!

[@breh9243]

These videos fill me with joy!

[@patrickstar561]

MY GIRL GETTING ON TRENDING IM SO PROUD

[@sophiam6452]

lol I was like those are squirrels? American squirrels look a little different, took me off guard for a moment.

[@dankayur2910]

British red squirrels are also differently shaped but they're moderately rare after the american ones invaded. Such perfectly cute proportions if you can find them, though.

[@ellimac4973]

Hooray for another R&J videos!! I miss u guys!!

[@moonstonepearl21]

So friendly! Especially when you have food, which is a major motivator for most animals.

[@woofinu]

You can start a Groundhog Village. First one in the world.

[@move8115]

Man I wish to live in Japan.Are there many more attractions like this?

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

Fox Village. Bunny Island. Cat Island (x2--one in the north and one in the south). Deer Park. Wild Horse Peninsula. Monkey Park. Probably more. These are just the ones off the top of my head.

[@f4erie_]

Rachel & Jun's Adventures! BUNNY ISLAND?! You need to go there for me!!!!!

[@ic7846]

cloclo Sous le ciel abroad in japan went there, cuteness overload basicaly

[@thelegendaryegg7831]

Yuki - Chan Yes

[@Peorhum]

I think it is part of the religion isn't it? About animals having spirits and sort of worshiping or honouring the spirits by feeding animals like this?

[@stelleldir]

You guys never disappoint. Great video!

[@lija703]

Looks so fun!

[@Samb61313]

OH MY GOD!!!! MY FRIEND OMBLINE IS IN YOUR VIDEO. SHE TALKS ABOUT MEETING YOU GUYS AND HOW IT WAS SO AWESOME TO MEET YOU BOTH!!!!

[@shannonmcaleer5459]

Disappointed no comments about squirrels living in the ~deep forest~ were made lol

[@Gantorin]

Okay... your first Gifu video made me want to visit that place when I go to Japan... SQUIRRELS!!!! OMG!!! I am so making sure I spend time there. I was taken back when you turned and showed the high view. Until then I forgot you went up a mountain side... Breath taking!!! I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!! SO DAMN MUCH THAT I AM SO SHARING IT!

[@Mondos2001]

The music. The smile. 😀

[@sapphireotaku3399]

Jun's in seventh heaven. We all know how much he loves squirrels! :P

[@meow2thepaw]

Your smile was priceless

[@lylet100]

so nice to see our future leaders of the world enjoying the wonders of our world. THANK YOU

[@moonstonepearl21]

Beautiful place. I've never heard of a squirrel park before. It's cool something like this exists.

[@Sabrina-sc1db]

8:03 my spirit animal

[@jamesfry8983]

the squirrels are quick enough to catch a praying mantis cool

[@mercenary1987]

I have got to plan a vacation to Japan, all these places you guys go look fun. I love animal themed places.

[@Eyes_Unclouded]

Hi Rachel! Hi Jun! I hope everyone is doing well. The squirrels are so cute thank for sharing❤️

[@bumpnjump9641]

Question about Jun, is he a full time youtuber, or does he have another job? I thought he did cooking, but I've seen some comments on how he's not a chef

[@sophiac6070]

Y'all did it. You found the *deep woods*.

[@user-gx8dv9ve7u]

リスかわいいですね🐿お二人の動画を見てると幸せな気分になります😊

[@chauxster1791]

Has anyone ever told you guys that you remind them of the main characters from the anime Eden of the East? The girl is a redhead who meets a black haired boy, very fitting lol

[@thatbihandy420]

Now you can officially be called squirrel girl!!!( marvel fans will get this)

[@chickgonesquirrely]
