No matter how hard life becomes, i watch rion san to keep the GAO inside my heart and to have the desire to KEEP ON WALKING!!!

[@maxmorris4562]

Nice video of Kawagoe I've seen this place before on KZbin videos and looks very nice and hidden from tourists

[@reinoezra]

this probably the first time I see Rion without the bangs 👍

[@AixianL]

Gatsby gel or spray is good to style and hold hair so will not get messy when wind blows.

[@RionIshida]

Using the Gatsby spray 😉👍

[@dariamancini963]

Plum, almond and cherry are all related. I’m happy to see any of them.

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

We took a day trip here in early 2023 when borders reopened… we went to a shop where you can bake your own senbei

[@downrivermoviecompany]

I like the lights in the last several minutes of the video. The Japanese people have a knack for utilizing lights in a nice way. 😊

[@foekje25]

Really helpful video's for travelers. Especially the Japanese words lessons, price notifications and the temperature. These small but important things makes your video's better than others.

[@ktrp_tak]

Hope you make more videos in the outer suburbs of Tokyo and the vicinity. Always enjoy your new videos!

[@snowychan823]

I went here last year! Such an amazing place and we loved all the sweet potato snacks (including Saimo or sweet potato soda)! ❤🍠🍠🍠

[@Gazumi-inOZ]

Really enjoyed our Kawagoe visit. They had non-electric city bikes @$2/30mins that allowed us to cover the whole place efficiently. Got a Bell Tower Cookie next to the tower "interesting" 😊 A very do-able and comfortable day trip from Tokyo not to be missed. Notably, a pleasant absence of caucasian gaigin (like us) 🤣 on the streets on your walk 🧐 Great walk Rion as usual 👍 "Let's be learning together, and let's keep walking" ☝️👑

[@sherylramos2041]

Kawagoe was part of our tour last November. It was the last place that our group visited after we went to Oishi Park and Oshino Hokkai. Kawagoe was a lovely place. My favorite parts were the Starbucks with the Edo-style shop and the Miffy Shop and Bakery.

[@janelaluan]

Wanted to go to Kawagoe but didn’t get to so thank you for sharing!! The new hairstyle looks good!

[@RionIshida]

😆👍

[@nelstalgic7878]

behind the Hikawa Shrine, there is a nice small bridge/river.. it’s a nice area for Sakura viewing

[@zeke9684]

Tnx alot rion having ur shoot at Ikebukuro station reminds my mother brain anuerism survivor 2013,she had her operation at public hospital closed tothat station,keepsafe ngodblessu rion

[@jerra_ng]

Alot of local and tourist when i went last month. Took a bus to Hikawa Shrine and slowly walk back from there. Kawagoe is worth a visit, but just once will do.

[@RionIshida]

True!

[@Sei_Kato]

Fico has my favorite pizza and pasta dishes in Kawagoe!

[@yukiagu]

Rion! Thank you for this video! Good to know that Kawagoe is only like a 30 minute train ride from Ikebukuro! Didn't plan on going there but if I have time... I might! Arigatoo ❤❤❤

[@ksenijacizek5901]

I remember your earlier video from Kawagoe 3 years ago. There was less people and traffic because of pandemic. The atmosphere of the old tradional part, little Edo, has not changed. It is charming indeed, especially the wooden architecture as a whole. The shrines are also interesting and unique, especially the path with feet challenge. There is also a money washing spot closer from Tokyo than Kanagawa. It is obviously popular weekend destination for the locals to enjoy the special food. Anyhow nice place to visit if the wearher is fine. By the way your new hairstyle fits you perfectly, as well. Longer hair is suitable for still colder days, too. I like both ume and sakura and it is hard to distinguish from afar. The warmer days are to follow with more and more blooming trees. Let's enjoy the spring!

[@RionIshida]

😆🌸👍

[@JY-ft6ui]

Thanks for making this video. Will try to visit this place during my next visit to Japan. Looking forward to your next video.

[@zennoodle]

Love the hair Rion! Don't cut it! Thanks so much for an informative video! Till next time! Gao!

[@pamelagordon869]

Looking fantastic as always Rion ❤❤❤

[@RionIshida]

Arigatooo, Let's keep walking😆🦁

[@glass_parton]

I'll be in Tokyo in less than a week, and Kawagoe is already on my list! I'll be travelling solo, so I can go wherever I feel like. It will be my first time in Japan and I'm very excited! Thanks for all these videos, they're very nice and I like your demeanor.

[@XLessThanZ]

What a beautiful day, Rion. Sunny, yet nice and cool. My kind of weather when I travel. The foot therapy sidewalk was really interesting😂

[@tns-rox]

Arigatougozaimasu, Rion, for this very enjoyable walking tour of Kawagoe. I hope to be able to visit there one day. The Global Ring blue lights were beautiful. Your new hairstyle: 👍

[@RionIshida]

😆👍

[@johnwendland7908]

I'm going to Kawagoe in March for family reasons. It has been awhile since I was there.

[@alexander-yn7gk]

I appreciate seeing you go to more places outside of Tokyo, Rion. I always look forward to watching your videos. Maybe in the future you can visit the castle town Himeji or Chiba city. Keep up the good work!

[@purpleglasses731]

Haven't heard of this area before prior to this video. Thanks for the update. I really enjoyed the walk! The most interesting to me is the sweet potato vending machine. Looks so yummy! Probably would buy and eat four of them 😂 Will add this to places to visit on my Tokyo trip! PS- I really like this long hairstyle. It suits you so well. Fits the winter vibes. Also low key jealous how fast your hair grows 🤣

[@RionIshida]

Arigatoooo🤣👍

[@christycpark]

Love Kawagoe, went there before the pandemic and love it so much! Tks Rion for this video, enjoyed it very much! Hv a great week!

[@RionIshida]

Beautiful Place😊🌸

[@catderune]

Hi Rion Thank you for another Vlog and a really interesting one too !!!!. But would you also make a Vlog someday in the future maybe, where you will visit some amazing cities of Gunma Prefecture maybe ?? i love the people and the atmosphere there and i would love to see if you could making a Vlog of it too. It is no must it`s just a request so you don`t need to do it. 🥰😊

[@ramenpharmacist]

beautiful!

[@Traveljet14]

Wow it’s really crowded on a Saturday. We were planning to include Kawagoe on a weekend but after looking at the crowds, we are having 2nd thoughts. That was just the local crowds - imagine if more tourists started to visit the place. It was nevertheless an interesting overview of your visit. Thank you.

[@twitteringmachine]

Always like the videos you make👍

[@jonbarta673]

Great video! GAOOOO! 🦁

[@RionIshida]

[@Rainbowgem22]

Thanks for another fun video, Rion! The desserts look meccha oishii! 😁 I think your hair looks nice either way so do what you want with it. 😊👍 That was a nice tree anyway! 😆🌳🌸 The shrine was beautiful and so were the lights at the end! ✨

[@paripitiffany]

To be honest, as a longtime viewer (almost three years), I wasn’t sure I’d enjoy this video cuz I didn’t think much had changed since your first one about Kawagoe (Ep. 306), which I absolutely loved with the furin festival in the summer. 🎐 Phew, glad I was wrong. This video didn’t disappoint at all. Sure, the main attractions are pretty much the same, but I delighted in seeing the many small changes, from new walking paths, new snacks, new stores, and new tidbits about yourself (I was wondering what color was your randoseru 🤓). Plus, it definitely is different seeing the town post-pandemic and in a different season. Thank you for another adventure in Japan! ✨ P.S. Not sure about this “Trunks” style. 🤔 It might “grow” on me. Maybe you can show us how the “Goku” one looked on you. 😆

[@RionIshida]

Same place, but always changes especially in a big city, I always enjoy the small changes and hope I can share more with viewers too. and Trunks,,, LOL🤣👍

[@ZainBeautifulSoul]

Beautiful place, thanks Rion! Supposed to go Japan in 2020 but then Covid hit! Trip was cancelled, no refund! Now I am planning again to go in November for Autumn season. Planning for Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. Can’t wait for your Osaka and Kyoto videos. 🥰💜

[@BREAKERTMW]

Rion, could you have your haircut as part of your next video? Im sure many of your fans would be interested!

[@sarahs.1131]

I died a little inside when you didn’t show us the cross section of the filled strawberry 😭💔

HAIRSTYLE EPIC !!!

[@silver10241]

There is a bus directly from Kawagoe station to the Edo street, most of the buses from the station will stop right in the middle of the street. So you don’t really have to walk.

[@dave4reel188]

Only 8 days until my first trip to Tokyo. I'll be looking for you. 🦁 GAOOOO!

[@RionIshida]

🦁🦁🦁

[@ShiroiKarasu634]

When i went to kawagoe in 2018 there was a Building where you could do sake tasting though vending machine like the one in Niigata station. I wonder if its still there. Edit: I think i found it on the internet "koedo kurari" maybe for your next Video Edit number 2: lol you went there. I was too fast with my comment 😂 but nice. Its the best place in kawagoe haha🍶 but i believe it got more expensive and less nihonsu. I think we got 100 yen for one coin

[@TheGlennaldwinongleo]

what time did you go to kawagoe? we were there last saturday

[@debbiebungubung5062]

I prefer the Regular hairstyle! 😁

You Try Indian food

[@sailee2346]

Hate to tell you this. When you have another culture that comes into yours it will no longer be the Japan you know were people are polite and follow your cultural rules. It will be alot of bad actors that will make Japan less wholesome.

[@dmvlog8843]

That’s why I go every year and enjoy it before the change
