I used to live in Iwakuni back in 2014. I’m glad I had the chance to see this masterpiece.

[@timbrawdy2249]

I’m loving the music choices you’re using to help fill the voids. Really sets a vibe and you need to keep that up.

[@ceciliaogawa5807]

Hello Shinichi and Satoshi, the town is very beautiful. I feel I was transported there with the sights and sounds of the town. Your video is so clear and you caputure the beauty of the town. Thank you for a beautiful and relaxing video. Have a beautiful day and look forward to you next video. (I always enjoy virtually being there with you)

[@kattrablake7008]

The river is so pretty

[@deannaatkinson3004]

Loved hearing shakuhachi when you got to Iwakuni Castle. I used to play shakuhachi…years ago.

[@kunalchhetri4617]

Undoubtedly Japan is very beautiful and the Japanese as well😍😍

[@cherryblossom0426]

YES! I would LOVE to see a Japanese, then a worldwide, soft serve taste adventure, Shinichi!! 🍦🤩

[@Shinichisworld]

What an awesome idea!

[@PREPFORIT]

I like Bridges AND Natto 👍 That castle museum was really interesting.

[@katm5424]

I am saving this video to watch with my husband tonight 😀 I can’t wait! Thank you both for your amazing content and all the love that you put into it!❤️😀❤️

[@elektricki9258]

I not only like, but prefer these longer videos. Such beautiful places you visit!

[@97901433]

Wow. I like this place a lot. Thank you for showing us this amazing place

[@samanthajohnson3368]

Stunning architecture. The carpentry skills are amazing.

[@mistressdragonfly]

I was so hoping one day you would do Iwakuni!! I was blessed to live there for 2 years when I was younger and I miss it everyday! I have walked over that bridge so many times.

[@kamariahzaharin4744]

I really enjoyed this video, maybe because four different soft serve was featured? LOL No, seriously I love all your walking videos, long or short. I really do. This video was informative, beautiful, and so calming. Thank you!💖💖😁🍦🍦🍦🍦❣

[@astroboy3507]

Very interesting bridge I love it so different!!!!! 👍🏻 What!!!!!! Over 200 favoured icecreams!!!!!! 🍦 😮😍

[@meimeiparker]

Thank you very much Shinichi & Satoshi for bringing us to this beautiful place! Enjoyed walking with you both.💞

[@boonkien61]

I was there 4 years ago n Sakura was in full bloom. A very beautiful town.

[@somanybookstbr9716]

OMG Thank you two for taking us with you to this beautiful place! The village is so pleasant, clean and quiet. They have cared for it with love. I imagine it gets very busy when the cherry trees bloom. The bridge is amazing!

[@debracantrell1058]

Hey Shinichi and Satoshi good to see you y'all what a beautiful veiws the bridge 🌉 is awesome thanks for sharing this video take care stay safe and God bless to you y'all 🌻🌼🌸🏵️☺️🥰🤩😘😊☀️💐💘😍👍🤗❤️👌🌺💮

[@krissykriss328]

Great content Shinichi!!! Give Satoshi a hug for me !❤❤

[@casualyum]

Wow that wall of ice cream flavours and models is just something else! Would love to visit and try all the flavours! :D

[@katherineyanagihara2909]

Aloha Shinichi & Satoshi! Thank you, such a beautiful town & spectacular bridge! 🥰

[@rainerlovesjapan9468]

I’ve seen this bridge before on youtube. Really stunning!

[@J72e06]

Agree with you that this a really beautiful bridge, thanks for bringing this to us! Please keep up your videos, well done. Cheers to Shinichi n Satoshi.

[@nikkimatsuoka8003]

My dad was born in Iwakuni and some of his family still live there. Thank you, Shinichi, for taking us on this wonderful tour with you!

[@Scriptor13]

What a beautiful and exciting video! Kintaikyō is such an amazing piece of engineering and so harmonious with its gorgeous and serene surroundings. Iwakuni Castle had magnificent views and made me interested to learn more about how life was lived in a Japanese castle. And all the food was interesting and looked delicious. I was really drawn to the kawara soba, Iwakuni sushi, renkon korokke, and the soft serve ice cream, of course. I'm a sucker for soft serve! Thank you for taking us with you. ❤️❤️

[@angelamapa2529]

Wow, that IS a beautiful bridge

[@hollish196]

Natto ice cream!! EEECK!!!! Shinichi's choice seems much better. The lotus root seems quite interestsing.

[@areolaaubreya.6404]

Finally! I've been waiting for you guys to visit Iwakuni 😍

[@catherinebond7474]

Very quaint little town. I'd love to paint a watercolor of the bridge. I think I'd prefer ginger soft serve instead of natto. I think I might like the plum flowers even better than the cherry blossoms.

[@FungusUSMC]

I was actually stationed at Iwakuni 10 years ago, you guys may have been there the same time I was living there! Living in Iwakuni was the best 2 years of my life; something awesome about living in small-town Japan that I miss so much to this day. I wouldn't hesitate to move back again given the opportunity. Also, that soft serve ice cream place usually has lines that snake around the corner because of how popular it was, especially during Sakura season and Obon. Kind of strange to see no line at all!

[@ginas.6656]

How sweet you went there 10 yrs ago.

[@annejaques]

Loved this video, yes please keep making the long videos, so enjoyable. 😄👍

[@boonkien61]

A beautiful bridge, was there 4years ago n Sakura was in full bloom. So pretty.

[@ibz8455]

Really beautiful video. Thank you for sharing

[@peterjake9621]

Hi Guys, another great video, what an amazing bridge great views from the castle with beautiful surroundings and I would love to try the lotus root korokke . The soft serves looked delicious 🤤. After a stressful day at work this has lifted me up watching this. Arigato 👍😀🙏

[@amariluna]

Hello from Australia Shinichi and Satoshi! Thank you for another beautiful video. My daughter and I visited Hiroshima in 2016 when she was 15. We have both been back to Japan twice since then as we really loved it. I never knew about this amazing place and wished we could have visited. Maybe next time. I absolutely loved the names of all the different ice cream flavours!

[@dennistani1986]

Thanks guys for taking us to Yamaguchi prefecture. This prefecture is on my visit list. My great-grandfather emigrated from Yamaguchi to Hawaii in 1880. I think it would be interesting to see where my family came from. Thanks again guys!

[@missprettyonabudget]

It all looked so beautiful! Thank you so much for taking us on that walk with you!

[@bookiemeow173]

I loved this video so much! Thank you!

[@dw7312]

Yaay. You guys was in Iwakuni!

[@user-ey5pn6jk4d]

Thanks for Photo of beautiful Japan

[@qwert_yuiop7506]

i love bridges too! iwakuni is my family's ancestral home. was lucky enough to visit there a few yrs ago. iirc the kintai bridge was destroyed in a typhoon around 1950 but faithfully rebuilt. glad you got to see it again! 🙂

[@dreamdog7346]

I Love the longer Videos. 🙏🏼 This bridge is verry beautiful and I wish I coud see it real. But anyway. I'm Happy to see you and Satoshi save and happy 🥰🌺🙏🏼

[@tomithot261]

Love walking with you ... the bridge was amazing. Keep taking us with you, I am seeing parts of Japan I will never get to.

[@punklejunk]

Great to see you up and about, Shinichi. Both of you please stay healthy and happy, we love your beautiful videos

[@jujubi1050]

I like all your videos but your longer ones really help me when I am at the gym and huffing and puffing on the treadmill! You make my workouts a lot easier because I dream of being more fit when I go to Japan AND I get to watch and decide all the yummy food I'll be eating when I get there. 😋😊😋

[@olivousretro1004]

Hope you guys are catching the last of the cherry blossoms 🌸 🌸🌸

[@rosannashe6313]

I love your longer videos!

[@clintoncoronel474]

All the food you eat looks wonderful! Tina

[@ashrjim6876]

I’ve been watching for a couple years now and I was so excited to see Iwakuni in a video! There are so many amazing places, but I feel like you need to see some countryside of Japan too to really experience Japan. Iwakuni is a great place to do that. I may be a little biased living there, but you mentioned so many things I enjoy. Whenever I want to walk around in nature I go to the Kintai area and spend a couple hours there with my kids. The saukura trees get all the attention as they are so beautiful, but ume blossoms are exciting because it means winter is ending.

[@mauison]

I really enjoyed this video, as it had a bit of everything. A cool bridge, a museum, a ropeway trip, dining, and soft serve twice! I'm glad you did this video instead of walking around Hiroshima, as I enjoy this type of video more than walking around a big city. Although I'll still watch those too!

[@JustBeing_JuJu]

I use to live in Iwakuni. I miss it so much!!

[@taetaeuk7744]

It's nice to see such beautiful places after the pandemic emptied so many towns and cities. Keep going guys! 💜💜

[@deehache4387]

Hi guys! I'm really enjoying your longer videos. It's also nice to see you and Satoshi doing these together. My husband and I follow a variety of Japanese food / travel vloggers, but you two have just about perfected the format. We'll look forward to the next one!

[@notjakefromstatefarm6969]

Hey guys. Thanks for this video. I do plan on visiting Japan again once everything is over. In the mean time, keep taking us to other great places to see and visit.

[@hhui1130]

Thank you for showing us this place, Shinichi! Almost wanted to visit this place when I was in Hiroshima 2 years ago! Watched a few videos of people introducing this place but only you brought us so in depth! Thank you again!

[@yeevita]

Beautiful place. Agree that the bridge looks amazing, especially from underneath.

[@rickdarvin3690]

That bridge is so majestic. Sinichi you show my two favorite things. Food and site seeing. I love the castles and history.

[@hungryfortheroad]

Lived in Iwakuni for 3 years. Always think about it

[@TheHawaiianc]

Heh I like longer video it more relaxing to watch because I can absorb everything in.. and it feel we are actually spending real time with you enjoying experiencing the place with you..

[@susansprouse1023]

A beautiful and fun video.

[@TiffanyDArtist]

Thank you for sharing so many beautiful and precious places with us!

[@The5Ronin]

You didn't stop at the White Snakes? Kintaikyo is a beautiful place without the usual crowd. One of my favorites in Yamaguchi.

[@indomk]

So beautiful.

[@pixelchic9449]

Reminded me a little of the Sanxiantai Dragon Bridge in Taitung, Taiwan! Looks like it.

[@blanchasaurus]

seriously awesome bridge!

[@saraatppkdotpt8140]

Loved watching this video😊

[@charliefox8450]

I do enjoy the longer videos like this one. I hope to visit Japan one day & your location videos really help! Thank you!

[@khaz661letsplaysmore5]

It is a gorgeous bridge 😁

[@pierogiesAndKielbasa]

Satoshi if you ever need a natto pal just ring me up. I will eat anything natto related! Lotus root chips sound amazing. And the korokke looked amazing! Lotus root is one of my favorite veggies. Also, what a neat view! Great video!

[@fawnmarie2679]

LOVE this!!! So beautiful !!!!!!! Has given me some great ideas for my paintings. Thank you both soooo much for what you do!!!! Much love

[@ninaignacio9267]

What a beautiful place I'll will visit it,thanks guys 😍

[@momonakokeshi6325]

Thank you taking to Yamaguchi. My grandparents were from different places in Yamaguchi. It's very beautiful place. Iwakuni Castle is beautiful too. It might longer to reach there. The food looked delicious. Good choice, Satoshi-san. I never went to Yamaguchi but it's on my bucket list

[@anamei9]

I was there on Friday for hanami 🌸 There were soooooooo many people! I had the blueberry and natsumikan ice cream...not bad, but natto was better imo.

[@mimishiroma2410]

Wow…..that was such an enjoyable tour of the town and the beautiful bridge! Isn’t there also a military base in Iwakuni? I love visiting Japan and can’t wait to go back once it opens up to tourists again! Thank you for virtually taking me back…..your videos make me feel like I’m actually there and I learn so much. Keep on doing what you do, Shinichi and Satoshi! Mahalo and Aloha from Hawaii🌺🤙🏻

[@garytheosophilus]

Yes, a Marine Corps Air Station (it might be a joint base now?) near the Iwakuni train station. How many would know what’s shared by Halawa, Iwakuni, and Kaneohe?

[@mimishiroma2410]

@@garytheosophilus Thanks for the reply, Gary! I knew there was a military base there since I, at one time, considered taking a job overseas in Japan. Yes, that’s so cool that there’s a connection between Iwakuni, Halawa, and Kaneohe in Hawaii! 🌺🌸

[@louisetregomorgan4907]

This place is a gem , Kintaikyo bridge is one of the world's most amazing bridges due to the architectural wooden structure gorgeous . This place must be a magnet for tourists, with it stunning views , and historic Castle with plenty to do eat and see is so breath taking. You must return again in the near future Shinichi and Satoshi when you have time . There's alot of🍦🍦🍦 soft serve ✨️ to try . Thanks for the wonderful experience . 💛💛💛👍

[@christianhansen3292]

Beautifu bridge!

[@brianhollenbeck8633]

I love exploring castle's. 😇👑🌏🌍🌎💚

[@VerhoevenSimon]

What an interesting bridge! Not sure if it beats the great Seito bridge, but it's certainly gorgeous.

[@garydell2023]

This was interesting. Thank you.

[@gwynnmccallan8856]

What a beautiful area. Thank you for sharing.

[@paniodradek2900]

WOW -- Kintaikyo is really, really beautiful, as well as the surrounding landscape. I immediately went searching online to learn more about its construction and was fascinated by the history behind it. Thank you once again for showing us the lesser known marvels of your amazing county!

[@rv2935]

Love You guys!!!!! Kisses from México

[@samirose1778]

I also love trying strange ice cream flavours when I find them 😂

[@kathrynsargent5769]

Loved this video, guys! The town is so beautiful, and the food so interesting!

[@revagreen2303]

Great video! 🙏🙏💕💕

[@exxon5430]

Eat!!!! Yeah !!! 😃

[@ashleeyxc]

I would love to try natto ice cream, sounds really interesting! My other favorite context creator in Japan is based in Iwakuni, and it’s cool to see the town from both a local and tourist perspective.

[@anamei9]

The natto ice cream is surprisingly good. I do not, however, recommend the habanero...unless you enjoy pain 😂

[@johnnishio4435]

Thank you Shinichi and Satoshi for taking us on this adventure to the Kintaikyo Bridge. When I visited relatives in Japan back in 2006, I had a choice of visiting Miyajima Island or the Kintaikyo Bridge, as we only had one day to sightsee. We chose Miyajima Island, a decision I never regretted and I have been back to Miyajima two more times since then. I had always wondered about the Kintaikyo Bridge and thanks to your visit, I now know what I have been missing. On my next visit after the Pandemic is over, I will definitely visit the Kintaikyo Bridge and the castle. I want to wander the town, cross the bridge, see the castle, have soft-serve ice cream and feast on the local foods. Can't wait to go back to Nihon. Gokurosama deshita!

[@otiskitchen2194]

Buuuut chinichi snakes are cuuuttteeee 🥺 i would have loved to see it ✨ i own a snake myself soo i love Japanese snake attractions when i am there Like the snake cafe to cuddle them 😍 i hope i can go back to Japan soon i miss it 😔 it's my goal to live to Japan in the future 🙏✨

[@Chris-gc1hw]

When I was stationed in Iwakuni while serving in the Marines -- 1998 ?? Marines called that bridge "KeenTai" -- Not sure. We loved that place. We tried to be humble when there but there was always that one Marine with us that made us look rude. If that was or is your experience, I am sorry. The Blossom Festival was absolutely beautiful! The バスルームライン lines were very long! |By the way, we would actually swim there just after the falls. The Japanese either thought we were nuts or rude. Not sure.??

[@BelloBudo007]

I will go there on my way to Kyushu.

[@deanzaZZR]

Yang Guifei (soft cream) is a famous Chinese beauty from 7th century Tang dynasty. Yes, she was so beautiful you can even eat an ice cream in the 21st century in Japan named after her. 😮

[@AtlantisAng]

My order would be pointing to a random row without natto ""this row please." xD xD

[@60frederick]

Wonderful! Thank you for sharing your Video with us! PS: isn't it in Yamaguchi Prefecture? In the description is written Iwakuni Prefecture..

[@Pasneahbruhilda17]

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@Dailydosewithlily]

no natto ice cream :-)

[@toanly1337]

you're supposed to eat the cone with the ice cream once u get the ice cream down even with the cone level...did u guys not have a childhood? i'm joking lol that's how i always eat it. so many flavors though wow

[@yanailustre1801]

Shinichi san your having allergy "kapunsho" or pollen allergy ... i think ?
