極寒の中、素敵な兼六園動画をありがとうございます🙏大阪から結構遠い事に驚きました🚈💨車窓からの雪景色が本当に素敵でした☃️（まぁRionさん途中寝落ちしたけど…ね😂）次回作も楽しみです‼️体調気をつけて、ゆっくり休んで下さい‼️

[@24marcg24]

I noticed rion left his cell phone on the ticket counter and I thought for sure it was going to be an issue but obviously I was wrong! Phew! Crisis averted! Thanks for another fun video I always look forward to them! Keep up the good work my friend!

[@hafizabdulrahim7201]

Glad that you managed to catch the train at the start! That was a close one

Loved Kanazawa when we visited!

[@bentea1229]

Thanks for your videos. I am doing research to visit Japan and this really helps.

[@carlaraejepsens9060]

Please also do a Q&A episode Rion!!! Arigatoooo!!! Gaoooo!!! ☺☺☺

[@akolangito6945]

Yessss! This is i want to tell you for so long why not go on the province/countryside

[@22s22a]

I literally just got back from there..wow.. that snow was crazy and beautiful

[@mvccarlos]

The curry rice looks yum and it looks happy to see you😁

[@cherriemay528]

Rion with no sense of timing is so me in some way😂

[@pas7680]

Kanazawa's lovely in the spring, looked a bit too cold in winter.

[@sallyannestooke6063]

Oh Rion, what a wonderful place, りっぱ です. I really want to visit now. Enjoy your stay.💕😊💕

[@pixiemixie267]

Omg the snow was so pretty! Thanks for sharing Rion! Have a great day 😊

[@comontoshi]

I liked the trashy inoishi 👍👍 Thanks for the tour.

[@lin90210]

Fun! So nice to see somewhere besides Tokyo in a Japan travel vlog

[@nolisarmiento1719]

Kanazawa...still my favorite city in Japan

[@residentspirit6023]

For the Osaka-Kanazawa-Tokyo area by rail, there is an alternative JR pass you can use, it is called the Hokuriku Arch Pass, and the Thunderbird and Hokuriku Shinkansen are included.. It’s cheaper than the Japan-wide JR Pass, ¥25,000 for One week unlimited pass, and you can see lots of places off the beaten path. I did this trip in August 2019 starting in Tokyo. Itoigawa, Kanazawa, Takaoka, Toyama, and Karuizawa with the major city centres on either end of course! Noto Peninsula, Amaharashi and Kurobe Gorge are also along this northern route and worth a proper explore on the smaller local JR lines. Just one week to explore this section of the northern coast is not enough!

[@terrencelee6138]

Nice video!! Bringing me back all my great memories of Kanazawa and of cause go go curry!! My wife loved their curry udon. Hope you will also cover 香林坊 in part 2 😁

[@Grafschafter22]

I love Japans countryside. TY for sharing

[@bb502cid]

Kanazawa Station looks amazing!!

[@muybolero3575]

Hey, Rion! Nice video! May I ask what camera holder are you using that I saw in your hotel window? I’m searching to get one for myself. Arigatou

[@wardhaninur7824]

The train in your country is much much better than in my country 👍👍👍

[@mojojowan]

Thank you for bringing us and for introducing one of the "hidden gems" in Japan. I heard the place name before but I have a zero knowledge on what I'm going to see there 😅 I can't wait for the part 2 of this trip and for your upcoming trips as well.😃 Also, thank you for always spoiling us with the time lapse clips at the end of your videos. This time, you captured a lovely sunset time lapse and I'm still in awe ♥Take care always and keep up the good work! God bless you always! 😄

[@RionIshida]

🦁🎉👍

[@jameslawrence9865]

My wife and I truly enjoyed Kanazawa. We tried to book the same hotel where he did stay, but ended at the Square Hotel. It was really amazing. We toured the castle grounds and the gardens. I went by myself to the Nomura Samurai house. Everything was very close and we both enjoyed ourselves. I hope you can go soon.

[@hujanair2]

Omg gorilla curry!!!!!!!! My favorite curry chain. Thank you for sharing this rion. I enjoy your food adventures, making me miss japan more 😭

[@tzteezee]

So happy to see you travel to this beautiful Kanazawa! And the time lapse video at the end is awesome! Can't wait to watch the next one!

[@gracemagnifico3776]

I miss your live Rion. GAOO!!! Be safe always my dear. Be happy always and keep on walking. 🚶

[@paulkim0710]

Thanks to you, who always smiles and travels, even though I can't go now, I feel like I'm traveling to Japan, which I always miss. Thank you.

[@tooney3935]

Can you do a livestream inside the park? Love Japanese gardens.

[@lizzyo4204]

Such a peaceful walk ..I enjoyed it so much. Thank you so much for uploading this video. As always looking forward for your next video 🙂. Stay safe .

[@kl2999]

I missed Japan, can't wait to travel again.

[@flordelizacabading6320]

Hello Rion, When you are missing someone badly And suddenly you see the video footage. I hope your doing fine Rion, I like family, anyway I like the livestream footage view's☺😊😀

[@osaka_ent]

I feel like I'm traveling with you 🤩 Gaoo~~~🦁

[@robertdailey7248]

When I lived in Japan, I visited Notou-hantou out of curiosity. It was like going back in time 50 years. People there were great. I drank too much at a bar one night, and the police drove me back to my minshuku.

[@richl.1408]

Loved the video! You are the best!

[@RionIshida]

Arigatooooooo😆👍

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

Great seeing you travel.. we too started travelling again… our last vacation was in Feb 2020 in Sapporo ..it’s been almost 2 years… hope Japan will open up again by end 2022

[@RionIshida]

Nice, hope I can travel to Hokkaido in the future too!!

[@LuqSkywkr]

It is not by chance that rain stops and the sun shines when Mr Rion Ishida shows himself outside. 😎👍

[@treasurechest1993]

The gardens are very beautiful in April with the sakura and plums flowering . The best food in Kanazawa is Platt Home. A hidden gem. One of my favourite cities.

[@happyhuang9541]

This artistic wild boar from Osaka Station is awesome 🎨🤩👍. Rion is so cute, watching you get on the train 🚞, Shinkansen 🚄 and bus 🚌 at the last minute several times, let us all follow you in a hurry 😣😅😂🤣. So good Rion's AB Hotel is close to Kanazawa Station👍. Kenrokuen Park is the best place in Sanpo, can enjoy the beautiful scenery around and can walk to the beautiful Castle on the opposite side🏯😍. Go Go Curry 😋🍺! Timelapse from hotel was beautiful scenery 🏙🌃🌆🌇 !

[@tanakacanuck2343]

Those classic trains are so awesome. The front of the Thunderbird is so unique. I am looking forward to your streetfood adventure! The train station’s architecture is very cool.

[@RionIshida]

True, it’s unique!!

[@vhyleung]

It's unfortunate that the pandemic is going on longer than we all expected, but once again, so grateful to be able to experience Japan through your travels Rion. Arigatou!!! 🙏🙏

[@shuri1605]

Rion you made me miss Japan so much...we are wanting to go back from last trip 2019 b4 covid struck...love from new zealand🇳🇿❤️

[@paulasmith4561]

I spend about 5 days in kanawaza 4 years ago I really loved how easy it was to get around and the castle and it’s gardens were beautiful, they opened it at night and did a light show which was excellent. Love to go back one day

[@junnegrajales4706]

That timelapse is beautiful :) and the "Welcome" fountain was so cool!

[@zanefraser5560]

Visited Kanazawa in 2017. Beautiful KenRoeken gardens and castle. Thunderbird trip to Kyoto passed through beautiful countryside. Hoping to return soon

[@Ock_Small]

ありがとう for showing us Kenrokuen Rion san! It's so beautiful 😁 can't wait to see where else you go!

[@hillerychan9483]

Every time he says loving it, it reminds me of McDonald’s “I’m loving it” 🤣

[@papabenny0]

It's Kanazawa (you keep saying Kanagawa) 😂 btw been there twice and I loved it.

[@danf.medina825]

The Japanese trains and tourists spot are amazing I hope I go to Japan again. keep creating videos 🤗😊

[@misskirimi6866]

Arigato for giving us a tour Rion San! Can’t wait for more of your travel videos in the future 😌

[@joeychan6300]

Thanks for sharing the positivity of Japan travels despite the ongoing situation, Rion. We all want to see more travel content. Keep it up!

[@giovannawidjaja5328]

That timelapse at the end is amazing! Thanks for another great video Rion!

Wow nice place to be, hope we go there next time😊keep safe guys

[@predator2347]

So nice to see Kanazawa in winter. It is nearly 3 years ago I have visit Kanazawa. I really miss the time travelling.

[@susanhiggins7428]

Cool video you always make me hungry when you eat the food always looks so yummy .

[@moolah1239]

Thanks for sharing a piece of your time rion, i've enjoyed all of your videos. Im happy seeing that you're enjoying your life. Makes me feel inspired to go do some travelling. Thanks again for sharing cheers

[@harryfreeman07]

Wow such a peaceful park and love the snow on the ground. Always love your time lapses, looking forward to part 2! 😁

[@babygalacy]

I watch your travel video on weekend, feels like reward myself after working for 5,6 days.

[@AmbientWalking]

What a journey! Love it! Incredible zest and full of life! Thanks a lot! : )

[@janapokorna3142]

Seems like a fun journey! I am looking forward to more videos from Kanazawa! And the street food and everything. Thank you again for the great video. 😊

[@tns-rox]

Loved the park in Kanazawa, Rion. Arigatougozaimashita for introducing me to this beautiful city. I want to visit there one day. 👍

[@RionIshida]

Doitashimashite! Kenrokuen really beautiful place😆

[@worldcomicsreview354]

Kanazawa punches well above it's weight, tourism wise. As well as the park there's the grounds of a castle (part of it has been rebuilt in modern times, but using traditional methods. Unlike, say, Osaka castle, which has lifts in it!), a reconstructed boat house next to another beautiful garden, an art gallery with a famous "fake swimming pool" (not always open, unfortunately) and three preserved entertainment districts that survived wartime fireboming. There's also the "Ninja temple", which is not actually related to ninja. It's essentially a second castle, disguised as a temple, and is also the original structure. And for more specific interests there's the phonograph museum, with loads of old clockwork gramophones, including some Victrola Credenzas, which were some of the most expensive home entertainment equipment of their day.

[@tns-rox]

@@worldcomicsreview354 Thanks for the city descriptions! They're much appreciated. Makes me want to visit there even more.

[@ksenijacizek5901]

Hi, Rion, congratulatios for catching the train for Kanazawa. It seems that you have trained it to perfection. Anyhow, thanks for your endeavor to tavel even under current circumstances, although fortunatdly only few passenger on train. I was impressed by an original station design as well as lovely and peaceful park. By the way this video was interesting as always because whatever you do just cannot be boring. I am eager to watch the next one. Keep being yourself, stay safe and healthy! Kind regards from Zagreb, Croatia.

[@pennyblood9994]

Loved this video it was beautiful 💓🙏 and love you !! You are so cheerful and happy , nice to watch 😄 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧♥️

[@ClubMonchhichi]

I knew the bamboo structures were for a gardening purpose, but didn't know why....thank you for telling us it is for snow :)

[@etherdog]

Cool time lapse at the end, Rion! I hope you don't get sucked in to have any gold on your food when you are there because it has no flavor--it is only for show. Kanazawa is like a little sister to Kyoto in its old town area, but without as many tourists. It would be interesting to hear your comparison.

[@chunkytanker7365]

Brilliant video as always and the food food looked amazing

[@melaranas5243]

I enjoy watching your food and travel vlogs. New subbie here from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦

[@kaycem]

according to wikipedia, "spork" (the word, not the utensil) was first coined by just some random guy: "In 1951, Hyde W. Ballard of Westtown, Pennsylvania filed an application with the United States Patent Office ... to register 'Spork' as a trademark for a combination spoon and fork made of stainless steel."

[@jessicaarttans4415]

I studied in Kanazawa for two months and it's such a lovely place to live. I really enjoyed my time there. It's a small town but has everything in it, and people there are so friendly and kind. Thank you for sharing this experience with me! I can't wait to visit Kanazawa again :)

[@reach2prasanna]

You're so lucky to have spent time there. I wish to visit Japan soon.

[@readysetsleep]

That's so cool you rode the Thunderbird I passed the Thuderbird on the Shinkansen from Osaka to Tsuruga. I went to Obama too which was a really fun city to visit. Glad you are exploring the West Coast of Japan. You need to explore more places that foreign tourist don't go too often.

[@clozzian1272]

Gosh!! I miss this place so much!!! it is the part of my first time visit in Japan when i was doing my robotics research here!!>< Thanks Rion for bringing me back all the memories.

[@HenryFL1]

Hotel room for under $40 us ?? GREAT DEAL ! Rion sure knows how to pinch his pennies to save us money too ! This is a video we put up there with some of your best ones !

[@jamgomez4438]

Hi rion nice room hotel , and the view is beautiful good job rion to fine that hotel , take care 💕💕💕

Kenrokuen Gardens and Kanazawa Castle are also free to enter in the morning before visitor hours start, which is 7am! Hopefully this is useful for someone

[@cindycindy3067]

Thanks rion, it's makes me remember my trip to kanazawa because i really want to see the station gate and go to the 21st museum 😂 kanazawa is a beautiful city and hopefully i can go back there!

[@okanoshi941]

Hopefully you were able to visit the famous Geisha District Higashi Chaya also known as Kanazawa "Old Town". It's beautiful, especially in the evening.

[@TF2OG]

It was worth the 5 minutes of seeing the park with snow

[@brunoandre3675]

Thanks you for thé video

I had ayataka tea from Narita airport's vending machine two weeks ago. So good! ^___^

Thanks

[@samuraichu_gg]

Hello! I love your videos! Bring me so many memories. I already have been in Kanagawa and it was one of my favorite places to visit. The park is incredible and the Castle is so majestic it make me take so many good photos. Thanks for this videos Rion. Greetings from Chile. PD: Maybe is a good idea that you can put the kanji/hiragana/katakana of the things you teach, like for example with the Yukizuri, so we can learn reading and pronunciations.
