Trip to Tsumago-Juku and Magome-Juku 〜妻籠宿＆馬籠宿〜 Japan Vlog | easy Japanese home cooking recipe

[@phillipleboa5251]

BEAUTIFUL & CLEAN. One of the reasons I would not mind staying in Japan. People seems to show a lot of respect to one another and nature. xoxxo

[@taijiskitchen]

yes, RESPECT is one of the most important virtue in Japanese culture.

[@milagrosabrendavillamor9705]

True, me too , that is why I love Japan 😍💖 and I wish to come back again there. By the way, I'm from Philippines

[@hpoornimarao]

Japan is 1 of the most beautiful country in the world. Had the good fortune to go there in 2019. Planning a revisit in mar 2023. To re experience cherry blossom. Love the Japanese food.

[@taijiskitchen]

I agree, and also one of the most well preserved country from the old traditions and architecture. wow, very nice! have fun!!

[@bvillebikelady3651]

Wow, what a beautiful walking trail! I have to admit, I did not know there were bears in Japan, but I am glad to hear they're somewhat timid. I also enjoyed learning the concept of male and female waterfalls. Thank you for showing us these, Taiji.

[@mofornr8170]

How fun, i Booked one night in narai-juku, one in tsumago and one in magome for the end of the month (my uncle lives in karuizawa). I'm so happy your country finally opened, it's been 3 years since my last trip, i miss japan so much.

[@taijiskitchen]

glad you get to visit Japan finally!!

[@patriciastark7292]

Thank you for taking us along on your walk. I live in the city and I love these nature walks. I could almost smell the trees and clean air!

[@taijiskitchen]

thanx for your support!!

[@ivykaneshiro7554]

What a unique town….luckily they upkeep all the buildings and the town is respectfully clean . What an interesting and good journey you shared with us…it’s too bad that when we go to Japan we can’t adventure on our own. We must learn to take the transportation and know how to explain to others for help.

[@taijiskitchen]

yes very true. well, nowadays many people speak English, and so many places you can get along without being able to speak the language. I actually met someone, traveling alone with very little japanese. (he probably had to research quite a lot thou)

[@thomifo]

Ich finde das ist ein wunderschönes Video. Alles drin: Gegend, Leute, Essen und eine Busfahrt. Danke dafür.

I'm reading "夜明け前" at the moment, set in these places in the Edo period. It was very interesting to see these places from the book, ありがとうございます!

[@wendy-21]

The perfect walk, shaded by the wind rustled trees on a bright, sunny day. A wonderful spot to be lost in for a few hours, with just your thoughts for company. Lovely!🥰

[@DLF23]

This was really lovely. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Hopefully, one day my family can visit Japan and walk this same path.

[@angelacornell8660]

I had the privilege of walking the Nakasendo in November 2018 with a small group. A marvelous experience 😅😊

[@corazonluidarivera7705]

I love Japan. Japan forever to my heart especially Nagano city. I went Japan 1992. Watching from Philippines 🇵🇭 God bless you.

[@taijiskitchen]

thank you!!

[@Master_Blackthorne]

The cities are nice, but you hiked through the real Japan. It's so beautiful and goes with Japan's love and respect of nature. The people are nice as well and I love their handicrafts. I bought some Japanese wood rice bowls and although they were made by machine, the simple beauty of the bowl made it a work of art. Thanks for sharing Taiji-san!

[@mannaoverflows4786]

Thanks for taking us in the countryside. It's like I was with the trip with Tsumago too.. I love the greeneries.. Nature trip is awesome always.

[@Kittyminxx]

Stunning video. And I know viewing through a camera lens, only captures a fraction of what’s going on. So it must have been beyond imagination. Thanks Taiji!

[@blackishpink016]

You need to have more of these walking vlogs, it’s very interesting to watch and I’ve learned a lot of things.

[@veggiegirl3848]

Glad you got to go on a nice walking trail trip in Japan. Thank you for the tour, very interesting and beautiful.

[@debelihedonista]

dude, Im from Serbia, thats a small country in south east Europe, it's 4:30 in the morning and Im in my bed watching you walking around in Japan 🤣🤣🤣 keep up the good work, Japan has a lot of admirers all around the world, thank you for making it possible for us to experience a piece of its beauty this way. a fellow chef

I am going to travel to Japan next year for the very first time. I’m probably going go spend the most time in urban areas (Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto mostly) but this video made me want to plan another trip to check out the Japanese countryside. Everything just looks so nice, I love these old traditional buildings a lot. Thanks for taking us along this trip Taiji, I enjoyed the video very much!

[@heikewangler9105]

Your cooking videos inspire me to cook!!! I am finally enjoying cooking and eating food that's better than most take-out. I even have less cravings for junk ☺️❤️ thank you for showing us this beautiful country as well!!!

[@yukismum5141]

Thank you so much! Your vlog brought back wonderful memories of my trip with my daughter along the Nakasendo. We were fortunate to see a Shinto festival in Magome-juku the food was great and I really loved our time in Tsumago-juku. Arigato gozaimasu.

[@taijiskitchen]

oh, thats so nice to hear!! glad you enjoyed your stay!!

[@Hulamonkeydancer]

Wow, the amount of walking you did is impressive; especially because you also set up the camera to get shots walking towards the camera and away unless you had a partner 👏

[@TargetWorldwide]

Dear Taiji, beautiful video. I'd like to ask you for advice. I will be traveling to Japan (trip of a lifetime and #1 in my bucket list!) in May 2024 and have carved out a day to travel from Nagano City to Kiso-Fukushima to hike the Nakasendo Trail (about 5 kms). Some websites say to visit the town of Kiso-Fukushima, others recommend starting at Magome-juku. The town of K-F looks beautiful, but what I really want to do is do the trail and surround myself with nature and kind of travel to the past, like what you did. Would you mind sharing your recommendations? Thank you very much!
