Thank you Yuka-chan for giving us a local view of your beautiful country. It's always fun to learn something new.

[@yutin_jp]

Thank you managua-san🌟 I'm glad you like it!☺️

Merry Xmas Yuka-chan! Thanks for this video. It's always interesting to have you exploring different places and introducing them to us

[@yutin_jp]

Thank you Enrico🎅🏻 Merry Xmas🎄✨ There are many interesting places in Japan!

[@Michael-kn2kw]

I'm visiting Tokyo/Japan in February. Your videos have been helping me decide on places to see. Thank you!

[@yutin_jp]

Thank you Michael✨ I hope you enjoy your trip!🇯🇵

[@E.A.C.H]

Beauty, happiness, energy, bright smile. Thank you Yuka Chan for all that and more. ❤

[@nohandleforme....]

Thank you for the tour Yuka chan. We love you so much. ツアーありがとう優香ちゃん。 私たちはあなたをとても愛しています。

[@ThePeteriarchy]

I would never have expected a sight like this in Tokyo. I was thinking I'd have to go to more rural parts of Japan, especially up north, if I wanted to see stuff like this. Thanks for showing such a hidden gem!

[@SotaGamingYT]

え〜 これは全部いいと思う！😁

[@pfarand]

Two hours by train...and you're still in Tokyo? I forgot how big Tokyo is! No idea what a Serow is, will have to look it up 😊

[@yutin_jp]

Tokyo is oblong in shape, so it takes time to travel from one end to the other from east to west😂

[@NealeOBrien]

Beautiful scenery and, of course, a beautiful Yuka! 🥰🥰🥰

[@nemesis1er6676]

Encore merci de nous faire découvrir votre pays grâce à vos vidéos. Toujours intéressant et rafraîchissant . Merci yuka chan joyeux noël a vous!!

[@alcerto1353]

Beautiful, soothing video in form and content because it shows a cheerful appreciation of nature and life. Thank you Yuka Chan, Merry Christmas to you and all!

[@OsvaldoShigueruYano]

やっぱり東京とは思えないほど自然が豊かな奥多摩と青梅を楽しめる事ができて、優花ちゃんとなら、どんな所も楽しく感じられます。ありがとうございます。💯💯💯

[@cuda340]

That was a very nice walk along the river and the trails. I like to walk in places like this also. You can buy small bells to wear, when you are hiking, so the bears can hear you coming. Hopefully people aren't feeding the bears, this can make them dangerous. There aren't any serows where I live . I enjoyed this video.👍🐻🐐

[@yutin_jp]

I didn't plan on going on a hike, so I didn't bring a bell. But I kept talking instead!🐻

[@raymonde4272]

You can shake a set of keys as well to make a similar sound.

[@jianfengzheng5421]

awesome video

[@barrycarlisle4511]

Yuka chan can now ad nature and historical guide to her resume!! 😊

[@yutin_jp]

It would be fun to become a nature guide!🌟

[@nonrepublicrat]

Is that so?

[@kiyoshitakeda452]

Very nice nature walk. Beautiful area with turning leaves and stream. Enjoyed the walk. Thank you for your vlogs this year and Merry Christmas to you and all !!!

[@michaelthierry6699]

G'day Yuka! Popped by to wish a Merry Christmas! Have a great day! By the way, I love where you're at to! It looks absolutely beautiful! The Swinging Bridge reminds of the Swinging Bridge we have here in Australia that spans the creek leading to the now closed Sanitarium Health Food Factory at Cooranbong, NSW. Back in the early 80's, they would hold Xmas events for the workers and their families at the Swinging Bridge (my dad worked at the factory before it was shut down). Anyway, thanks for the little memory! Again, Merry Christmas! 🥰

[@alexanderjwz2124]

very beautiful, explore more nature and let us see the beauty of Tokyo

[@Willi_on_travel]

Thanks Yuka and Happy Holidays

[@yutin_jp]

Happy Holidays to you too!⛄️✨

[@AlanVByrnes]

Merry Christmas Yuka Chan and thank you for the hike around this beautiful park but I am also happy to see no bears coming after you geez can’t believe how high that’s gotten in Japan there!! 🎅🎅🎅

[@user-gw9yx2wx5g]

Thanks didn't know Tokyo has places like that.

[@RagnarokArrives]

I will show you how to skip stones. I like that you had help filming so we could see you and everything else too.

[@pierre931]

[@DrBio100]

I’ve been watching you for a very long time and just realized that I hadn’t subscribed to your channel. When I noticed I immediately subscribed. I love you very much and enjoy your channel. I’m from U.S.A. New York and I have a crush on you 😊 You have such a beautiful spirit and your smile is so adorable. 🌹

[@justinmercadovlogtv]

thank you Yuka thats the only place i missed in tokyo since my sister forgot that to put on the list maybe in the future i might come back again to visit japan together with my parents

[@Shinobi33]

I think I walked an hour and a half from Asakusa to get to one of these beautiful parks. Worth the walk

[@docsavagefan2795]

Thanks! Very beautiful!

[@yutin_jp]

Thank you Doc Savage Fan☺️ Nature is beautiful🌿

[@billbillson3129]

Wow! Another really great nature adventure with Yuka chan!!! Great job!! I had to look up 'serows' and they are cool looking wild goats! Also 'tori no ichi' is the festival of the rooster! Thank you so much for making and sharing your videos with us Yuka chan!! Best wishes to you and your family!❤❤

[@jeanlawson9133]

Very beautiful there..... Merry Christmas too you and your family.... thank you for sharing this video...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@sptoo]

You've found another soothing place to take a break from the city! It's such a beautiful and calming place! 🍂🍁 Yuka-chan, your outfit and boots look super cute on you! 😍 Wasabi is good if you have a cold and a stuffy nose 👃🏻 Too bad you didn't see a serow. They are cute, in a strange way 😅 Merry Christmas Yuka-chan 🎄💖

[@yutin_jp]

Thank you Sp Too✨ This place is recommended not only for the autumn leaves, but also for the hot summer months! The fresh greenery and river will soothe you! I had no idea that wasabi was effective against colds and stuffy noses! Have a Merry Christmas!🎅🏻🎄

[@sptoo]

@@yutin_jp Hi Yuka-chan 😊 It would be nice to relax near the river on a hot day! 🔆🌇 I'm not sure if wasabi will cure a cold, but definitely will clear your sinuses 👍🏻💦 🤶🏻🎄🎅🏻🎁☃️✨

[@minutoscomdeus-minutoscoma5]

*#Yuka** - Chan, sucesso você está se superando, parabéns pelo seu esforço!* *#Creio** que muitos jovens poderiam aprender com você, sua garra e vontade de viver.*

[@amilcarcarvalho7214]

Na história, muita gente se dedicou a conservação , Gratidão Yuka !!!

[@sunlightglider6772]

Everything Beautiful 😍

[@gingeoram]

You are amazing. As soon as I see you I start smiling and feeling happy. Even a bear would feel happy if he saw you, and probably just wave to you as you pass by.

[@martinurbani]

I love these beautiful landscapes, and you are the best guide,Yuka chan 💖

[@morbusxx7]

What a beautiful area. Nice try on the stone skipping.

[@BrennanVaughan-p4y]

HELLO Yuka! I enjoy your english challenge,good job.

[@unholy3times]

Thank you Yuka-chan i'm learning japanese and sometimes it feels so hard that i want just to give up. The only thing i do to get inspiration is to watch your videos and all those places you show us.

[@beaviskornholio2754]

You're so adorable. Merry Christmas and a happy new year 😊

[@crimsonbreath29]

Hello Yuka-chan, I don't know if you will be able to read my message but I went to Asakusa to see of you still work there on the rickshaw. I met your friend instead. It was fun talking to her in the rickshaw. I hope more success come to your channel!

[@Wernershnitzl]

I had a good laugh with your stone skipping, especially when you looked back at the camera twice. I’ve had that kind of bad luck before.

[@mcillancadfish]

Thanks for showing a different side of tokyo.❤❤❤ Love this video❤❤❤

[@raymonde4272]

Such a beautiful area full of nature and old world charm. Yuka- chan's boots did not look very practical for hiking.

[@edwardperez4193]

Love your Videos :D Maybe one day I'll visit this country because of you... you inspire me so much.

[@Nemesa]

Beautiful nature sights ( river, autumn leaves, the forest, both house and factory? arquitectures or the quietness.... ) and very nice surprise with the 50´s film poster in the bus stop at 6:08, which I did not expected. All very interesting, alongside your effort of moving by train and time for all this content = BIG THANKS, Yuka! First I thought you were joking about the bears, then when the traffic sign was showed...it blowed my mind! Merry Christmass and happy holidays from the Mediterranean Sea coast, Spain, Yuka!

[@Irish_Wanderer_cooks]

Great video! Thank you for posting. Maybe next trip to Tokyo, I'll venture from the core to see more natural areas. ❤❤❤

[@angelotimonera7967]

Hi Yuka, that's a nice walking and trek trail with all sorroundiungs in fall season. Place so peaceful and serene. Thanks again for sharing.

[@JohnM...]

That’s my FAVOURITE Japanese word, because it sounds lovely: 雰囲気。 いい雰囲気、です！

[@UrzuaTroskenia0369]

Lovely ruin's and trail, honestly I thought fall was over, I guess winter is lagging over there too...warm sake sounds good.

[@AlienRope]

What a beautiful location.

[@Paul_Caruana]

Always good to see you, pretty girl 😃. And as for your mizu kiri skills well, you need to practice…a lot🤣🤣! Merry Christmas and a happy new year, and thanks for the video 🥰🥰

[@Mythocentric]

Merry Christmas beautuful Yuka. May you always know the joy and happiness you give to us so freely! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@jeshely]

Beautiful video from a beautiful place! Also love your whole attire for the occasion even the boots and backpack combine great with the style. ❤

[@Stick-a-fork-in-Gmorks-tort]

I think the 2 hour ride was worth it too.

[@inuyashason81]

Another wonderful sight to see, Yuka chan, makes me want to see that area myself, and still looking beautiful during the fall and winter

[@VOAxInsanity]

The last times I was in Japan I was in and around the Tokyo area but I really should have went out to other areas. These are the best vlogs 💯🏆

[@nupiposti4376]

Merry Christmas Yuka-Chan... a bookseller from Finland

[@madeinaustralia2020]

merry christmans Yuka..Something for christmas would have been nice

[@VG-00]

Hello Yuka chan, a nice video. I enjoyed watching it, it was very interesting and I look forward to the next one from you.

[@lnwolf41]

You made your camera person climb that broken stair?😮 f I hope they get a bonus for that.😅 enjoyed the park.

[@gila168]

I went to Mt Mitake on Ome line bound for Okutama. I did not know Okutama is such a beautiful place. Thanks for the tip.😀

[@Harzach-Hardcastle7685]

You're right, that phone booth really looks like it came from 「Howl's Moving Castle (Hauru no Ugoku Shiro)」. It was nice to see you exploring the rural part of Tokyo.

[@gestalt3930]

Your outfit looks very cute, I like the contrast between the high boots and the oversized jacket 🙂

[@dberry1973]

I feel so educated and healed by your videos Yuka-Chan! 😍Keep making amazing and beautiful Videos! 🥰 メリークリスマス 🎅❤

[@missiem09]

I think I'll rewatch a Ghibli movie tonight because of that awesome photobooth! The hiking trail was also really pretty!

[@drumetii.2024]

Thank you! ❤ from Romania!

[@DeathLetterBlues44]

I visited Okutama with my wife at least on one occasion. We were living in Fussa at the time. Beautiful but most of Japan in beautiful if you love mountains. 😎😎😎😎

[@Evil0tto]

That is beautiful. I live in Florida, USA, and we don't really have much seasonal change here. And the state is just so flat.

[@jarek1875]

Marry Christmas from Poland, Yuka Chan. Nice to see you again, I"m waiting for more...

[@david_1704]

Fantastic video, dearest *Yuka-chan* !!! You are also an excellent KZbin "virtual-guide", as well as being an excellent rickshaw tour guide !!! Very pleasant and relaxing way of showing and explaining, Yours !!!! 🌸🌿😃👏👍🙏🌿🌸

[@Blackness101]

This is the best travel channel 🙌

[@hubertvancalenbergh9022]

I only just discovered this vlog and look forward to see more! I love Japan and hope to get there someday. ❤ Happy 2024, lovely lady.

[@tredw66]

If Americans were at that park they would be drinking beer, hurling bass lures, and listening to rock & roll music.

[@kostja8896]

I'm very happy when you smile

[@timriley4543]

It's Saturday morning, I'm having a nice breakfast and it's time to see if Yuka and Misa have posted videos. They have!! Sugoi!! Of course, Yuka is looking darling and the scenery is as beautiful as she is. I was unaware there's bears in Japan, Bus Stop is a great movie and I'll see you in your next video. Thanks Yuka!!

[@DouglasP201]

Nature is so peaceful, I would love to walk along with you one day Yuka. Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!

[@entinoo]

Such a beautiful location, I wouldn't have guessed that it's still in Tokyo P.S. stone skipping is hard 😆

[@yutin_jp]

It's hard to believe it is in Tokyo for me too🌿 I need to practice stone skipping!

[@B715]

@@yutin_jp The trick to skipping stones is to curl your finger around the edge of the stone as you hold it. When you throw the stone, you need to curl your wrist back and as you start to throw the stone snap your wrist forward to start the stone spinning as you release it. The third important step is to lean over so that the stone leaves your hand close to the ground so that the trajectory of the stone is close to being parallel with the water. And the last step is to aim so that the stone first hits the water about 5 meters away. A good throw can get you anywhere from 5 to 7 skips. I once saw someone get 10 skips before the stone fell into the water. (I do enjoy watching your videos.)

[@kristinjenkins6136]

this is one of the few places in toyko i haven't been too wouldn't have know it was there if it wasnt for yukachan

[@robertking1367]

Hi Yuka, I hope you have a nice Christmas and a Happy New Year full of many joys.
