Walking Tour of Miyajima HIROSHIMA Part 2

[@robyn_roamz]

Oh, Shinichi! You are such a city boy. I love watching your videos. Your voice soothes me when my customers cause me stress. You are so natural. Thank you.

[@DaveDaveTee]

I travelled in Miyajima in Sep, 2017 too..It's a nice place to visit...took many pictures with deers...They are adorable.

[@martianalien253]

Thank you for supporting the local vendors too! Everyone needs do that! Mega-centers or chains are a dime a dozen. Local mom n pop places are priceless~!!

[@bettyglad9207]

The melon soft-serve looks so good. After watching your video, planning to visit Hiroshima and Miyajima in 2023.

[@debracantrell1058]

Just love these walks and looking at all the awesome view thanks stay safe ❤️

[@ThatsJeanette]

I remember Miyajima as a wonderfully peaceful place. The hiking trails up the mountain are beautiful. A river flows down from above and in some places there are small waterfalls and great bridges. In the area around the pagoda there were also one or two traditional shops with wooden furniture (on the left into the street next to the small fire station). I will come back here at least once again on the first ferry of the day if everything is still so nice and quiet. Thank you for taking us on this magical journey. 🤗

[@soggymoggytravels]

beautiful weather and beautiful scenery - I'm so jealous of your trips!!!!

[@ivykaneshiro7554]

Thank you for this magical day....it was very touched to appreciate and respect the old era to the new . Still uniquely saved . People in Japan just have so much loyalty to their country. That is why I like to visit Japan....so comfortable and clean. Thank you..... enjoyed this tour very much......

[@kristinl3640]

That was an awesome tour! Thank you for going back just for us! You are so amazing and now I Miyajima is on my list of places to see in Japan. 🙏🏼💜💜💜💜

[@verah971]

Good to see parts we didn't get to see last time Shinichi. ♥️ Thanks

[@georgianasstudio]

Thanks so much for returning to Miyajima. It is such a beautiful place and I really hope to visit there one day.

[@astroboy3507]

Good what you did shinichi we gotta keep the old ma and pa places or there will be none left!!!!🍦👍🏻🙏🏼

[@julieg447]

Beautiful thank you Shinichi ☺️ hope to visit myself one day, staying overnight on the island in one of the ryokans must be quite a treat!

[@migueltower]

Gracias por tus vídeos 😃!! Encantado de caminar contigo!!!

[@jenniferm5356]

This video made me so nostalgic! I was first in Japan in 1999 for language study and we visited Miyajima. It was magical! I so want to go back and experience it again. Thank you for such a great tour!

[@ronduffy8657]

So beautiful and so informative. Your videos not only amaze and teach me but they are so calming and therapeutic for me. I have Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and it is difficult to find calming yet interesting ways to focus my thoughts. Your videos are like intensive therapy for me as the minute I begin to watch your videos my mind calms very quickly and I begin to relax. I could live at your most recent video location. It’s so clean and inviting and the scenery is magnificent. The many shops and cafe’s are so quaint and majestic. I so wish I lived there as the ambiance and environment would be so healthy for mind, soul and body. You are both such a magnificent treat for me.

[@rosemarieteasdale9265]

UR SO ADORABLE SHINICHI ! LOVE IT

[@juanriveracaseuno]

been there twice and never knew that park and that last temple were there. thanks for the tour.

[@thewalkingfer7168]

Thank you for sharing! Great tour! 😀👍🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸

[@MrLGDUK]

Another beautiful walk! 😁

[@shannondore]

"I have to watch I don't step on a deer" LOL! Ya don't hear that everyday.😆 And you almost made me choke on my dinner when you noticed the shells moving in the ocean... I couldn't stop laughing. And you're so right... that place is magical and beautiful.😊

[@galaxyfarrahway]

absolutely beautiful!

[@thisiscyrene]

Great video! I love Miyajima so much. This video showed me lots of places I didn't know were there. Can't wait to go back!

[@karmesindryade]

Only if you loose yourself, you can find yourself. Thanks for another great video. I so much love your walking tours - expecially exploring the sideways to find things you never expected.

[@elangomattab]

I had myself a close encounter with the nature kind last week too. I went for a short walk along the river that runs along side the college I work at. I had to wait for a minute or two for a flock of Canadian geese coming out of the river to cross the walking path. The geese then proceeded to block another part of the path that went back to the building. They finally moved off the trail a bit so I tried to sneak past them but apparently they thought I was too close. I've of the adults hissed at me a couple times as I was going by. The goslings are getting pretty big but they are still cute.

[@peterjake9621]

Hi Shinichi,my wife and i enjoyed your video. If we get the chance to visit Japan 🇯🇵,we would definitely consider seeing Miyajima,what a beautiful place.🙏👍😀

[@mayawitters]

Shinichi, next time you go to Miyajima I highly recommend going to a cafe called Tenshinkaku. It's a complete hidden gem, a little cafe high on the hill with an amazing view. Even though it's right in the center near the temple and the Torii gate hardly anyone is there and it's so beautiful.

[@Shinichisworld]

Thanks. Will definitely visit there next time I’m there

[@bettyG101]

Fabulous place brother, thank for taking us along! XOXO

[@Shinichisworld]

Glad you enjoyed this

[@Over60sowhat]

This was a spectacular tour! Especially The temple with the 500 statues, each with a little knit hat! Such dedication! Thank you!

[@Nemuimori]

I like all the stone lanterns along the road

[@hereonearth75]

During this frustrated pandemic..its very relaxing to see your Video. Thank you !

[@annemackey1512]

Oh my! This brought me back to my visit in 2019. I remember a deer sneaking up on me to try to steal a bite of my cookie !

[@EarlKuOnly]

was great when i visited this pre covid ... they torii gate was still open back then, behind the temple was also a good okonomiyaki place, also the temple, this place is full of shamoji, its all over the temple, on walls, and ceiling

[@APST1970]

That ice cream looks yummy!🍦What a wonderful place you have visited! It’s so quiet and serene!

[@aeykansinee--2924]

I wish to visit here one time.

[@kleelee2670]

thank you for the wonderful Miyajima & Hiroshima content! Soooo helpful! Planning to be visiting Miyajima & Hiroshima next year for the first time. Looking forward to the visit : )

[@katherineyanagihara2909]

Aloha! Thank you! So Beautiful! Arigato!

[@Kurenai1819]

Beautiful, Miyajima! Definitely going when we can return toJapan.👍

[@vishseu9078]

i need to go there someday! beautiful!

[@louisetregomorgan4907]

Absolutely stunning Shinichi, so beautifull rich in history . This is a bucket list place I would love to visit. Most of all very calming, I like that alot . Thankyou 🧡

[@garydell2023]

This was a nice video. Got to see more of Japan and the surroundings and the people. Arigato Shinichi.

[@saraatppkdotpt8140]

Just in time for me to relax with a cup of tea 🍵 and watch those beautiful views. Thank you!

[@TheRonnierate]

I love Myajima! We took the cable up the mountain and visited the shrine with eternal flame. Love it! Thank you guys. Dale

[@thepowerstation2702]

OMG those houses at 3.00 mins are like the house 🏘 from The Grudge movie 🎦!

[@Over60sowhat]

Oh, my gosh, Shinichi! You are so totally CUTE! ♥️♥️♥️

[@Taralynn70]

"If I just walk past them, and don't look them in the eye..OMG there is another one here" I fricking ADORE you, Beautiful video, love our walks together, lol. I love watching nature scare you, lol "Do you see anything moving...ok let's move along". That shrine is so beautiful. The temple is even more gorgeous, loved the little waterfall. All the little statues with hats were adorable, I wonder if people make those, and do they change them up?

[@larryhernandez1923]

Your videos are magical! LoL

[@momonakokeshi6325]

Thank you for this second part of your trip to Miyajima. It was beautiful. That is the Miyajima I remember. Your daily walking regiment paid off. That was quite a walk. The manju and ice cream looked good. How many hours did you stay there?

[@Shinichisworld]

I stayed here for about 6 hours

[@momonakokeshi6325]

@@Shinichisworld That's a good amount of time to spend there.

[@hirokinoda2852]

Had so much fun watching the video. Last time I went, most of the stores were closed. I’ll have to go back and enjoy the food and visit the park you went to.

[@therealParisHilton]

Really enjoying these strolls, thank you

[@shampoovta]

We watched your video of the light show last night. We really enjoyed that. That house was decorated by Bo Radley. I have had Bo as a decorator before myself but we are fixing it now XDLOL.

[@KaraB-cx9wr]

Love all of your content- keep it up!!

[@mycollectionstella6023]

one of your best recent videos! haven't got a chance watch many of the earlier ones yet. loved how you braved nature. lol I'd react the same way. 🤣

[@paniodradek2900]

OMG, you really went back to film this little paradise for us! I know, you mentioned in an earlier video, that travelling once again to Miyajima would not be cheap. But let me assure you: the joy that you bring us with these precious insights in your marvellous country is just priceless! arigatou gozaimasu

[@crabapples1995]

I love this

[@lynnkihara2323]

This brought back so many memories. Missing Japan so much!

[@proevosham4923]

I must say, I share your aversion to nature. And I make no apologies for it 😀 I live near a countryside area near London, but the last year has been boring for me, having to go for country walks for something to do instead of going to check out food markets or new restaurants in London. I would much rather be where the action is! I do often muse how much the walks I go on would be much improved with a few Asian food trucks en route. 🤣

[@パウリ-g5z]

15:27 I had to read that sign a few times... Everything sure was magical up until that point. :D

[@sanzoparty1066]

Shinichi, that old house....reminded me right away of that movie The Grudge! LOL

[@shannondore]

Ya beat me to this comment. I was thinking the same thing... The Grudge.😱

[@revagreen2303]

Incredibly beautiful! 🙏🙏🙏 I so much want to visit Japan as soon as I can. Your videos are very helpful for planning my trip! Really appreciate all the tips! Would like to know the name of that small inn just before the park and trail. Will try to find on map.

[@viv5144]

17, 44 great job. congratulations.

[@benzskyeshxc96]

the pagoda view look nice.

[@WTN808]

Comment: Part 2 Thanks for sharing the second part of your walking tour. Specifically I was touched by you opting to get your ice cream cone from Obaasan. I can relate to this since I would opt to support those who has stood the test of time providing the treats over many years. They have put in the time and effort so others may benefit. I believe we are on the same page. When I visit Miyajima I will search out Obaasan's shop. Regarding deer...I would be tempted to befriend the deer(s) and even be tempted to feed same. But in my dealing with wild / feral animals sometimes it's best to have them stay accustomed to feeding in the "wild". However, you were also correct to point out not having the child throw anything towards the deer to get a reaction would have been inappropriate.

[@angelamapa2529]

We couldn't go to Miyajima when we went to Japan because the storm affected the trains :( But really looking forward to visiting the island one day

[@TheCyberMantis]

Sugoi! What a nice place. I would love to visit there. Very nice of you to buy the ice cream from the local shop, instead of the fancy one. I would have done the same. Lots of good food to try there. The deer are very friendly, not scared of hoomans. ( You know people probably do feed them every once in awhile. )

[@AHylianWarrior]

Deer poop ice cream from that ice cream shop haha Hopefully more people go to her store after this!

[@OllamhDrab]

Heehee. Deer generally won't hurt you. In mating season, bucks might get a bit more confrontational if you accidentally sneak up on one but generallly they're mellow, especially if they're used to being that close to people. There's deer here where I live, just occasionally I'll nearly bump into a buck that wandered close to my garage, but Usually it's the does that hang out here. (Also is there a word for those sunshades over the shotengai? I'm thinking making something like those might be a nice solution for a patio here that is hard to design for. :) )

[@georgianasstudio]

mmmmm melon ice cream!

[@perdomot]

I would have tried the "deer poop ice cream" they were selling.

[@mandragora-p]

I spoke with a guy who lives a few hours from there, I mentioned I wanted to visit because of your video, and he said Miyajima is where people take their partners on a date before breaking up with them. So sad! 😭

[@Wontonofun]

With respect to the first few houses you comment on. Ive read that real estate in Japan is different to some other places. That for a lot of young people inheriting a property can be bad, costing a lot of money. Also that this problem of abandoned houses is particularly bad in more rural communities as people tend to prefer living closer to large cities. This often causes some smaller rural communities to be in danger of disappearing; something similar happening in parts of Europe. Is this true? Or is the issue not as bad as I have read 😅 love these videos btw!

[@Shinichisworld]

Actually it is true. So one of the things I’d like to do is to visit these more rural areas this year.

[@Wontonofun]

@@Shinichisworld true sense of community! Very happy to hear and cant wait to watch :)

[@tharchandran3709]

4:31 "Hello deer!" I'M TELLING SATOSHI-SAAAAN!

[@verneiceturner8250]

iI understand. no apologies needed.

[@ongalicia487]

Yeah, I bought ice cream from the same shop and was attacked by a deer.

[@FromAmericaToJapan]

Males can be Territorial. But deers are delicious meat, you should come to America for hunting. To bad you can’t hunt for them their.

[@stevennorton485]

i tell you the truth. it is not moses that has given you the bread from heaven but it is my father who has given you the true bread from heaven, for the bread of god is he who comes down from heaven, and he gives life to the world, john6 v 32
