    Playlist for all of the 2023 Japan videos: • Japan 2023
    0:30 We start in our hostel in the sumo wrestling district of Japan called Ryogoku.
    2:17 Thomas and Robby then head to the station to head towards the Tokyo Skytree where...
    5:04 they have a little lunch at Mos Burger.
    6:52 The whole crew met up at the Studio Ghibli store at the bottom of the Skytree.
    9:52 We then took the elevator up to the top of the Skytree and saw Tokyo from the highest vantage point in the city.
    17:00 We then headed on a long train trip to a town on the outskirts of Tokyo called Kawagoe (also known as Koedo, or "little Edo").
    23:15 Finally, we made it to Kurazukuri street; the main street filled with old warehouse buildings from as far back as the 1800s.
    25:07 We were lucky enough to see the the Toki no Kane (Time Bell) ring right on the hour.
    28:40 Finally, we had a great dinner with our friend Michael's family in what can only be described as Boku no natsuyasumi in real life.
    35:11 And then it was an extremely long set of trains back to Ryogoku before retiring for the night.

      Same, that’s actually my favorite set of shots from the whole video. Those types of moments are kind of what I live for when making videos.

    Every Adventure archive video you know your going to get educated as well as see new places. The narration and music are always superb. I smash the like before I watch their videos because I know it's going to be a straight banger.

    When I saw the title, I did not expect to see the urban side. It is a good change though. I wonder what the sky tree looks like.
    There are very very many buildings in Tokyo. The soundtrack is great.
    The tour was nice. ❤❤❤

  • @Accipiter1138
    @Accipiter1138 5 месяцев назад

    Oh wow, looks really nice during the day. I went at night and unfortunately all the lights from the photo op spots they had in the tower caused a ton of reflections in the windows and it kinda spoiled the view.
    Seeing the tower illuminations from close up was cool, though.

    Tokyo is amazing! I picked up a DJI Pocket 3 while in Japan and promised myself to create a vlog to justify the splurge. Proud to say I just posted my first youtube video! The view from my hotel was definitely better then the Skytree!

    Never get tired of seeing Japan content, particularly Tokyo. Thanks for the insights. Kawagoe is something special and probably lucky you weren't there during the day when there are thousands of tourists. You got to see the quiet side of it.

    Aw man, the Tokyo Sky Tree shots reminded me of when I was landing in Japan. I went in September last year for the first time, however I didn't stay in Tokyo and spent my trip in Kofu, so I didn't actually see much of Tokyo. But when we were flying in and landing, the neverending view of buildings was incredible. We were flying around for at least 15 minutes, and it was city for as far as the eye could see. It was my first time flying, and I had never been to a large city like Tokyo before, it was incredible. Hopefully someday I'll be able to explore the city proper.
