    What did you guys think of the Naritasan Omotesando area? ⛩

      Many thanks 🙇‍♂️, it's now added to my wishlist for my journey in March or April this year. ✌️😊
      Do you know a site that has a calender for sakura festivals?
      Edit: I'm specifically travelling to Tohoku region, Iwate and Aomori prefectures... 🤗

    Please add in the Japanese names on the screen when you say them. I’m deaf and auto captions obviously don’t know the Japanese and the words they add instead are so far from what you’re saying, I have no idea what the foods are to ever find.

    I went to Narita for my last 2 days during my first trip (just as Japan lifted their restriction on having travel agents) 'cause at that time I wouldn't know when my next trip to Japan would be. I wanted to experience a ryokan, but ryokan prices are insane in Tokyo, so I booked 2 nights at Narita instead. It was great; from the nature of Naritasan Park to the Omotesando area (bought some omiyage snacks and engraved chopsticks since they are lightweight and pretty cheap @ 700 yen each) to the Aeon Mall area, there were quite a number of things to do. Highly recommended to stay in Narita for at least a day if you can.

    When I was in Japan in 2007 I accidentally booked my flight back a day later then my stay with my host family. I asked them if I could stay for another night but they kicked me out. So I went to Narita Airport to see if there is a airport hotel available. Unfortunately not, but the desk lady knew somebody who had a hotel in Narita. That's how I stumbled upon Narita. I was just walking a round to kill time until dinner when I came across Narita Shinsho-Ji. I had no idea it was there and it was such a magical day for me and the perfect final day in Japan. Can't wait to revisit Narita.

    Naritasan is actually the place in Japan I know best, due to our 2 years living in the Chiba prefecture in the early 90’s. It was my go to park to relax in, and I loved the old style shops and sloping street down to the temple grounds. I would always take visiting family there.
    Then in 2016 when my daughter and I stopped for a 3 night stopover, we just based ourselves by Narita station to catch up with friends, and for me to show my daughter around Narita and parts of Chiba (we had already visited Japan for 2 weeks 2 years earlier but not gone here so this was a relaxing and easy time for us). We also had our daily coffee stop in the same sweet cafe.
    This is actually my first time seeing anyone vlog Narita since becoming active here on YT 4 years ago. It really does seem to be a hidden gem.

    Thank you ladies for the heads up on Naritasan. Will be flying into Narita in March for another visit. (IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!). Hotels in Japan seem very strict on 3pm check in. It Looks like a great place to spend a couple of hours here before heading into the city.

  • @XSpImmaLion
    @XSpImmaLion 8 месяцев назад +6

    That's the street that has a bunch of concrete animal sculptures along, right?
    We walked around there in our last trip back in 2018! xD Because we were staying close to Narita station...
    Even though most stores were closed when we went walking there, it was plenty fun. Nice to see it again!

    oo I would love to take a stroll in Naritasan park!, I could literally stay there forever and admire the beauty of the trees and the waterfall, it's wild that this place is next to the airport!

  • @bruchett4799
    @bruchett4799 8 месяцев назад +6

    I have to say, I took Narita Airport for granted. I just used it as a cheaper way to travel (considering that you are buying the 7 day train ticket).
    Maybe next time I will explore it, It gave me the vibes from Kyoto and Tokyo combined. Plus it seems less crowded/cheaper than the other two destinations.

  • @uniquelyjj6134
    @uniquelyjj6134 8 месяцев назад +5

    Thank you for the wonderful video.
    Will definitely pay a visit this coming July (Summer) before flying off from Narita. Most of my days in Japan will be in the Northern Alps Region of Toyama / Tateyama / Takayama for hiking and visiting places not forgetting Kurobe Gorge. From there will travel down to Hiroshima then back to TYO / NRT.
    Again, thanks for the invaluable tips and guidance. Without both of you, I didn't know this place exist nearby the airport.

  • @kristinwight8465
    @kristinwight8465 8 месяцев назад +6

    I learned about Naritasan a bunch of years ago and filed it away for when we fly into Narita next time… and of course we always landed in Haneda! Until this time!!! We booked the same hotel you stayed in two weeks ago and now I am even more excited for our last night in Japan! I bookmarked all the food stalls… can’t wait. Thank you!

  • @Luckdragon12

    @Muffy.from-Oz 8 месяцев назад +7

    On my second trip to Japan, due to a mix up I stayed overnight in Narita and spent the most wonderful day in Narita Omotesando area. The many traditional style shops are a snap shot of old Japan. Even if you had only a 24 hour stop over in Japan this would be the place to go to get a feel for the old Japan; and most people don't know about. When I was there, people had brought their bags, and back paksto the Shrine, to be blessed by the priest for success and prosperity, Very picturesque. Thanks for a great reminder. Cheers Muffy from Oz (Australia)

    Loved the video especially the food review from Emma😄😍 I was wondering how the convenience stores in japan handle groceries that expire soon? In my country any grocery that is very close to the best buy date will be sold at least half the price.. how do japanese stores handle this?🤔

    My wife and I are currently visiting Japan. Thanks to this video, we booked our first two nights in Narita. Neither of us had ever been to Narita City before beyond the airport, and my wife is from Japan!
    Narita is a great place to get over some jet lag before delving into the rest of Japan. Naritasan Omotesando and Naritasan Shinsho-ji (Buddhist temple) is a slow-paced alternative to Tokyo's Asakusa, and Naritasan Park is a wonderful respite. We stayed at a much cheaper hotel, and while the room was quite small it was decent.
    We will be spending our last night in Narita again. It will give us a chance for last-minute gifts and one final meal of delicious unagi.
    Thanks for the great idea!

    Thank you for taking us with you on this date. I liked the part where Emma showed off her archery. 😘 I didn't go here either when I visited, but it looks fun. We did stop briefly in Chiba. I appreciate you Sarah for not being just a sugar addict. (I don't hate sugar, but my threshold for it is lower.)

  • @georgeleorgebeorge2354
    @georgeleorgebeorge2354 8 месяцев назад +3

    Discovering Narita has made leaving Japan so less hasslesome. Since many flights to Europe leave in the morning, you would have to wake up really early to get to the airport from Tokyo. But the last time we went, we spent the last night in Narita, which meant we could make our way from Tokyo at our leisure, and then explore Narita. And in the morning, the hotel shuttle took maybe 15 minutes. It’s a no-brainer, really.

    I had some time waiting for people coming into Narita airport and spent some time in Narita. I got to watch them cutting up the eel in a shop. There was also an ice carving matsuri at the shrine. It's a nice place to hang out waiting for a plane.

    After watching this, I'm definitely making some imagawayaki soon. The question is do I get ripped off buying red bean paste or do I buy a cheap can of adzuki beans and make my own...might have to do that. Beans are healthy, but with a load of sugar and then baked into basically a Japanese Yorkshire pudding, that's going to be a week's worth of calories (because I'm making a batch and no, I'm not sharing them 😁). Totally worth it.

    This looks almost like a hidden gem tbh, but i wonder how the airport connection is as you always have to leave at like 6am for Western Europe 😡
    Those snacks for those prices will make up for it tho 😮😮

    You really know where to look,
    In fact, Chiba Prefecture is one of the most underrated tourist affairs, yet Kujukuri-hama is one of the longest and most beautiful beaches in Japan, a huge seaside town with horseback riding on the beach, surfing in some of the best waves in the world, and fishing in a variety of situations, and very close to Narita.
    There are also a crazy number of golf courses where you can play inexpensively with the best maintenance, including the Narita area.
    B&B-type accommodations are available for all but about a month in the summer, and you can enjoy the best seaside cuisine at unbeatable prices.
    Renting a car is even easier if you are staying for a longer period of time, as there are many large multi-purpose stores scattered throughout the area.
    Finally, I hope you enjoy the Japanese breads, sweets and soul food "ramen". It will be an experience you won't regret!

    I've never been, and will be flying in from the US. Was thinking to stay here for a night when I first get in and tired and probably a bit fuzzy headed. Then stay in Tokyo before I leave, because shopping may happen.
    Or I've heard some people fly in to the air port in Osaka then out of Narita. Maybe I'd try that. Aieee it's overwhelming.

    I have enjoyed visiting the Narita temple complex and I have stayed in the area. (Many years ago). But I just wanted to point out that hotel cost $300 USD in February and those dinners must have cost a couple hundred each.
    Japan is a great place to visit but one hardly has to blow a thousand dollars to enjoy one's last day and in the country.

    Of all the TC gals, I always thought Chris Broad had a vibe with Emma, so it was a surprise when Sharla outed.
    Now I know why I thought that: Emma is strong, funny, brave, sarcastic and cool.
    A Chris in female form.
    TC, she can be more. ☺️
