Great video sir! Definately highlighted some spots that I am adding to my list of places I want to visit. Will have to make sure to spend some time in Ashikaga in the future! ⛩
Very interested in visiting Chorin-ji in Momijigari season. Especially since it’s off the beaten track and you’d presumably have a more relaxed experience than in other spots known for their Autumn leaves. Or is the area well known with local tourists?
I was in Minobu, Yamanashi in 2019 and was probably the only foreigner on that mountain and its many temples. It was buzzing with elderly Japanese tourists, but you’re right, it made for a great local atmosphere.
Chorin-ji temple (yamakawa-cho in Ashikaga) is very famous for its autumn leaves. There are not so many tourists in Ashikaga, but locals love to visit this temple, especially in Autumn. Behind this temple is the trailhead for Mt Daibo.
Hi, how are you. Could you please suggest cheap and viable itinerary destinations around Tokyo for travel plan of one week. Thanks and lots of love amd regards from India 🇮🇳.
You should think more how much will you be spending daily. If you're eating locally you'll be spending a few thousand yen per person each day on the low end. If you have your own apartment or facility to boil water(Hotel Kettle for example) you could buy stuff like Cup Ramen and take back with you instead so you save a bit of money. Then you have your travel expenses if you're going via train(Pick up a rail card for this). Then what you may spend shopping depending on what your interests are.
Nice video Nathan - many thanks. Looking forward to my first time visiting (and shopping in Japan soon). I think the advice on maybe buying tech with the current exchange rate is a good one. It touched 170 Yen to the pound again today. One tech / shopping related question. I'm curious to know which camera you use when travelling? If it's not a trade secret :) I have a Canon EOS 5 SLR - but really want something a little easier to carry around.
Excited for your first trip! .. for this video i filmed on a Sony A7s3 mostly on a DJI RS2 Gimbal with a Rode Wireless Mic. Lenses 28-74 and 70-400. As you can see I don't travel light! lol.. I do sometimes carry the DJI pocket for more casual stuff and the iphone has been used many times too!
Mostly by car organised for me to promote ashikaga but most will be accessible by public transport with a little bit of planning.. my last video in the series could all be done on foot so you might want to check that one out
Still need to do Mysos and 3 vaccines certificate.If your not vaccinated you need to do a PCR test and have a negative certificate 72 hours prior to your flight
Have You visited any of these locations? Which one would you be most interested in visiting?
Thanks Nathan. I’m loving this content! Can’t wait for the next video again ⛩⛩
Oooh!! I'm glad you are!
The stop stone is called “tomeishi” (留石) or “sekimori ishi” (関守石) in Japanese, I believe.
Thanks for the great video and explanation.
Glad you liked it :)

It's a well known spot for locals.. but it would mean a very local atmosphere too!

Did you hire a car to get around within the area, or is there public transport?

Don't need mysos from Blue list country and quarantine for non vaccinate traveler?
Still need to do Mysos and 3 vaccines certificate.If your not vaccinated you need to do a PCR test and have a negative certificate 72 hours prior to your flight
