    Harriet and I enjoy our time in Nagano . We were there 7 years ago. Stunning. The Togakushi Folk Museum/Ninja House and Togakushi Shrine Kuzuryusha were favorites of ours. I was the one that braved the dark tunnel at Okaiden Meguri . I'm 6 Ft. Harriet passed on it. Tight spaces are not her thing. Thank you so much for bringing back some memorable moments on our trip. As always, Great video , so beautifully done. Sending you much love ❤ Harriet, Jim and Yuki

    Ahhhh... you missed Zenkoji Temple Unjoden. Just behind Zenkoji... a bit of a walk, but SO worth it - particularly in spring. Here, you can see the story (inside) of the relic that was brought to Zenkoji in pictorial form on the walls. BUT - it is only open on certain times and you need to ask to enter. The other place you need to visit is Omenajo - the butterfly castle on top of the mountain nearby. There is a secret walking trail that I have taken for years (it's a bit of a hike away from town) but I had an autobike, so it was easy. It takes you (if you take the 'usual' road) up there to the abandoned road that is fenced off when (on the way up) you have to turn right on the zig-zag road to reach the temple. However, there is a way to get into the abandon road on the way up and a pedestrian way through the fence at the top. It passes through bamboo forests and beautiful view on the way up of the mountains to the east. But, no one really knows about this. It's a shame that the 'furugia san' shops have closed down (second hand or house clearance shops) as I bought SO much from them before for little but the quality remains high. The oldest hotel on the main street (on the right as you walk up to Zenkoji) was the only building that remained standing after the early 1900s earthquake and you can go in and see the iron vaults there. Nagano is a maze of wonders. I hope that your clip encourages more to come!

    Guys, I don't know why, but I always want to tell my stories by seeing your videos. When our favorite Audrey was looking at acorns, I remembered the story of how, as a child, on the stump of an oak tree, we children decided to detonate large-caliber. shells at the neighboring shooting range. They were very easy to find in the nearby forest, as this is the largest shooting range in Russia in the Leningrad region. As a result of the explosion, 1 guy's hand was torn off, and 2 guys lost several fingers. When we greeted a guy who had his right hand torn off, and he handed over his left, we always joked what was wrong with your right hand, we were very kind children.😂😘
