Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 06. 2024
- "Japan Off The Beaten Path" is a new series on my channel, where I show you more of the unknown areas/prefectures in Japan and encourage you to travel and visit areas other than the common places such as Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka.
In this first episode, we visit and explore around Akita Prefecture in the Tohoku region of northern Honshu, the main island of Japan.
I came here during Autumn(end of October), which is the perfect time to come to see the autumn foliage!
ITINERARY

As for transportation, it takes 4 hours to get from Tokyo station to Akita station via the Akita Komachi Bullet Train.
It costs around ¥17,000($160 USD) however if you have the JR pass you just have to pay the small fee of the reserved seat on the Shinkansen(all seats are reserved).
Or if you are going up to Hokkaido or coming back down from Hokkaido, you can change at the Shin-Aomori station and take the local JR train down to Odate station.
Going back to Tokyo from Shin-Aomori station is also possible by taking the Hayabusa bullet train. (Around ¥17,000)
Even though Akita is in Japan, each prefecture is so unique in it's own way - I learned so much from this trip and could see a different side of Japan.. I hope to share this kind of Japan more and more with you through my channel :)
and lastly, a big big big thank you to my friends at Akita Inu Tourism for showing me around Akita!!!! Couldn't have done this video without you!

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Akita. I've been there a couple of times, but never really ventured out of the city and usually there for just a few hours. Kiritampo is so delicious I crave it right now.
By the way, congrats on winning a spot at CZcams Nextup! You totally deserve it!
I lived in Akita for almost 2 years and except for the freezing cold, loved it so much!
Lorien's Lunch Box Is it expensive to live in Akita?
Danke Schoen not as expensive as living in the big cities like tokyo,osaka
Danke Schoen not as expensive as living in the big cities like tokyo,osaka
I’ll be moving to Akita-Ken later this year. Sounds like you had a nice experience:) and yes- I bet it’s cold! I’m bracing myself for the winter. Haha
I came back just today from 16 days Japan trip, I've travelled to 9 prefectures (11 cities).
Best experience of my life!
Favourite dish was Kobe beef in Kobe and my favourite city was sapporo and osaka... the shinkansen ride from tokyo - sapporo (10hrs) it was amazing. The view was exactly what you showed on your video the first 25 seconds.
Also, snowfall came early in Sapporo and we were lucky we got to see snowfall.
私は秋田で生まれ秋田に住んでいます。
今は紅葉がもっと進んで、映像の秋田内陸線の路線も赤や黄色がもっと鮮やかになりました。
秋田を沢山紹介してくれてありがとうございます。
秋田は良い所ですね＾＾
また行ってみたいです。動画を観てくれてありがとうございます！
wow, amazing views from the train.
The awkward moment when he said ‘every time I come here...naked’ hahaha
I came here to see if anyone else noticed that 😂😂
This is such s great series! I lived in Akita as well as northern hyogo for several years and I’m glad you’re showing off the less traveled but amazing places in japan
Your videos just keep getting better.
Thank you for the beautiful production!
This is the kind of series I enjoy because it's very informative and showcases hidden gems! Another great video, Angela!
Yay :D Let me know if you have any video requests~
Thank you for showing the beauty of Tohoku. That's where I'm from and I really enjoyed how you promote this region!☺️✨
Yes! I would like to travel to other prefectures other than the main tourist areas. Thank you Angela! 😀
What an absolutely beautiful place. I love that you are going to be showing lesser known parts of Japan. I would definitely put Anita on the list of places I would like to visit. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos.
Thank you Brielle :) There are so many amazing places in Japan!
Great way to kick this series off! This made me realize I need to visit Akita during Fall, the colors are unreal!
Yay :) this series is to make people go explore other areas instead of the popular ones! That's where the hidden gems are ;)
Stunning places, thank you for sharing !
Words can't describe just how beautiful the place is. but still "WOW"

And there came a man running from the farthest part of the town.

Obey those who ask no wages of you

Aww thank you! I want to show people just the normal? side of Japan I guess. None of that viral crazy stuff about Japan...
So artsy!🗻🎨
I was in Akita University early 2000 for 4 years. Yes, it's a heaven on earth! We usually hang out together on top of mountain Taiheizan doing BBQ together. Well, Akita is popular with Akita Bijing - most beautiful girls in Japan 😙❤
Beautiful video❤❤💐💐
字幕最高です！これで、更にファンが増えると思いますよーー！英語が分からなくても平気！平気！

Amazing video!!
"Off the Beaten Path" is a great way to brand yourself! Keep it up!
I’m so happy to see your vlog About Akita-ken I Love nature I love Akita
This is absolutely fantastic! The new video style is different and very welcomed.
Please continue to make more videos - esp on these lesser known gems. Can't wait to visit Japan again next year. Even though my Japanese is absolutely shocking, the kind people there are always willing to lend a hand and I look forward to each visit.
Looking forward to your future videos. Please don't stop - you're on a roll!
Thank you so much :) I'm sure you will be fine, you will pick up the language as you go along. All the best and thanks for the support!
Wonderful video.Thank you for featuring akita 💛

Great cinematography and editing, and hosting!
Going to enjoy this series a lot! :D
I love the 'hidden' gems of Japan. The landscapes are always stunning and there's hardly any tourists around! Just you, nature and the Japanese culture :)
Yupp, exactly why I love these areas :) Thanks for watching!
I am so happy I found your channel. The views were gorgeous.
Welcome to my channel :)
I truly appreciate you to upload this episode! I grew up this region in Japan. I grew up in Aomori-city. My mother is coming from Odate. I am living in Oregon USA now, I really like living in here in OR because of people and nature here, but, wow, Aomori and Akita, such a beautiful place to visit! if you visit Japan, highly recommend to go those area, and don't forget to eat Kiritanpo in Odate:)
I LOVE this. Cant wait to see more hidden gems
Can't wait to show you more!
Beautiful prefecture is Akita.
I'm literally in love with this and all of your videos❤️Very high quality,a lot of magnificent views and useful information😍You deserve much much much more followers than you have❤️
Thank you :) I love making these videos and showing people the another side of Japan so I don't worry too much about numbers of subscribers :P
can't wait to see your Kyuushu guide!
Can't wait to go! :)
Omg! HAI!!!!! Please go to Nagasaki, I did my student exchange programme there and it was amazing! Oita and Kurokawa are amazing as well! And Fukuoka! Ah I miss Japan 😭
this is now my favorite video! I had an Akita dog when I was younger, and it was wonderful to feel those happy memories while being introduced to a truly beautiful place!! thank you for this, it was a heart warming journey :-)
Aww awesome!! I'm so glad you liked the new video of the series :) I wish I owned an Akita dog - jealous!
Angie although I've been to Japan several times your Videos are my Favorites to watch over and over again
So pretty place ! I love it👍💯
秋田に来てくれてありがとう。とても素敵な動画だと思います。
かつラーメン今度食べに行ってみますね。
wow fantastic video! the doggies were the best addition ever!
Great job! I want to keep seeing other parts of prefectures that are far away.
That is what this series is for :) Glad you liked it!
The videos are incredibly well done, top notch.
So so Beautiful!!
Right!!
Such well made video! I love the Akita so cute
Haha thanks :D
Such a cute puppy!
Amazing content! Thanks so much for making this video and sharing your wonderful experience. I'm travelling to Japan in November and will definitely visit places mentioned in this new series :)
That opening shot was stunning! So artistic and symbolic! It was certainly good foreshadowing of this excellent episode and the ones still to come in the series. This is getting me so excited for coming to Japan! (25 days to go!)
Wohoo! Enjoy your time here!!
Wish to see more picturesque parts of japan especially in this period ;-; it's beautiful . Great videos btw!
Thank you! :) Will try to get some more out~
This video was great! :D And this region looks so beautiful
Very nice video showing Akita to us Angela. When seeing those big landscapes and wild nature, I always imagine how it had to be 1000 years back. Weeks travelling through forest, cross rivers and living at the pace of nature.
That's a very interesting way to think about it! It must have taken them hundreds and thousands of years but it's so amazing and beautiful when you look at it now.
I really enjoyed this video and I'm glad I discovered your channel.
Wow this looks like a lovely place!!! Colin seems so nice 😍😍 it's cool he's a former JET, I am planning on doing that and I'm so nervous and excited!!
Was really looking forward to your new video yayyy thanks for posting!!
Thanks for always watching and supporting girl! :D
internationally ME always!!! biggest fan !
Wow, Ramen, Tonkatsu, and curry combinations I haven't seen before, Hachi~helps!
Awesome video! Brava
Thanks for this Video. I will be travel to Akita next week and your video has given me some ideas on where to explore.
Keep up the great work
Will do! Aiming for a video out next week sometime :)
please do more japan places that are off the beaten path. I have already visited tokyo, osaka, kyoto, kobe, and would love to visit areas in japan where most people like me do not know! great video!! subscribed
Love your videos! They remind me of places I've been lucky enough to visit as well as giving me reasons to go to places I haven't been to!
