Which theme park attraction is your favorite?
I think I have the most fun on roller coasters, but what I really look for are SHORT LINES, lol. Those have to be my favorite!
I like the Roller Coaster!!!!!
All parks 😎❤️❤️❤️❤️

The best part of these trains is you can't not get kill on getting run over by the train. There plenty of safe space under it. It would hurt getting hit but you'll probably will survive being hit.
Japan really is at the forefront of public transportation! Trains run on time even with all the earthquakes, monsoons and tsunamis. Here in Finland the trains stop running if the sun is shining a little too brightly, busses break down if there's even a drizzle, and let's not even talk about snowfall which seems to catch everyone off guard every year at the same exact time. 😅
trains stop when there's an earthquake, i know because i've had to walk home because of it
This is what a first world country should look like. Here in the US, nothing works. Everything is always broken, or vandalised, or worse. The train system/public transportation is an absolute joke in the US.
@@hamneggs345 I know i just exaggerated it for the comedic value. But the truth is the transportation system in Japan is still the best in the world, and it's constantly evolving and testing new methods.
@@look_my_daddy I know. You would think that there would be some public transportation from Orlando Airport to Port canaveral, given all the cruise ships leaving there, but NoOOoOoOo you have to pay a $100 for a taxi ride and I, a tourist from europe, had to give HIM instructions on how to get there although it was my first time ever in the U.S. 🙄
It's very embarrassing that the USA is terrible in public transportation. Heavily car dependent and makes cities very unwalkable. People in the USA are affected with 'carbrain' mentality where they become extremely hostile and angry whenever a pubic transportation is proposed. I'm glad that the place where I'm living in has decent public transportation, but it must be improved even more. I feel very sad for those in the USA that doesn't want to waste a lot of money on a car, gas, insurance, repairs, etc. and would rather save thousands of dollars a year through public transportation.
Retired 70 year old in Greeley, CO. Absolutely love and enjoy your videos. It’s a breath of fresh air compared to the cesspool we got going over here. Keep making more please.
Thank you so much! Your support means the world to me, especially coming from someone with your life experience. More videos are on the way! 🙏🎥
Japan is a pretty clean country.
Have come across one in Germany - the Wuppertal Schwebabahn. It certainly seems to be a very practical people-mover solution where town space is a constraint (helps to limit the amount of infrastructure), distances travelled are fairly short (would not work well for a large city), and it avoids the need for tunnels.
yeah, this one is based on the original in wuppertal
I rode this train back in 2011. This is when it finally really set in that Japan was leagues ahead of us in the west regarding technology. So impressive. Japan has so many cool trains!
this isnt japanese technology. This is imported german technology from 100 years ago. Its quite literally old western technology. Stop embarrassing yourself.
A modern rebuild of our Schwebebahn in Wuppertal/Germany. Looks great
Jep and the Schwebbahn is way older than this. Cause the Schwebebahn was build round 1899/1900 and the first ride was in 1901. Thanks to Eugen Langen!
Another wonderful glimpse into the wonders of Japan! That train is very cool. Thank you for all the amazing things to see!

this isnt japanese technology. This is imported german technology from 100 years ago.
Why is Japanese technology so far more advanced than in the the States. This puts us to shame. These are really cool ways to travel.
Why wouldn't it be?
Well they study harder and don't brainwash their kids simple
because of the conservative republicans they dont want to spend any money on infrastructure, but they did pass a 8 trillion dollar tax package to cut taxes for the rich when #45 was in office. And now we have a 8 trillion dollar deficit without no way to pay for that bill trump did. TRUE FACTS!!!!!!
Because the money meant for infrastructure goes into weapons.
@@Spid4rsw3bzwrong. The USA are too busy giving money to warmongers and genocidal governments. If those billions of dollars was not given to an apartheid, gonocidial, ethnic cleansing regime, the USA public transport system will be in the 21st century and competing with countries like Japan and Singapore.
Blame the USA warmongering genocide approved regime
I rode this hanging monorail in April. I was trying to get from Enoshima back to Yokohama, and Google Maps directed me to it. I had no idea it was a hanging monorail until I got to the station. Kind of bumpy, but a fun ride with great views.
I love surprises like that when travelling

I really love watching your videos. Your country is so beautiful and the people seem very respectful. Japan seems light years ahead of America in technology and the trains are amazing and so clean. We could never have that here in my country. Keep up the great work!
So many beautiful areas of Japan, by the ocean would have to be my favorites. That monorail was very cool, it gave me Star Wars vibes
Japan really is like living in the future
The west could learn a few things from them
The West seems more occupied in determining how many genders are there, what words are appropriate and inappropriate to say, welcoming more economic migrants and blaming every bad thinng to the white men ( coming from an Asian guy).
this isnt japanese technology. This is imported german technology from 100 years ago. Japan learned from the west, not the other way around
@@cooltwittertag I'd rather live in Japan than Germany though
@@itsmephil2255 i'd rather not live in an undemocratic extremely corrupt hellhole with no workers rights, which would also heavily ostracize me simply for not looking a certain way. But if 60 hour work weeks and a corrupt authoritarian single party "democracy" are your thing then japan will be right up your ally.
@@itsmephil2255 not to mention walking and especially biking around japanese cities is torture, so hostile
I dreamed this train many times before except it rides high above mountains and rivers. Surreal 😮
Hi Expeience JAPAN! Thank you for this nice and detail full video! There is so many beautiful places and trains in this video. Thank you, greetings from Czech Republic 🙂
I watched a report on NHK about the locals' reaction to the crowd on Slam Dunk spot. Older folks are really confused, poor guys, but what can they do, the country is amazing, tourists are attracted even to the animated spots.
That train was launched in Goa, India a decade ago. It had a crash during the testing and paused the project. Since then the sky bus is still hanging on the bridge.
oh how much I love trains
You had the BEST experiences of your beautiful country Japan ❤️
I REALLY LIKE HOW YOU STOP & GIVE STILL SHOTS IT GIVES US A SECOND TO TAKE IN THE SCENERY & MOMENT AT HAND. : )
Whenever you visit Germany, you should go to my hometown Wuppertal and see the suspension railway there. It was built in 1901 - still working.
I like your videos very much. 👍
So cool!
this one is actually based on the wuppertal technology
nice, i have searched for this comment that mentioned the Wuppertaler Schwebebahn. It´s my Hometown, too.
Japan is such a beautiful place! Wish I could live there ❤❤❤
" It looks like one scene from spirited away " yup bro sea train 😊 can't forget that movie
Simply beautiful in God's own country, Japan 👍👍👍
The world has to learn this technology from Japan and manage its overly crowded cities !
These videos are so wholesome. Such an amazing treat. Thank you for such awesome content.
You are so kind
This sky train ride through Japan's cityscape is exhilarating! The view is breathtaking.
Lol the jet-skiers @19:40! That's so funny. Your videos are so wonderful to watch. Thank you for sharing your experiences with those of us overseas!!
Glad you like them!
Hello that trains are amazing I am going to show this video to my great grandson he will love it we have trams in our city that travel throughout our streets have been accidents thankfully not many thank you for sharing much love from MoMo in uk 🇬🇧 xx🫶xx
I took the Shonan Monorail to get to Enoshima when I was there in May. That was a fun ride, plus you got a good view of Mt Fuji out the window on the way there.
These are such relaxing and informative videos. I love that you spend time to provide high-quality text on the videos so everyone can follow along
Remarkable feat of engineering. So cool.
Thank you for that video from Wuppertal, Germany. At 04:07 h you can see at the middle part of train 5603 the advertising for "flying sisters" Shonan Monorail Schwebebahn Wuppertal. With replacement by new trains in Wuppertal it is no more to see here. So it is surprising for me, to see it on the trains in Japan, where I have never been. Thank you🚟
So cool that you noticed the "flying sisters" advertising! It's interesting how small connections like that can span countries. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts! 🚟
Beautiful journey to different parts of the city. It is honour to view such videos 👍🏻
I wish I could see lots of those here in my city...very smart solution!
impresionante.. yo fui a Japón en mayo y me subí a este monorriel y me gusto mucho, toda la parte de enoshima y kamakura es increíble
What a pretty town and a couple of really cool trains🚆
It's like a theme park Roller Coaster!!!
Beautiful, very beautiful, and something beyond imagination. I loved it❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😀
There is also an inverted monorail in Wuppertal, Germany. It opened in 1900.
yeah, this one is based on the wuppertal one
@@cooltwittertag And there was a report in a magazine which considers the public transport in the North-Rhine Westphalia region in Germany, where Wuppertal is located, which was about this railway in Japan. The stations there look quite the same like in Wuppertal and the trains in Wuppertal are a little more round shaped. The rails in Japan look more modern, so like the Sky Train at the Dusseldorf airport. But in Wuppertal the construction is a protected memorial, so it must keep at the style of 1901, only with more modern equipment.
Nevertheless, both companies learn from each other and occasionally visit each other. Sometimes a Japan delegation travels to Wuppertal and sometimes a Wuppertal delegation to Japan.
Unlike Germany, Japan is very clean.
@@Y_hassand yet japan is still not as techologically advanced. Sad huh?
@@cooltwittertagLmao! The only more advanced country than Japan is USA!
1. USA
2. Japan
3. China
Great video ! I just love the Shonan Monorail and the Enoden. Riding the Enoden always reminds me of the film Ping Pong.
May I suggest a video about the Toden Arakawa Line ?
Great post...I used to park my car just around the corner of the "famous train stop" so that I could go surf back in the early 90's.
Thanks for another enjoyable video! I get many ideas of new places to visit and food to try for my next trip to Japan from your videos
Thank you so much 😊 I am happy to hear that🎉
Thank you for sharing your adventure! Thank you for taking me along. Cheers!
உங்கள் காணொளி மிகவும் அருமை. நன்றி. இந்த மோனோ ரயில் போக்குவரத்து மற்ற நாடுகளிலும் வந்தால் மக்களுக்கு மகிழ்ச்சி அளிக்கும்.வாழ்த்துக்கள்.🇯🇵🍜🎴🗾
Thank You for making this Video. That Train ride looks so Fun. I wish I was there I would spend all day riding it.
Wow! Amazing, I truly love this channel. There's always something I have never seen as a South African
The monorail is called "Schwebebahn" in Germany and the original hangs and runs in the city of Wuppertal... Greets from Germany.
It's not just the hanging train/tram
It's the environment...
*_Look at how clean, green and lush Japan is!_* 😍🍵💚✨🇯🇵
Yay for another video! I'll see if I can go to Enoshima when I visit in a few months!
There is one in Wuppertal, Germany and it is the oldest one as it had been opened in 1901 making it almost 123 years old.
Wow, that's fascinating! Thanks for sharing this cool fact. 🚠
I just realized when watching the train stop at the station to pick up the commuters, its very safe in the event Someone Fell under the platform, Compared to our subway system here in the USA. another W for Japan and Asia.
Delightful. Thank you.
This brings back nice memories! Thanks for taking the ride!!😉
I binged watched all your videos after discovering your channel... I'd love to visit Japan one day ❤ keep doing this videos, they're amazing!!!
Welcome!!
This type of train is very useful in hilly terrain where it would be too steep or too expensive for subways.
But...
The downside is that they use 100x more steel than standard surface rail.
Instead of two rails and concrete sleepers, they require a heavy rail guide box and suspension pillars otherwise not needed by surface rail.
These are much more expensive to install and maintain but because the rail guide is an excluded box it can run in all weather, even heavy snow.
I really like the sky rails. They’re more quiet and relaxing with great scenery.
Plus they make use of real estate not used by anything else, important in crowded Japan

Greetings from USA! (Indiana) Love your videos! Keep them coming!! 🇯🇵 ❤🎉
Thank you! Will do!
Thank you for another excellent video, love the monorail ,🚟 & the beautiful vintage train, 🚊 so clean & efficient. 🙂
That was EXTREMELY enjoyable ❤❤❤❤!!!! Thank you for uploading video. 😍😍😍😍
Just wonderful
Truly incredible and great video! I wonder why countries like the US and others around the world don't build more public infrastructure like this.

its 100 year old german technology that was imported to japan
Japan is a beautiful place. Thanks for sharing 💓
Monorail is one of the coolest things in Japan. I don't know the technical term, but I reaallyy reaaally envy the driver, maybe pilot in this case, lol.
Just back from Japan .. last week i followed your video to enjoy the monorail..Thanks a lot!
That was amazing, and a beautiful blue sky too, I really enjoyed your video, ❤
this is so cool, i would LOVE to go visit japan next year if i have the time❤
👍🌹
I had copies of Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle until I sent them to my nieces. Great animated stories. Watched several other dvds from the same studio. Liked the trip to the seaside. This a great way to get to know Japan.😊
Great trip and experience in these two locations. The station and railway crossing is definitely suitable for Music Video Recording.
No, No, No!!! The train in the sky? No way, terrifying 🤣
I love your videos. I can visit many places and have many experiences right from my phone.Awesome!
Japan's sky train is so cool!! sugoi!
Arigato!
あなたのビデオはとても素敵です。 ありがとう。 このモノレール輸送が他の国にも広まれば、人々は幸せになるでしょう。ご多幸をお祈りします。🇯🇵🍜🎴🗾
a free ticket, but it's 610 Yen. Funny defintion of free ;) Always enjoy seeing the suspended monorail. Quite different from what we got everywhere else, and despite of what Tom Scott thinks, there are loads of benefits to building a railway this way
The original "sky train" is in Wuppertal, germany!
It's called Schwebebahn ( floating train ) and it's tracks are built over the river "Wupper" ( Wuppertal -> Wupper valley ), following it for 13 km.
It was constructed over 120 years ago and opened in 1901. In all of it's lifetime, there has only been one accident with injuries/casulties in 1999 + only a handful minor incidents.
It has been named the safest transportation method in the world.
Wow amazing. I just love Japan, would love to visit soon.
This is one of the places I hope to visit someday if I get to Japan, I have always liked this monorail and the island looks really beautiful. ここは日本に行ったらいつか訪れてみたい場所の一つです。私はこのモノレールがずっと好きで、島は本当に美しく見えます。

Love ❤ japonais
VERYY IMPRESSIVE,! Scenery ALL around you!
Another video so soon? Lucky!
That monorail looks so cool and is a great way to add a train track without taking up so much space on the ground. But honestly, I'd be scared to have it above me, lol.
The trip to Enoshima was interesting, especially when you went through the middle of that street. And I've already subscribed, so I hope that helps with any bad luck I may have. 😁
Oh, thank you 😆😆😆
wonderful. i enjoyed watching ur vlog
Japan is so amazing. I would gladly live there it's amazing so beautiful . My friend if there're are men like you in Japan I'm moving there a man that likes to travel and eat and drink beer or a glass of wine 🍷 sign me up lol much love ❤
