    God, I miss Japan. Daicombo. Such a beautiful place. And it saddens me to know the castle was damaged in an earthquake. Last time I saw it. Was 2015. I really want to go back. Badly. I swear, you go to Japan once. And it just gets in your blood. Japan is a beautiful and peaceful country. And the people are always wonderful. I love Japan. It’s my second home.

    Terrific video. It must have taken a tremendous amount of work to put this together; perhaps it's also slightly disheartening that so much work went into this, and there should have more views.
    So just wanted to drop this note to let you guys know it is greatly appreciated, that most of us who watched it really loved it. Cheers, Japan-Guide.

  • @robertcrocker901
    @robertcrocker901 Před 9 měsíci +1

    Great video. Wife is from a town just east of Fukuoka and most of my memories of Japan involve travels across northern Kyushu that you covered.
    Some of the most beautiful scenery imaginable. My favorite was the Mt. Aso caldera complex--think have been there 3 times and at times when you could go up to the crater. Am always ready to go again. Remember my daughter when she was little riding the horses which you showed and remember the views that you showed. And the food!!!

    I rode a lot of Kyushu on a bicycle named Nimbus. The last trip, I flew into Osaka and took the ferry into Oita. I headed North along the coast and finally found my way to Kitakyushu and Fukuoka. After Fukuoka, I headed inland to Sawara and did a challenging climb to Mount Sefuri. I continued to ride around for a few more weeks. Japan is the safest country I've cycled in. Thanks for sharing the video. It brought back a lot of happy memories.

    Wonderful! I’ve been to Kyushu on two different holidays but aside from a Kumamoto haven’t been to any of the places in this video. We did have a sand onsen in Ibusuki though. One of my favourite places in Kyushu would be Kashima where the highlight was visiting the Yutoku Inari Shrine. Thankyou again for the amazing video.

    • @peko7446
      @peko7446 Před 4 lety +2

      if you ever go back, try to visit Usa Jingu, Kunisaki peninsula (Rokugo Manzan Temples), both in Oita Prefecture. Yotoku Inari Shrine is really beautiful and peaceful. When I went in 2011, I didn't see many international tourists. The crowd really thins out as you hike up the side of the mountain.
