  • There are some places in this world we have to visit before we die. Places that are so unbelievably beautiful that we need to see it with our own eyes to believe it. This Japanese National Park in Hitachi is one of those places. Between April 15 to May 10, it becomes a place where the ground meets the sky - the Nemophilia flowers, also known as Baby Blue Eyes, bloom making a fantastic landscape that can't be compared to anything else on earth.
    Hitachi Seaside Park (国営ひたち海浜公園) is also an amusement park. In fact, there are 7 different areas to explore inside the park, all for a reasonable entry cost of 410 yen for adults, 80 yen for kids.

    amazing how the japanese public respect the park
    theres probably only a handful of other countries that would respect the boundaries of the park
    the rest would probably allow their kids to trample all over the flowers and the park would be forced to place barriers

      Shin - What are you talking about? People just respect the place and kids do as well by example, - the true freedom society, is when you don't do something because you know it's wrong, not because you are being told not to.

    • @tonytouchzz

      Ye. I see this all the time everywhere I go. I remember going to this cherry blossom viewing in Sydney once, and all the people are pulling on the flowers to take selfies. Just in general no respect to the trees :(

    • @BRuh-gv3rk
      @BRuh-gv3rk Před 4 lety +1

      It definitely helps when our religion teaches us to respect and appreciate the beauty of nature. From trees to the ocean there are Gods that represent them, and by disrespecting the nature we are essentially disrespecting the Gods of said nature. I'm sure that's not a rare philosophy, but with Japan being a homogenous nation it's easier to enforce and teach these philosophies to younger generations. Sorry for my lackluster english, I am a college student

    Wow, John. How magnificent this is. Are those lone, rogue tulips growing within the Nemophilia at 1:33?
    Two aspects of Japanese culture that your videos showcase are the Japanese people's love of nature, and the pride they take in their jobs. I love how they respect nature, evident with the cherry blossoms and now these flowers. Also, the pride that these workers feel is evident. This employee was so pleased to discuss the beautiful park with you, and his descriptive words really tell the tale.
    It truly is something to behold.

    Hi John, I just wanted to say that this channel is amazing. My wife and I have travelled to Japan several times and we have taken a lot of inspiration from your channel on where to visit, and have also reminisced watching your videos about places we have been. Your videos are very well put together, they are concise, humorous and most importantly, very informative. I hope you continue to make videos for many years to come and I can't wait to see you reveal more of Japan's lesser known attractions. Greetings from New Zealand.

At mere glance, one can feel as though this place is detached from the world itself, free of all things gloomy. It's a practical paradise to the eye! This is a remarkable video.

    I'm Japanese. I must say thank you for making those videos about Japan. You videos really remind me of how beautiful my country is. I want to go visit my country again soon.

    Your videos are the best videos about Japan! I like your work so much, thank you for this quality! I'm not good about listening english (this is not my first language) but you speak so clearly that I understand everything you say.
