    I am Japanese. My high school was in the "Yanesen" area. If you want to visit Yanesen, June is the best time. Azaleas at Nezu Shrine are famous.

    One tip for visiting Japan is wear good shoes and use them a lot. The train system is awesome so it's tempting to ride it everywhere. But the more you walk the more cool places you'll stumble upon. I ended up on Yanaka Ginza simply because it was on the way to where I was headed.

      Now this is my kind of travel tip, lol. I agree 100% about the walking and having more opportunities for discovering some of the local best.
      You're very lucky! I hope I get a chance to go as I just finished my first year of 日本語 (self-studying). I absolutely appreciate you sharing. ありがとうございます。

    Finally, after 9 months, an narrated video!
    Even in this much more modest format, the narrated video is great. More like this please.

    This area looks so cool, especially as a ginger lover! Also, as someone who loves to walk around Japan, I absolutely LOVE the "On Foot" videos and wish there were more!!

    Yes! I love the Yanaka area, it's so old, quiet and charming. I did a similar walk like you a few weeks ago in the neighbourhood and am dying to return! Hot tip to those going to Yanaka Ginza: don't go too early otherwise nothing is open lol (as I found out!)

    Wow!!!
    I was craving for a video like that guys. It was amazing! I'm happy that a big city like Tokyo has a calm area like Yanese. It is really inspiring. To make the things better you guys made a really really well explained video.

    Most shops in Japan don't open up until 10 or 11 AM, and many close by 5 or 6 PM. Depending on what time of the year you are traveling to Japan you will have longer or shorter days of sunlight. Yanaka is a cool place to check out, It definitely feels nostalgic with its small shop culture, but also part of the present.

    Interesting! I was only going to stop at a soba shop outside Nippori station, but now I have an opportune reason to explore that section just opposite where the shop is.

    Is mandatory wearing a mask outside?

    • @japanguide
      @japanguide  Před rokem +1

      No, it is not mandatory. To the opposite: the government guidelines state that masks are generally not needed outdoors (although the general public still sticks to wearing them). More about mask customs: www.japan-guide.com/e/e2234.html
