In this travelless year, your walks around Tokyo are refreshing.
I love your walking tours of different areas in Tokyo
Very true I love watching the walks they do
Hi,I am violinist in Japan.Everyone should go Ueno Park!cuz very beautiful place also feeling Japan. Once I performed violin at Ueno park last year!
I always stay nearby UENO Park whenever I visited Tokyo. It's a good area with good food and also a huge park for walks. It's been upgraded a lot in this video wow!
missing japan ... praying everything will be back to normal soon ... keep safe
Hi, yes pls do Kamakura. It's on my go to list if we are ever allowed to go to Japan again. (From Singapore.)
I love sound of the cicadas 😊 That park is wonderful. All the museums are so nice! Wow...big pagoda! Today...it's humid and has been raining. It's 12:51pm Monday...Covid-19 cases are rising again here in my county. College kids going to parties. So, I don't go anywhere. It's causing anxiety to go crazy. So watching your videos helps me to "escape". Thank you again for sharing. In answer to your questions..I love seeing the temples. I would love to see them. yes a weeping willow..one of my favorite trees. ❤ I love the lotus plants..the flowers are so beautiful. And your aren't babbling about nonsense. ...oh my I can only imagine what it would look like to see all those lotuses in bloom! Thank you for sharing!
I’m Japanese, but I’ve never been to this park! Lol Thank you for making such a nice video!
My mother and I went to the Metropolitan Art Museum in springtime 2016, my last visit to Japan. It was an hour or longer wait in a long line for a famous artist and the attendants gave out umbrellas to shield us from the sun. I live in Northern California and we are amidst intense wildfires and our outdoors looks and smells like a barbecue. Since Covid19, family has not gone anywhere except for groceries, so it’s marvelous to see you walking about in places I dream of returning to. Thank you with all my heart for braving the heat and humidity to show us this beautiful park. I hope to return when we are able to!
I hope you’re able to visit again
My family is from Japan, however I have only been there a few times. These videos bring back a lot of fantastic memories. Thank you very much for creating such wholesome content, it is greatly appreciated
The cicada sounds, so beautiful
I’m so happy you recorded this! Here on Guam currently we are going through another semi-lockdown and we aren’t able to go to the parks or beaches.
Satoshi should have definitely went on this walk with you! It’s such a beautiful and romantic scenery!
Thank you again for sharing this! Feels like I’m walking with you :) I really miss Tokyo.
Thanks for watching and continue to stay safe
I can’t speak for everyone but I love seeing temples and shrines in Japan. Also you showing Ueno Park gives me a new place to visit next time I’m there! ☺️❤️
I love seeing all those "hidden" temples and shrines! Same with all the parks and green spaces within the city as they form a pleasant contrast with all the busy streets and densely packed buildings.
I especially enjoyed the part where you walked around the temple with the beautiful lotus pond! For some reason it exudes such calming and nostalgic vibes.
Last time I visited Tokyo we stayed near Uguisudani, within walking distance of Ueno Park, and we walked there often. I have such fond memories of that park. I love the Shitamachi museum, too.
my partner and I got engaged at Ueno park. It's my favourite place in Tokyo. The old ladies that feed the sparrows on the pond path are lovely. And it's so peaceful. I love seeing the temples, and Kamakura sounds brilliant! Go to the big buddha and go inside!
Just catching up with this. I love seeing all the temples and shrines please carry on showing us. Such a lovely peaceful walk with you today.
The park gate at the station was still under construction when I left Japan earlier this year. So cool to see it open - can't wait to see it in person someday (hopefully soon)!
It's 1.20pm Tuesday as I write this. It's sunny outside and around 13 degrees Celsius here. We just had an inspection from the real estate agents which went ok. I'm crocheting a cardigan for myself then I'm about to sew some curtains. It's a good day. Looking forward to Spring here in Penguin, Tasmania, Australia.
Oh I love temple and Shrine too. I usually would look up on your channel to see more temple and Shrine update as I found it really fascinating! 😄😄
I was there in 2019 attending a concert at the music hall right outside the station...lovely day. Btw I got scam by a "monk" asking me for money to re build their temple and I realized it was a scam until this time hahaha. Shinichi my buddy, you should make a video talking about tourist traps and how to avoid them...cheers!
That's a good idea !!!
Wow this new entrance is sooo needed! I def need to check this place out! Thanks for always taking us to cool spots!
Thank you for taking us on yet another tour of your city. It was a great idea to go late in the day because the places are so much nicer without lots of visitors. Take care in all that heat and with the virus.
Really beautiful park and the soft evening lighting made it even better.
Hi Shinichi, I loved this video! I adore parks and temples! So beautiful and relaxing - especially during these crazy times. I’m working from home and take a turn around a little local park near my apartment 3 times a day. Thank you for this gorgeous video.
Love these walking tours of Tokyo. More pls! For my city (SG), it's SG Botanical Garden (UNESCO heritage site) or the newer Gardens By The Bay with the greenhouses tat I love to go when I want a mini getaway from the city.
I really like those places. I’ve been to the gardens by the Bay three times
Thank you for sharing! Love the walks! It is raining and storming where I live. Just relaxing inside today. Parks are open but we aren't allowed large groupings. Stay healthy and stay safe!🌸
Temples are awesome so are shrines. I enjoy them because those are the places I'd go. Do whatever you yourself is drawn to film. If it isn't received as you want there are still those who enjoy them. Thank you.
Loved it. Hotel idea also sounds nice. Idk why your temple videos aren't popular, temples/shrines in Japan are beautiful.
Love your walking tours including visiting the temples. Please show more of your beautiful country. Love it all. Here in Vancouver the temperature is pleasant as it is only 25 Celsius but occasionally it can get as high as 35.
I really appreciate this video. I've wanted to travel to Japan for so long and now with the virus, it will be even longer. It's so lovely to just take a walk with you through places. I really look forward to seeing more of Japan through your eyes.
I hope things get better soon.
The cicada sound is intense. Like intense enough that at times is unnerving even through hearing just the recording I'm glad that you consider it part of the atmosphere because otherwise it might just drive me insane.
By the way we have cicadas here in North México but I was reading they're on like a veeeeery long cycles here so you only hear them a lot each 13 years or 17 years apart when they come above ground so we never really get used to them.
I love your voiceuu. ❤️❤️
It calms my soul.
Love the time of the day that you filmed. The light and the sky are sooo beautiful!!!
You can see the Sakura trees blossom on Google Maps, looks great!
Love Ueno park and am so happy to see it again, thanks.
So relaxing. Love it so much. Thank you for taking us there😍😍 green view everywhere.
Ty shinichi san for taking us around with you. The walk was great threw the park ty again aloha
This video brings back great memories of Ueno Park, that little winding path around the ponds was our favourite areas as well, the lotus ponds are just amazing! So much greenery in the heart of the city. In answer to your question regarding temples, I'd be very keen to see more of them and I think your plans for Kamakura would be great. I hope you enjoy your Tokyo Disney Sea visit in September - I imagine it'll be a lot easier to get onto the rides if there aren't so many people there ;)
Shinichi, the peonies at Ueno Toshogu Peony Garden in January were so beautiful. Highly recommend if anyone likes flowers.
Tamakuda (apology spelling) yes interested. I like seeing the shrines and temples. I am never bored and you have my full attention. It is like I am walking beside you and you are talking to us.
I was at that Starbucks in 2018. Loved Ueno Park and the National Museum.
Thoroughly enjoy these walking/ biking tours
Aww really miss morning jog in Ueno Park. Thank you so much, Shinichi!
I go to ueno zoo every time I'm in tokyo its so cheap for a zoo and such a lovely day out
Wow interesting background you have... thank you for sharing also I very love your videos ❤️
Hi Shinichi 's world
Hi everyone 🖐️ hope everyone is safe in Orange Texas were expecting bad rain on Tuesday but today is pretty 🖐️
Hey Sonia keep safe. From Australia

Hi🖐️
@@marilynyoung8343
You to be safe and thank you 🤗💕
Thank you for making videos like this. I love nature. I have always dreamed to visit Japan since I was a little girl. Maybe one day my dream will come true. The first place I would want to visit is Kyoto. Please show us some more places like in this video it is absolutely relaxing. Btw, summers here in Iowa are hot. Today was 35 Celsius and so humid but I don't mind it. We have cicadas and I love their little singing. It really relaxes me. The best closest park here is Kent Park. I do go there from time to time. I wish you a wonderful day. Take care Shinichi and Satoshi.💕
Brings back so many great memories. Remembered we went to that Starbucks there at night.
love watching these types of videos. its nice to see what its like over in japan at the moment love to hear what you talk about while your out and about. cant wait to see what your next video will be about? keep staying safe,
I love Kamakura. Been there several times and love the Daibutsu and Kannon temples. Lots of good street food too.
".. or remains of a temple": There used to be a big Buddha statue: "Ueno Daibutsu". Most of it was melted during the war. Only part of the face remains and has been restored to its site.
I own an antique post card showing the statue from a distance. In the photo also, the cherry trees had not yet been planted, so the park road was as wide as it is further north.
Mostly because of this post card, I'm planning to visit Ueno park and this place whenever I get the chance to visit Tokyo. (Second reason is Mitsuboshi Colors ... )
Awesome
I went inside Toshogu last year and loved it. Great for pics.
I like seeing temples !
Absolutely stunning views of the city . Thankyou I learnt so much about your wonderful culture because of you and your passion for being a Utuber . Great vlog.
I love the temple videos, theyre very interesting :)
i was there in spring 2019 and it was unforgettable.me and my cousins came from the ameyoko entrance all the way to tha center where sakura was at its heavenly beauty.and i vowed to go back!
i will have to explore some more of ueno park. thank you for the tour.
stay safe.
This video popped up on my recommended and the timing, I've been missing Japan. I was in Tokyo almost a year ago and visited Ueno Park the day after the Super Typoon when the subways started running again, I never got to see the whole park. I miss Tokyo so much, i hope I can get back again. I was glad for your video, it brought back a lot of memories and showed me a lot i never saw. Thank you.
We were in Tokyo at the same time during that typhoon! Our Ghibli Museum reservations were the day that the subways started running again--we were so anxious we wouldn't get to go. Interesting to see how Japan handles emergencies, though.
@@helvetiqa I contemplated booking that tour for weeks but in the end decided not to but now I wish i did. It might not have worked out at the time though. I was surprised how fast they got subways running tbh. How was the Ghibli museum?
@@melissa2361 worth the ordeal of spending a couple hours dealing with the crashing reservation website the moment the tickets were released for the time we'd be in Tokyo--it is crazy how popular the place continues to be! Studio Ghibli films are really special to my partner and me, so we wanted to make sure we saw it at least once.
And yes, definitely grateful that Tokyo had things up and running so quickly after the storm. We actually were supposed to be in Sendai the day the storm hit but we hightailed it back down to Tokyo as soon as we heard that the shinkansen were being cancelled. If it's enough to stop the trains in Japan it's going to be pretty bad!
Thank you 🙏🏼 for showing us around in such a hot 🥵 day. Hope u r doing ok. The park is HUGE ! Love your tour!! 🌷🌷 nice 👍🏼 mask 😷🙃
Would love to visit at times like this - where there are barely any people. So beautiful and peaceful
I love too see the temples and shrines. I think they are so beautiful and peaceful 🥰
It's a awesome Park love these walks stay cool take care 😘❤️
Wow ! Love that park 😮😍
Hi Shinichi how you doing good to see thanks for taking on this walk enjoy it
Thank you for sharing your latest adventure, I do so enjoy your videos very much. There bitter sweet, I had a month long visit planed for Japan & Korea. But since the pandemic hit, it's a no go. But I'm hopeful in a year or two I'll be able to grace your shores.. You & your partners have been helping me add to my bucket list of places to visit & of course places to eat. LOL!!! Once again.. THANK YOU!!!! 💜💜💜
I just love your walkabout... Shows places and neighborhoods that is sooo interesting, please keep it up. I and my wife just love Japan and cant wait to be there again. Hello from sunny Singapore... Stay safe. 😊👍
Beautiful park!! 🌼
I love to see the temples. They are so beautiful.
Thanks for sharing Shinichi... was supposed to visit Ueno park this past Spring, but obviously that didn't happen. Hope to visit soon.
So much have changed since I was last there in year 2018. I love going to the park since I love also going to museums in Tokyo. Thank you for this video. 😀
Hello from Singapore. The weather in here is always hot. 32C. But there was a thunderstorm yesterday, so it is a cool 28C now. But, all throughout the year, it is hot.
I spend my weekends going to a park here bec there is not much people, except for joggers who are far away running where I walk. I love walking in parks/nature.
Take care & thanks again.
lots of museums in one place? This is awesome!
I like to go to Rising Park in my town. Outside of my town in Ohio, we have an area called the Hocking Hills. The word 'Hocking' is based on a Native American word for "bottle". The area is fulled with forested hills, cliffs and caves. Rising Park gets it's name from the Rising family. They gave the park to my city as a gift. It has a lot of hills, but it's most famous feature is Mt. Pleasant/Standing Stone. It is a large rock hill made of sandstone. You can hike up to the top and get a great panoramic of my city and the surrounding valleys.
My brother in law lives near there (Amanda, OH) . We have visited Central Park? Central Creek Park? I can't remember. Pretty area.
Please please please more more temples!!! I love temples and shrines! And yes for kamamura!! 😍😍
My husband and I were just there last Christmas! We visited the zoo and then ate fried chicken next to the lake for dinner (I wanted that KFC Christmas experience lol). I miss it all so much and there’s so much more I want to see when we hopefully visit Tokyo again in the future
I live in the city of Scranton PA USA and go to my local park Nay Aug Park. Sometimes I listen to you while I am doing my walk.
I love them lotus leaves all along the water after we leave the zoo walking past it all!!! 💚
There is a beautiful park 5min from our place called cenntenial park in Sydney!
missing japan ... thank you for walking Ueno park for me!!!
Recently found your channel, I can’t make it to the premiere cause I’m at work 😂 but still love your videos. Keep up the great work
I love your videos! I live in Portland and travel to Japan/Tokyo as often as possible. I don’t think temple videos sound that great if it’s the main focus. I like when you pass by like in Sinsoji, but then explore the surrounding areas. Either way, I’ll watch. You guys are great ❤️
thank you for this series ❤️ i love virtual sightseeing ❤️
i love DisneyLand idea ❤️
I enjoy parks over temples :)
Haha, the heat must be getting to you! But this was an awesome tour thankyou
I totally enjoy walking with you ... and your babble is fun! Just got a mini trampoline, so when you walk I do to. Please take us to as many Temples / Shrines as you can ... they are so beautiful ... all parks / gathering spots ... include museums / shopping / restaurants ... just let us see Japan. I've been many times, so when you were in Asakusa I actually recognized some spots. Keep walking ... I'm with you!
Love the square and the SB there~
Wow the new gate looks great! Ueno Park is always where I stay close to so I can walk around there. So nice in the autumn! Very pretty colours.
We have been in a 1month lockdown and then another 6 weeks so far of full lockdown with a curfew so it’s been pretty strict. Most shops are shut unless super essential and you can only go out for like 3 reasons and no further that 5km from home. Will open up soo to just the stage 3 it was before and possibly stay that way till the end of the year.
Love it! If possible, I would really love to see a tour of the new Miyashita Park and what you think about it. I think that could be an interesting video too.
Another wonderful video thank you. Here in San Fernando California I like to go to Balboa park it has a lake where you can rent paddle boats and Bicycles with single double and quad seats
I can't believe I missed this on my last trip to Japan. We were concerned it would be overcrowded due to it being sakura season. I'll definitely be stopping in next time.
Thank you for sweating it out lovely park 🎃
About temples... love to see what you can show us. As long as something u love to show us, we are gamed . 💗💗
I know little about temples, anyone live in them? The plants were awesome!
Shinichi, I like temples and unique architecture. I'm sorry they aren't very popular subject on your channel, but I would love to see more temples featured. There's a Buddhist temple that's withing a half an hour from my house, but it's a Theravada Buddhist temple. The monks are very sweet.
I'm so glad I found your videos Shinichi and Satoshi! You guys are the best--kind, funny, have great taste in food, interesting ideas about things, and awesome spirits of exploration! I've been binge-watching you throughout lockdown and your videos make me so happy. I've visited Japan twice and had tickets to go for a third trip this May, to stay in Kyoto, but the virus prevented my trip. Last trip I visited Ueno Park and the National Museum and both were spectacular--so wonderful watching you walk around there today. I definitely recognized some of the places you passed. I'm wondering, was Shinichi born in Hawaii and then moved to Japan later, or returned to Hawaii having been born in Japan?
I was born in tokyo. Moved to Hawaii when I was 5. Came back to tokyo at 24.
Great video. Would love to see inside the zoo.
aw! i miss japan so much! i thought i knew ueno park pretty well...but i couldn't figure out where in the park you were. LoL my routine is breakfast at ichiran then onto fabric street. :)
Hi, Very interesting, I always watch videos from other continents and other cultures, for me it is a way to travel, thankful for the video. Are cicadas the background sound? Nature is cute! Thankful!
@Shinichi you mentioned cna check in, I used to watch that show. Really nice show. Showcasing different countries and cultures, and that’s the reason why I’ve known you since then. Bec I loved Japan & I loved your anime too haha 😆
Aww thanks for watching and for following me on youtube
Thank you for your tours. I am in London. Here we have Hyde Park, Regents Park and St James Park, plus quite a few smaller or less well known ones. As a believer in reincarnation I have mentally put the request out that if I am not to be born in the UK next time, may I be born in Japan. I love Tokyo and Kyoto, and have taken a lot of interest in Geishas and the Oirans. There is one particular Oiran Tyuu I absolutely love to see. I often watch videos of the Dochous. I have taken to Kabuki too. I often wonder if I have been born in Japan (Nipon) before, or maybe just visited it? Anyway my friend please keep putting the videos up for us ...
Those stone lanterns are dated back to the 16th century. Ueno park is a nice place if you have the time to spend.
always stay safe, mr. shinichi...=)
I use Agoda for booking hotels in Tokyo so you might want to check them out.
