- FINALLY I SAW THE MOST MARVELOUS CHERRY BLOSSOMS!!!🌸🤧
After my last failed attempt I thought that this year was a wash...thankfully we went to Kawagoe and discovered that the blossoms here were still on the trees (mostly), so we were able to see a really beautiful view~~
I really enjoyed the overall vibe of Kawagoe! It was very retro, kind of like the traditional Japan vibe with a twist. I personally am a big fan of the taisho roman aesthetic (look it up!!) so I really enjoyed that!! My main complaint with Kawagoe is that they have got to figure out how to widen the sidewalk or close that main road down on the weekend or something...felt very anti-pedestrian despite everyone literally being a pedestrian lol
Also Kawagoe is much closer to Tokyo than I thought!! A lot of express trains run between Kawagoe and Tokyo every day so you can get there in under less than hour!

Where do you want to visit in the video? Let me know in the comments! 🤗 (p.s. I want to go back to that ashiyu cafe lol)
I was in Kawagoe a week ago, I really enjoyed my day trip there. It was a very touristy thing to do but near the bell tower is a place to make your own chopsticks- it was a fun souvenir.
that sounds fun!!
It took me nearly half a century and nearly twelve thousand miles to find my true love.
I hope you find yours sooner and less distance traveled.
You'll know it when time slows down to a crawl.
Love your videos. We're planning a trip to Japan next year in November. Would have been this year however we already made plans to see New York City.
Yikes 😬 New York….
@@marta9854 for the past few years my wife and I have found a lot of enjoyment from going different places. We love trying the different food. We have a list of places to stop to eat at in New York. We will need a list of places for Japan that we can do in two weeks.
The blossoms look so pretty, it's like a painting but in real life 🌸🌸
I've already decided to go to Kawagoe when I go to Japan in half a year but this has me extra excited!
The boat ride was so beautiful: being on the water and looking up at the blossoms.
maybe one day i can do it 🥹
OMG the throwback to kamisama hajimemashita, now that convinced me that I really have to go to Kawagoe 👀
yess anime pilgrimage 🥰
@@AllisoninTokyo let’s goooo ✨ I was obsessed with tomoe 😮💨
Very nice. I esp liked the old/traditional architecture. Your music selection is very relaxing too.
Everything was so beautiful here! Definitely adding this to my Japan list, thanks Allison! 💜
Everything in Japan is so cute. And I Love cute things ❤ That Town is beautiful. Thanks Allison I like these videos
I love Kamisama Hajimemashita! Its one of my fave rom-coms. Feel like it is underrated for sure.
i hadnt thought about it in years until I saw this picture 😂
very cute that everyone is so happy to see trees ! 😊
very good vibes!!
It looks amazing there. Can’t wait to visit. The “it’s a clock” bit made me laugh so much by the way 🤣
I almost cut these kinds of things 😂😂
So beautiful! Would love to see more day trips to less crowded, but equally cultural spots. Arigatoo!
Yess I will try!! Sometimes places like asakusa and such are just wayy too crowded 😅
@@AllisoninTokyo Arigatou! Think Tokyo and environs might be way too much for me although are definitely the places to be. Interested also in the smaller hopefully less crowded areas. ; )
Hidden Mickey bush had me giggling. We were supposed to be in Japan this week and devastated our trip fell through. So I'm there again via your amazing videos!
I like these videos as an inspiration for vacation planning. Next time we'll not be in Tokyo for long and instead focus on okinawa and Kyushu, but we were thinking of doing a day trip to the village next to Fuji you showed in a video not toooo long ago.
yess!! glad they are helpful 🥰 there are so many great daytrip destinations around tokyo!
The naritasan betsuin temple. Omg it gives me the summer festival vibes but on spring instead hahahaha
yesss I understand
Such a beautiful little town ❤️.
Oh yeah Kawagoe is definitely worth a visit 💯 I such a cute little town and I enjoyed my time there a lot. And the unagi I had there was incredibly good 🤤
I love ur videosss :)

This looks like a prefect day to me! I really like the accompanying music, just the right vibe/ touch.
I’m going to add this place to my list😊 I can’t wait to visit.
please do 🍒
i live in Kawagoe!
So beautiful ❤🌸 I will go to kawagoe
Cool town. Definitely want to check it out next time I’m there 👍
👐👐

Hidden Mickey !!! 😍
I need to go back to Kawagoe - I went there last year in April with a Japanese acquaintance and it was raining really heavily all day. Personally I would have given up because it was miserable and cold, but my Japanese friend was determined that we would enjoy Kawagoe, lol. We walked the main streets and went in some shops where I was embarassed to be dripping on their floors, we also had a nice lunch in a traditional restaurant known for its grilled eel cuisine. Eventually I influenced her to return to the station where we had a much nicer time in a warm English tea shop.
I hope you get to try it again with sun!! Rain can really ruin a trip sometimes 🥲
Beautiful place to visit.👍🥰
thats a lot of people 😅😂 it looks really cozy though
Not to be weird Allison but have a awesome day
I was there.Praying in the Birds Tempel you may use Instructions:)😊😊😊
