DON’T make this mistake in Japan⛩️

This is how we avoided he crowds at the famous torii gate walkway in Kyoto????

This place, called Fushimi Inari Taisha, has been all over social media lately, and it's of course a really cool spot. Sadly, however, it's hard to appreciate the beauty and tranquility with thousands of other people around⛩

There are as many as 10,000 Shinto torii gates here and the full loop takes 1-2 hours to complete????

Save this for your future Japan trip or share it with someone who's going????

3 Day Trip from Tokyo to Kyoto via Hakone | japan-guide.com

Learn more about this trip from Tokyo to Kyoto via Hakone:


On this three day trip we'll travel from Tokyo to Kyoto, making a stop at scenic Hakone between the two. We start among the skyscrapers of Shinjuku and then explore the sights and natural beauty of Hakone. Then it's on to Kyoto to walk through the historical and charming Gion district. Finally we end with a hike and luxurious kawadoko meal in the verdant Kurama and Kibune area in the mountains to the north of Kyoto before visiting legendary Kiyomizudera and heading home. Along the way we utilize two different discount passes to save money, the Odakyu Hakone Freepass and the Kyoto Osaka Sightseeing Pass (Greater Kurama and Kibune Area).

What to do in Japan in Winter

I spent a week traveling around central Japan, and here are some things you can do in Nagano Prefecture in the winter!

In part 1 of my Japan winter series, I visited the beautiful mountains in Chino and Komagane city in Nagano.

The views at the top of Mt. Kurumayama and Senjojiki Cirque were breathtaking and best of all you can get to the top easily by a ski lift or cable car.
For those who want more of a workout, it's a great starting place to hike to the other mountains in the Japan alps!

Stay tuned for part 2 where I share with you what you can do around the city and a hidden gem in Nagano!

Shot by the talented Mari Wash:



❐ P L A C E S M E N T I O N E D ❏

What to do in winter:

⇢ TOKYO TO NAGANO

Japan Travel 2024 - How to Get Around - Visiting Mt Fuji

Check out the best Tokyo Travel in 2024! Before you go, I'll show you how to get around visiting Mt Fuji from Tokyo. If you haven't seen my other video on Arriving In Japan, please check this one out also.

This video will be the first in a series that will guide you to the Kawaguchiko area and subsequent videos in the series will show you what to see and do after you arrive.

There are many ways to make this trip by bus or train, but I'm going to show you my recommended way to go - by express bus! Going by bus guarantees you a seat; the staff will handle your luggage, and in my opinion, it just a more relaxing way to travel.

In this video, we start from Shibuya Station, but the same methods can be applied to stations like around Tokyo, like Shinjuku.

After arriving at Kawaguchiko, You'll see our recommended Hostel and great place for local food and drinks.
