We had the 3 most incredible days in and near Takayama, Japan. We visit Shirakawa-go, a picturesque mountain village, historic Takayama, and the fun Hida Folk Village near Takayama. We try Hida beef for the first time (watch Heather actually become speechless!), witness Japan's glorious autumn leaf colors, and try our hand at a few traditional activities. An amazing 3 days!
THANKS FOR WATCHING - you're the best (yes, YOU)!

日本人をも行きたいと思わせる素敵な動画。編集も手が掛かっていて素晴らしい。

Your journeys fascinate me every time. And the last extra video is actually my favorite. If you enjoy Wagyu beef, there is no need to choose a famous and expensive brand such as Kobe Beef. This is because it is very tasty no matter where it comes from in Japan. The quality of beef is ranked in five levels, with 3 or higher being unquestionably delicious, and 4 and 5 being enchantingly delicious. The highest rank is A5, which can be purchased at supermarkets, so please explore and see for yourself. By the way, the orange fruit on the tree with all the leaves gone is the persimmon. Japanese fruits are expensive but very tasty. In early summer (June-July), we recommend cherries, loquats, peaches, and watermelons💓

美しい屋根ですね。日本人だけど白川郷にはいったことないです。焼肉うまそう。JAPAN＝Ramen&焼き餃子だと勘違いされている外国人は多いけど、どちらかといえば、餃子はChina。かつ丼、天丼、牛丼などどんぶりものの良さがわかるようになると、あなたは真の日本通🗾

Takayama is one of my favorite cities. Not to mention the atmosphere of the town, Hida beef is also the best. Takayama is located on a highland, so the cherry blossoms bloom a little late. So hopefully, you can enjoy it at the same time as the Takayama Spring Festival.

Bill also looks like he’s carrying a heavier load, which requires more food 😀

I've been watching Heather and Bill's videos for a long time. This time, the Hida and Shirakawa-go video was a very good teaching guide video. It was very enjoyable, with the charming personalities of you guys. By the way, if you have the next opportunity, I strongly recommend that you go hiking in the Tohoku region. Most tourists from abroad don't stop in the Tohoku region, so you can experience new sights and food, and have wonderful communication with the most charming people in Japan. I highly recommend hiking for you around Zao (there is a beautiful crater lake near the top of the mountain). Please do. Thank you always, and take care, stay well (from the bugs!!!).

Ever watched "Your Name" based on Gifu? It's an anime movie. But it itself is a masterpiece.

I live in Ome City, Tokyo, and I've seen Japanese serows twice in the parking lot of my house. Bears also appear in the neighborhood .😅

Hi. Which month did you go? I’ve booked my trip for h fall color but I think I booked too early in the season😢 I love Takayama. We’ve been there once. Love your video!!

@TalesFromOurPocket Күн бұрын

Hi, fall color timing varies every year! This video was recorded around November 1. If your main goal is fall color and you think you booked too early, you could try going to Hokkaido! Takayama also has slightly earlier fall color because it's a little higher in altitude. Kamikochi has even earlier fall color.
