Next video from this trip: • Stumbling onto a Japan...
Playlist for all of the 2023 Japan videos: • Japan 2023
0:30 We start in our hostel in the sumo wrestling district of Japan called Ryogoku.
2:17 Thomas and Robby then head to the station to head towards the Tokyo Skytree where...
5:04 they have a little lunch at Mos Burger.
6:52 The whole crew met up at the Studio Ghibli store at the bottom of the Skytree.
9:52 We then took the elevator up to the top of the Skytree and saw Tokyo from the highest vantage point in the city.
17:00 We then headed on a long train trip to a town on the outskirts of Tokyo called Kawagoe (also known as Koedo, or "little Edo").
23:15 Finally, we made it to Kurazukuri street; the main street filled with old warehouse buildings from as far back as the 1800s.
25:07 We were lucky enough to see the the Toki no Kane (Time Bell) ring right on the hour.
28:40 Finally, we had a great dinner with our friend Michael's family in what can only be described as Boku no natsuyasumi in real life.
35:11 And then it was an extremely long set of trains back to Ryogoku before retiring for the night.

I absolutely love the shot at 18:08 of the person in the apartment stairwell overlooking the train tracks.

@RobbyHuang Ай бұрын

Same, that’s actually my favorite set of shots from the whole video. Those types of moments are kind of what I live for when making videos.

@yourtinysenpai Ай бұрын

Michael with long hair is unexpected!! Glad to see him on the channel again.

@sylvayne6044 Ай бұрын

Dude! The Japan trips are finally back! I have been rewatching Robby's Japan Vlogs since 2019 and finally we got to see new ones! Thank you so much!

@marieokay Ай бұрын

i have to lodge a formal complaint: no frog content???????

@RobbyHuang Ай бұрын

Hahah you know, I never actually saw any frogs. Maybe it’s one of those things where only kids can see them?

@coconutfleetsleeper5717 Ай бұрын

And a very impressive resonance in that bell, brought my new headphones to life❤

@siriggius Ай бұрын

The city videos are a nice change of pace compared to "outdoor" videos. This looks like a really cool trip from the last few videos you guys put out.

@carlocarosi7075 Ай бұрын

Robby's 2019 Japan vids are some of my favourite to re-watch (probably because my first trip to Japan happened around the same time), so it's nice to see Michael again!

@enmorot Ай бұрын

Completely agree! They're amazing! But the vids from 2015 and 2016 are up there as well!

@alexandervalaris72 Ай бұрын

Every Adventure archive video you know your going to get educated as well as see new places. The narration and music are always superb. I smash the like before I watch their videos because I know it's going to be a straight banger.

When I saw the title, I did not expect to see the urban side. It is a good change though. I wonder what the sky tree looks like. There are very very many buildings in Tokyo. The soundtrack is great. The tour was nice. ❤❤❤

I was just in Japan. I wondered what the weird structure was in the bay. For me, I thought it was from the movie Contact or Stargate. I didn't go to the top of the tower.

Gosh, I haven’t heard the movie “Kikujiro” mentioned in an eternity! One of my favourite movies and yet not too many people I know seem to have seen it 😅

In my experience It is cheaper to eat at skytree (gazilion of choices) than at mos burger ^_^ i love mos burger though!

@Accipiter1138 Ай бұрын

Oh wow, looks really nice during the day. I went at night and unfortunately all the lights from the photo op spots they had in the tower caused a ton of reflections in the windows and it kinda spoiled the view. Seeing the tower illuminations from close up was cool, though.

@Ranerdar Ай бұрын

My only issue with the view from Skytree is that Skytree isn't in it. Still very cool. And a very cool video.

@jonavancrail Ай бұрын

Tokyo is amazing! I picked up a DJI Pocket 3 while in Japan and promised myself to create a vlog to justify the splurge. Proud to say I just posted my first youtube video! The view from my hotel was definitely better then the Skytree!

If I recall from my days of living in Japan in the 90s, the MOS in MOS Burger stood for Mountain Ocean Sunshine. The burgers were pretty good and always served hot.

Tokyo has the most populous metro area in the world, at over 37 million. Tokyo proper is about 14 million, while Mexico City proper is under 9 million. The largest city proper in the world is Chongqing, China, at over 32 million.

Never get tired of seeing Japan content, particularly Tokyo. Thanks for the insights. Kawagoe is something special and probably lucky you weren't there during the day when there are thousands of tourists. You got to see the quiet side of it.

Very nice….Nice views on Top of the Tokyo Skytree, and I enjoyed the hiking videos from the Japan trip as well. I was always fascinated by Mt. Fuji even on the Microsoft Flight Simulator.
