Winter in Japan, when the country is covered in snow, is breathtakingly beautiful! Skiing, Snowboarding and seeing monkeys isn't the only thing you can do though!
In this video my friend Victor and I are exploring Japan's hidden winter shrine in the mountainous area of Togakushi, making our way through the snow, beneath centuries old tries...

Wonderful Video Johannes. The shots up the snow-laden mountain were at times truly breathtaking. I love taking images and freezing cold temperature aside, I simply wouldn't know where to point the camera. I think the cedar trees are called Cryptomeria - so stately, graceful and elegant.
@JapaneseJourney
@JapaneseJourney 3 жыл бұрын
Yes, it truly was breathtaking. And in addition to the scenery we had the perfect conditions with lots of snowfall throughout the previous night and the day! They are Cryptomeria indeed. Shooting there with a wide lens makes humans look even smaller/the trees look even more gigantic!

Johannes; I just watched a fascinating youtube video called "Japanology Plus - Miso". They talk about Nagano as a premier Miso making center in Japan. They spoke of someone in Yokohama 'Fujimoto Tomuku' who was ill and began to take Miso soup more regularly to aid in her cure. She opens a shop called (I think 'Misomaru' ) for her customers. They mentioned using miso paste mixed with freeze dried vegetables etc and freezing these balls then one takes a ball from the freezer and puts it out to warm up a bit then drop it in a small bowl and add very hot miso broth. The curative powers are said to be very helpful and I know you were ill so perhaps you might try this if you haven't already done so. Miso might be an interesting topic for a video from the perspective of it being very healthy. I hope I haven't bored you with this but I would like to learn more. Be well. Patrick

Very nicely composed, Johannes! It is very thoughtful of you to include the details on how to get to the shrine. Victor sometimes works with Norm Nakamura of Tokyo Lens. Do you ever get a chance collab with Norm?

Thank you etherdog! About doing a collab with Norm, I don't know. I've known Victor for about 3 years now, and we've talked about making a video together for quite some time and finally did it. I've never met or spoken to Norm however, so I really can't say.

I always loved snow but didn't realize how much I'd miss it until I moved to the Tokyo region. I do not miss the grey sky and little daylight we have in Bavaria though.

Maybe. There's something called カイロ here, which is some kind of heat plaster. They make the cold much more bearable.
