I also enjoy that exact same thing💖

I agree. And this video was particularly good because of the rain

And the typed commentary is the perfect addition. Tasteful slightly humorous but educational and fun. I love that it's not just asmr its educational asmr.

100% love these videos for the amazing videography, respect for the community and absence of background noise. Just pure enjoyment ❤️

And also a good way to avoid copyright claim. Audio copyright is so unmercifully cruel. If you dare using a copyright music, all monetization goes to the music maker as if your video is just a $hit.

Agreed, as someone that lives in Las Vegas where it's sunny 99% of the time, this rain scenery in an beautiful old village surrounded by mountains was absolutely spectacular.

Please subscribe our channel thank you so much.

Ikr

my exact feeling. but, i lived most of my life in a desert area.

Funny thing. This village served as a inspiration for an Anime.

Funny you bring this up. I lived in the beach and desert areas of Calif for 32 years, and then moved to the coastline of the Pac NW…..and I am FASCINATED by the rain and the sounds of it. I have been here now in the Pac NW for 30 years and I LOVE IT. It’s green, wet, and gorgeous.

Bro this youtuber can't talk

Yes, loved the rain sound and of course the rice plants love it too!

IKR! Thank you! I thought i was the only one here who loves rain. The fog, especially, made a little safe cocoon out of the village, the rain cutting off outside sound. Just like a fairy tale. 🤗

Hey 😊 I'm from Germany, may I ask you which city you visited?

@@need_chocolate Schwarzwälder Freilichtmuseum

Beautiful area, and museum.

@@mytkc66atbat25 I'm not sure if I've been to the Freilichtmuseum before, but I've been to the Black Forest many times and I can only agree with you, it's really, really beautiful there 😊

Hello Carole how are you doing and how’s the weather over there? I was going through comments when I came across your post.. I would love to be a friend, would be nice if you can add me up, i hope you don’t mind?

Agreed. I too think that the rain adds a lot to the impression of this village - simply by way of illustrating how much less control about our environment we used to have in ages past.

Staccato?

@@educationforblind6362 A musical term. I recommend looking it up if you want to know details. The way I understand it, it is a way to (for lack of a better word) emphasize single notes. To make them distinct in a way, compared to a more "flowing" melody.

@@ranekeisenkralle8265 this originally from latin.

@@ranekeisenkralle8265 not really used as musical term.

The Wada house was once a private home and still is, though the private portions are not open to the public. It's about 160 years old.

@@shirokumakogyo 160 years old! I shouldn't laugh, but I'm from the UK, that's normal here. My aunt's house is 600 years old!

@@feiryfella 160 is very old in Japan, where houses were made mostly of wood, paper and straw (The Three Little Pigs!! The only stones were typically in the foundation, with the beams perched on top of them), and where fires, earthquakes and other natural disasters are common in most parts of the country. In the modern age, with cheap, modern construction materials, the assumption has long been that your house won't last much beyond your 30-year mortgage, which is why Japan is one of the few markets in which most homes actually LOSE most of their value over time. That seems to be changing a little, slowly, but talk of new "100-year homes" is coming from only a handful of builders.

@@feiryfella Due to seasonal temperature differences and high humidity in summer, condensation tends to occur in Japan and building materials do not last long. Nails in particular rust easily and corrode the wood around them. However, if stone or brick construction is used, people cannot withstand the heat of the Japanese summer due to poor ventilation. They are also less resistant to earthquakes than timber. Therefore, materials with good air permeability, such as wood and paper, were suitable for building materials in Japan. Naturally, however, the lifespan of wood as a building material is far shorter than that of stone or brick. Temples and shrines have adopted and developed construction techniques that do not use nails. However, this method requires skilled craftsmanship and is expensive to process. Gassho-zukuri thatched roofs are relatively long-lasting but require a great deal of labour to construct, so they declined after tiled roofs became more common, and now cost between USD 80 000 and 150 000 to replace. In an ageing and less populated village, they would not last for 100 years without protection as a cultural asset.

@@roadfox808 Very interesting! Thanks!

The rain just makes it more like Hinamizawa lol. From what I've seen the village is very tourist friendly, but how was your trip? Would it be enjoyable to visit if I don't speak fluent Japanese?

@@razzKey In Japan in general, pretty much everything is in English. Especially the cities. This is a World Heritage Site. They expect tourists and are designed for it. Places that were under construction/renovation when I was there look really good in the video. I STRONGLY suggest the observation point he couldn't go to. You'll recognise the view immediately.
