The Side of JAPAN That Media Does Not Show
We went off the beaten track in Japan and in the countryside discovered the 2 most beautiful villages called Magome and Tsumago. Which in our opinion are the most beautiful places in Japan.

HELLO THERE:
We are Joe and Liisu, full-time travelers from Estonia on a mission to break stereotypes, show diverse cultures and wander in the magical nature. Joe, a seasoned traveler of 8 years, began his journey while working in Australia, New Zealand and Canada (holding over 25 different jobs). Liisu, a former medical doctor, joined the adventure 2 years ago. Now we live on the road, exploring the world either from our backpacks or in a van.

Like your attitude and perspective.
🤗🏞❤👍
I love Japan, specially these kinds of never been seen before sides of it. Makes me feel like im in a fantasy video game. Fell inlove with the scenes the moment I saw them. Truly wonderful. Thank you for showing it to us. Safe travels!
Is Liisu ever going to practice medicine again? We need more compassionate doctors
Incredible!
Simply, deeply beautiful scenes and attitude toward all of it.❤👍
Thank you for sharing it🙏
The way my head perked up when you said Magome… We went there in 2016 and also took the trail to Tsumago. I was told that the hike "wasn't that bad" and it was "mostly downhill". -_- Well, it was magical anyway. Loved the hike, loved the quieter stopover between Tokyo and Kyoto.
So very, very beautiful❤❤❤❤❤Thanks for sharing!!!🤩🤩🤩🥰
No one shows rural Japan? Of course they do! So many people do!
So beautiful !
Thank you for sharing what you experienced in Nagano!!! . If you come to Japan next time, please come to Setouchi inland sea and enjoy 600-700 tiny islands on the sea. It's less known than Nakasane dou, but so beautiful also you can lent bycicle and enjoy 70 km cycling though huge bridges of Shimanami kaidou.
あのユーチューバーで有名なピューディパイも日本に住んでるけど、都会じゃなくて日本の田舎に住んでる😅
You found a wonderful place in the Japanese countryside. I feel so happy.😮
Another great video, many thanks, Japan looks awesome and that beef sushi I would love to try! Greetings from Dominican Republic as always and sending you much positive energy!
馬籠や妻籠は魅力的な場所です。観光客が少なかったのは、おそらく台風のせいでしょう。普段は混み合います。あなた達はラッキーでしたね。
田舎は仕事も少なく高齢化率も高い。
若い人の流入も無く、人が亡くなれば空き家になる。良い物件でも買い手が居ない。だから安い。📹👌👍
Enthralling video. So good to see the locals engaging with you.

Please do not introduce the Japanese countryside. It has been reported that Vietnamese thieves have robbed many Japanese rural houses. The quiet rural life is at risk. Also, the unreasonable behavior and trash of tourists destroy the peaceful life.
I’m glad you enjoyed Magome and Tsumagome. Honestly speaking, those places usually have lots of tourist. You can say that from the signs are written in English (if no tourist, only Japanese signs).
But there are so many attractive places like this in Japan. We are not only Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Hiroshima like you said.
Please allow me to correct some information.
6:42 it is a Chinese buildings, not Japanese.
And the Nakasendo is not made for postal delivery. In 16th century, we had Edo Era when Shogun lived in Tokyo(Edo) and regional rulers called Daimiyo had to travel to Edo to meet Shogun and serve Shogun for a few months periodically. This is called Sankonkotai. This was to see the royalty of Daimyos to Shoun, also make them to spend money. So Nakasendo and other 16th century pathways (Kaido) are made for regional Daimiyos travel to and from Edo for Sankinkotai.
世界に広めないと気が済まない輩🤮
congrats.you realized japanese shintoism. we are a part of nature. shinto shows us.
Thank you so much sharing your video. I’ve never been there before but I really enjoyed watching and feel like I could have a trip to the place you visited.
It is really interesting to know how foreign people feel and think about our country.
By the way the road sign you found which was a man with a hat and a little girl means “Pedestrian only from 10:00am to 4:00pm”. 😊
6:40 This is not Japan, I think it is China.
The city picture shown at 6:40 is clearly the one of old China, So you came back to your country without understanding Japanese esthetic taste, What a shame.
日本を愛してくださり、心から感謝致します。❤
When i was yong,, I stayed at Tsumago and at that time , the travelers from forein countries are not there. many young Japanese travelers gathered from busy bustle cities for the calm relief and thoughts of old ancestor's life!
古来の日本は秋津国(蜻蛉の国)と呼ばれていたようです。
蜻蛉は稲の害虫を食べてくれるとても縁起の良い昆虫です😊
建物はわかりますが、山の散歩道なんて、あなた方のお国の方にも普通にありそうな気がするのですが、、、
😂
6:40の絵は、中国のようです
6:42 Stop brainwashing with Chinese pictures!! Scammer🖕 This is an absolutely unforgivable insult to the Japanese people. I feel cold and nauseous! White people with the temperament of frauds should not talk about Japan! How many times do you have to repeat it before you realize your mistake? Ignorant white people don't know anything about Japanese history, only sully💢
Get lost! A fraud who is not qualified to talk about Japan!! Delete the video or change the content!!!!
6:42 中国の絵を入れる洗脳をやめろ！！詐欺師🖕絶対許されない日本人への冒涜。
寒気と吐き気がする！ 詐欺師気質の白人が、日本を語るな！何回繰り返せば過ちに気付く？
無知な白人は日本の歴史の何一つ知らず、けがすだけ💢 失せろ！日本を語る資格のない詐欺師！！
動画削除するか内容変えろ！！！！
6:42 Stop manipulating impressions by swapping Japan and China! ! It's fine if you just pretend to know and show your own ignorance, but why don't you realize that you're degrading Japan, lowering its impression, and polluting it? Fool.
Why are foreign countries repeating the anti-Japanese hate propaganda that they have continued to do after the war? An incompetent hypocrite who only sees the surface! If you don't know, stop directing and just leave the images as they are.
日本と中国をすり替える印象操作やめろ！！知ったかぶって、己の無知を晒すだけならいいが、日本を貶めて、印象を下げ、汚していることになぜ気付けない？愚か者。 外国が戦後延々と続けてきた反日ヘイトプロパガンダをなぜ繰り返す？うわべだけしか見ない無能な偽善者！知らないなら演出をやめて、ありのままの映像だけ残せ。
外国人観光客を避けたいなら、中国地方なら島根や鳥取、関西なら滋賀、北陸地方なら富山、福井などがオススメです❤それぞれに小京都と呼ばれる古き日本の街並みも見れたり自然も豊かで心穏やかな観光が出来ますよ😊
💜
Thank you for taking us on this lovely journey with you – I really enjoyed it !
