  1. As if Japan didn't have enough attractions they just are adding a few more. Yep some interest me such as Sumo Live restaurant because you have to be where sumo tournaments are happening, get scarce tickets. This will make it easier to get the experience. The Samurai Immersive Theme Park is one of those places that instantly attracted my interest. Museum of Narratives and Edo Tokyo museum are right up my alley. Odaiba fountain show is another yes. Shuri Jo and Hirosaki Jo are both on my list now. Yoyogi Park cause who doesn't scenic parks. Earlier this year Ipurchased a pair of Jins frames. So when I need new ones this will be a stop.
    I can already hear my wallet groaning.

  2. I'm going for the first time in June 2026, im definitely adding PokePark and the immersive samurai theme park to my Itinerary

  3. I just visted the sumo wrestling show in Asakusa,you got a sumo stylw hotpot meal (was yummy!),the moves and meanings was explained in english,the crowd got to particapate and you got a photo and goodie bag at the end,it was well worth it! Thank you for the video nathan 🙂

  4. I love all these new things and I am looking forward to the edo museum the most to be honest. With all this however, what did cross my mind. They don't want the world to treat Japan as a theme park, but in the meantime they are doing everything to make it a theme park 😉

  5. These are my usual recommendations for you … if you apply and pass background check for Ichigaya-Dai in Tokyo, you will see things that many foreign tourists will never see,… within Harajuku is Count Nogi's house, shrine and small museum. He gave his life and his family's life for Emperor Meiji so, of course, he captured my heart. It is a bit funny to me to compare his life with the silly, happy people in Harajuku … but then, they seem so cheerful so maybe it is ok …

  6. Having traveled to Japan over 25 times in the last two decades, my wife and I consider ourselves seasoned Japan enthusiasts. We typically avoid the major cities and attractions, but we appreciate these updates as we are returning in April to visit some superb underrated cherry blossom locations, such as Yonago and Akashi Castles.

  7. This is a great video! Thanks for sharing we just came back from Osaka couple months ago and started sharing our journey as well😊

  8. Hi,
    We are from India and are planning to visit Japan for tourism next year.
    We wanted to explore this beautiful country with our small puppy (toy Pom). In your opinion, is it easy, good, or difficult to travel with a pet?
    And if you could guide us to keep ourselves ready for the challenges, would be highly helpful.
    Any gov rules or websites We need to council before we start, please guide us with that too.
    Thank you so much in advance ☺️

  9. Going in May, and have been watching the website for the Edo-Tokyo museum for the opening day. I love history, and I want to do that, and the Japanese Sword Museum on the other side of the garden.
