Very helpful information. As always🙏
Nice to see you Kenchan san ❤
Very good, Kenchan. Nice upgrade to your mic!
4:35 I was about to ask this question. It was disappointing last year to find it was closed. You should mention too, that this is the Indoor museum, and there is also a separate Tokyo Edo Outdoor Museum. That would make a very good video for you Kenchan, it's a fascinating site. Nobody told me though that you can actually go inside the houses. When I worked this out, I was able to talk with volunteer tour guides who explained so many interesting features, and they spoke excellent ENG too. Highly recommended.
Thank you for the news about Shinjuku Gyoen. I visited it back in April 2019 and you didn't need a reservation for it. Since then, tourism has only increased and now it's good to know what attractions have a reservation option/requirement so you're not waiting in line too long or miss out because tickets sold out.
Thanks for sharing all of these new changes! I'm looking forward to visiting the Edo museum sometime in the future ☺️ Take care and hope all the pollen goes away soon!
Kengo-san, I just spent two weeks in Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, Himeji, Hiroshima), and attribute much of the trip's success to your videos (the only bad part was trying to get a cab from our Shinjuku hotel to Tokyo Station during the marathon!). Thanks so much for all your hard work.
Thank you Kenchan, we are already planning our next trip to Japan…your tips always help us! ❤
Thank you kenchan, very useful information, as to the JR RAILPASS, you mean I can issue it myself at ticket machines?
I be there starting in April again!
Thank you very much for the updates! I’m travelling in Japan for the second half of March and I’m looking forward to exploring some of the neighbourhoods and locations I’ve seen in your videos. You do a very good job of showcasing wonderful but sometimes lesser-known spots in Japan. I’m eager to see what surprises I will see on this trip. Thanks 🙂👍
