Thank you always. I'll keep working on more different locations. :)

Another fantastic video! The production quality keeps improving. Helpful graphics. Sound levels are smooth. Excellent camera angles. (^.-) Soon Toho Co Ltd will be calling you! (^.-) Years ago, I worked in Kawagoe at the Amazon Fulfillment Center. This location is for fashion (clothing, shoes, accessories). Because I was there for work I NEVER got to see Kawagoe. After watching your video I want to return and just enjoy (no work!). Therefore... I'm sending thanks. (^.^) おつかれさまでした。

Thank you so much Carl san for such a big Super Thanks for the video! Haha, I'm not sure about Toho but I'm relieved I didn't shock your ears this time. I'll keep working on it. Oh wow, that is interesting you've visited Kawagoe for work. Yes, Kawagoe is very different in the city center and outside. I hope you get to visit the old town part. :) Thank you so much again. I really appreciate your support.

Kengo-San, thank you for sharing. It's not a place that would have otherwise been on my radar but looks like it is definitely worth a day trip out from Tokyo 👍 And the soy sauce looks like a good gift to take home!

Thank you for noticing the soy sauce Jamie san! I've tried several authentic soy sauce but this one wast really good and not expensive for taking 2 years to make. Yes, Kawagoe has mixed review but it might be good to check once for half a day if you have time. :)

Thank you very much for another great video Kengo ! I have to admit that I have never heard of Kawagoe before. It looks really lovely. I am starting to plan our 4th trip to Japan (in March 2025), where will go to Tohoku. We also want to see new things in Tokyo, and maybe stay 2 nights in a place near Tokyo. For this, I am considering Yokohama, Kamakura, Nikko and now also Kawagoe. I have been to many places in Japan (some of them not very touristy), but to none of those places. I know that all are very different. I think that Nikko is too touristy for me, and that I would enjoy Yokohama (mainly for the cup noodle museum and the huge chinatown) and Kamakura (for the temples and shrines, and the seaside location). If you had to choose, which of those would you choose, and why ? Also, is it worth going on a day trip to Kawagoe (we are staying in Shinjuku) ? It looks lovely, but not really different from other places I have visited in Japan.

@tokyokenchan

Ай бұрын

Thank you so much for watching. :) For me, I would choose Kamakura as I like the quiet temples in Kita-Kamakura and view of Mt.Fuji from the beach. The only headache is to go through the busy Kamakura station to change to Enoden tram. I can walk from Kita Kamakura to the beach too.

@swissfoodie3542

Ай бұрын

@@tokyokenchan Thanks a lot for your feedback. Seeing Mt. Fuji from the beach sounds great, so I will choose Kamakura.

Thanks for the video. Love it! Planning to go back Japan this fall. A quick question, due to continuing depreciation of JPY, I heard some restaurants in Tokyo start to provide foreigners a different menu with much higher charges. Just wondering have you seen the situation like this? Personally, I would not appreciate that. Attracting foreigners to Japan will boost Japan's economy, bring more USD, and establish good images of Japan. Thanks

I love all the interesting satellite cities of Tokyo. I have a question; if I have a 48hr or 72hr subway ticket (the one that covers the Toei & Tokyo Metro lines), can I use it on the subway (the Fukotoshin Line I think) from Shinjuku Sanchome to Kawogoe. Do I have to get off, exit and purchase a new ticket at Wakoshi and sacrifice the convenience of the direct service.

Yes you can use up to Wakoshi. You can pay later at Kawagoe station for the fare between Wakoshi and Kawagoe.
