Gundam Factory Worth Visiting? Nighttime Yokohama Chinatown Ep. 402

Yokohama Gundam Factory costs 1,650 JPY only for entrance and 3,300 JPY for the Dock tower, but is it worth money to pay? Finally visiting Yokohama Gundam Factory, hope you enjoy the timelapse of Gundam too!

Thanks also for your visit to Chinatown. Your dinner looked meccha oishi. And thanks for your words about appreciating the things we have. You always have inspiring words about life, and they're much appreciated. Arigatougozamiasu! 👍

    I managed to go to the Gundam Factory last year in November and I was blown away. I'm a fan of Gundam and it was my bucketlist to visit it once I am able to travel back to Japan. I'm glad that they kept extending after Covid, so that more people can visit it. I went there in the late afternoon, but was so indulged in the whole place, I decided to stay until the evening to capture the Gundam with the sunset. I definitely think the evening is one of the best time to go if you want a beautiful scene. Though I recommend going early too if you want to get the exclusive items (since they might be sold out by evening). Watching this video transported me back to Japan, and now I'm thinking whether I should try to visit this place one more time before it closes next year. (Also the night in Yokohama was beautiful. Went for a walk around Yokohama after visiting Gundam Factory, and I definitely recommend).

    You are a timelapse master - Rion - but the Gundum one has been really special. Yes, Yokohama at night is always awsame. Your eating of the Chinese food obviously became a serial but it is so ajoyable to watch how you adores it. China town at night has a lso an admirable atmosphere but not that crowded as during the day. I am so glad that after all the troubles during the week you were able to make such a relexing video as well as to check your bucketlist as related to final visiting the Gundum Factory. I appreciate very much that I had no major troubles during the week - only the time flies and very soon the first half of the year will be gone. Looking forward to new adventures!!!!

    hey Rion, it is alright to get unexpected occasional hiccups after the many times of being flawless with your video livestreams. Don't take that last Sunday livestream at Ueno too hard. It was a great one seeing the cute plushies while you were visiting the zoo. Oh yes I love this Yokohama visit you were showing here. I didn't realize it needs tickets to visit upfront. I thought I can stand afar to look at Gundam. Visiting Yokohama is already on my itinerary, so now it looks like I need a ticket to visit Gundam factory. Thanks for doing this video. Loving it ~ GAO~~~

    15:03 "...too big for me...", then proceeds to order three dishes🤣. Carb overload. 15:22 ごめんなさい Rion-san, suggestion: as your vids are in Japan, you can save some energy and breath... no need to say "Japanese" yen each time, also AFAIK, no other country has the yen as its currency, so it's not like you need to specify "Japanese" to distinguish it from "other" yen. 18:29 It appears that what you have is still Japanese-style Chinese fried rice; the Chinese version uses a longer-grain rice. It looks like medium grain or short grain on your plate. Otherwise, another interesting video up to your usual standard. 👍ありがとうございます.

    Great memories again! We were there in Apr, and the promotional model kit was also out of stock 😪😪😪 Not a Gundam fan but my hubby is. According to him, the Gundam model kits are really worth it and not available or not easily available elsewhere. So if you're a Gundam fan, please bring money/credit card because you will want to buy tons! You will only be constrained by your luggage space 😂😂😁😁 Prices in the Gundam cafe is a bit pricey but they have some cute stuff that you can bring home after eating. I think there's this Taro character in Gundam, it's some pudding or dessert dish, after enjoying the dessert, you can bring the cute glass home 😊😊😊 And visit the restrooms, they are decorated with Gundam photos
