Japan Vlog - Tokyo's Best Japanese Gardens

Ойындар

I am a huge fan of Japanese gardens, so while I lived in Tokyo, I visited them many times. I made this quick overview of some of the original Edo-era gardens, and a garden inspired by them, left in the center of Tokyo. Specifically, I'm visiting Shinjuku Gyoen, Kyu Shiba Rikyu, Hamarikyu, Koraku-en and Rikgui-en.

    I'm not a huge planet coaster fan, so I only watch your videos every now and then, but I really really loved this video, so if you ever wanted to branch out and do a bit more irl gardens and architecture, for what it's worth, I would definitely watch them as this video was amazing! Maybe other subs of yours feel them same

    Thank you for your comment! It really gives me the motivation to branch out into more unusual (for my channel, at least) content. I've got more footage of Japan, especially theme parks, so I may churn out some vlogs when I get to editing them over the next few weeks/months.

    The teal building at 3:15 kind of looks like those low texture city buildings all the way in the background of some game worlds. It looks so low res.

    Lol, you're right! Maybe they explains why the surroundings of Kyu Shiba Rikyu look like such a mess to me - it's like a poorly designed Cities Skylines map.

    I'm afraid Dutch parks and gardens are super underwhelming! However, a video about Rotterdam, where I study, would be pretty cool. I'll see if I can tie that into any topic!
