Nagano Travel Guide

A travel guide for visiting Nagano Japan. Highlights include: Getting to Nagano from Tokyo, Nagano Station, Zenkoji Temple, Cherry Blossoms, and the Snow Monkey Park. Nagano, now connected by a new Shinkansen line, is only a 90 minute trip from Tokyo Station. Although most people only know of Nagano as a former home to the winter Olympics, it is a great day trip from Tokyo, or over-night stay to visit the Nagano Snow Monkey Park.
While you are in Nagano, make sure to their some of their food specialties: Soba Noodles, Apples, and Miso Ice Cream. The third floor of JR Nagano Station has a great selection of local eateries.

Starbucks is going to make a Japanese style Starbucks at Zenkoji Temple!!! It is like the one in Kyoto Japan!!! And it is going to be made by wood so you can feel the Japanese style living at Starbucks!! If you come to Japan, you shold try to go to Nagano!!!

I also happen to like hotel breakfasts.. just makes starting the day that much easier. I'll give it a shout out to Enzo on one of my future videos.. won't be the next couple as those are already edited and in my upload queue. But soon :)
