I think you outdid yourself on capturing the sense of place with this one. Just amazing!
I tend to prefer cities over countryside. I enjoy experiencing the creative energy of all the different businesses vying for your attention and seeing all the subtle differences in the way that each city functions.
your dad is my teacher he's pretty cool mr.marston "arizona"
Countryside! (…unless if you're playing PokemonGo! huehuehue)
But seriously, thanks for the stunning video. The scenery is gorgeous! (^^)v
I've just discovered your channel and I'm totally hooked.
I can't choose as both are good option to pick! Let's have a compromise 😀 Suburbs. Close enough to the city for entertainment while near enough to nature.
Great video! It looks like a really beautiful area. Did you go in late spring/early summer?
Hey, I now live in the southern end of the Japanese Alps. I really prefer being in the countryside of Japan. I find it so much more interesting than the city and I just love being in the outdoors, too.
OMG what camera do you use? the quality is AMAZING!!!!
let's face it nowadays you cannot really live in a countryside all the time cities has a lot of things of offer things you need like and love however it is important to visit countryside from time to time to give yourself a break and to get some fresh air
for me I like to spend a week in a countryside every year at summer time and 7 to 10 days more through out the rest of the year
especially after accomplished something like after graduation, after a hard work season or something like that and that's my opinion
I am a city guy but yet once in a while I like to visit country sides.

Really love your series, Andrew! Loaded with so much info, great editing and beautiful images. Keep it up and cant wait for the next one! -john
You didn't say that your wife joined…but she was there anyway! ha! >:D
well edited video as always! 🙂
Great season finale! It reminded me of the week that I spent in Gifu back in 2015. I'm hoping to return soon!
Okuhida is sooo niceee you makes me want to go there..
Thank you so muchh for making this nice videos..
Choose for countryside
素晴らしい映像で日本を紹介してくれて、ありがとう~ッ!
Wow! Seriously. I'm speechless. So beautiful! Japanese countryside is the best.
Countryside FTW!!
im recent subscriber so i've not been watching videos in order but these scenery shots 2 of them on this channel have already made me cry bc they're so beautiful if i ever get to go to japan and see the countryside/mountains i'll probably cry for real and embarrass myself in front of a ton of people but u know ¯(ツ)/¯
Countryside! Been to Shirakawa-go. I want to ride the Shinotaka Ropeway and visit Gifu again : )
it would be better when you also include the tool in the making of this videos… suck as the type of the camera gimbals and so on… On top of all that,
AMAZING VIDEOS!!!!
city. duh. it has everything. btw great videos
Hello! I'm planning on visiting okuhida this October. Which town would you recommend us to stay? I was thinking about Hiroyuki ou shin hotaka. But shin hotaka seems really far away from everything and I don't know if there are public buses to get around easily. One more question: is one night stay enough to get to know the area or would you recommend 2 instead?
Thanks
Hi, I wonder Andrew if you can help me. Going to Japan to hike in Japanese Alps. What I would like to do is establish a place, a base, so I can stay there in a cheap hotel, maybe combine with hot spring and go everyday or every other day to hike. Because of cost I don't want to move from one place to the other. Just one to stay and hike for a day or so and come back, relax in the hot spring, stay in a cheap place till the next day. Of course if I need to move once or twice along the mountain range that's fine. I have a map of Japan, I tried Google but I can't find what I am looking for. For example if I stay in Omachi I can go to spring in Kuzu and hike Tate yama. I want to go for hiking trip for a month. Please help to find 6-10 places so I can have base for each mountain rang.

I am from Singapore and the group tour companies here do not offer tours to the Japan Alps.
I notice there are very few tourists and hotels in the Japan Alps area. Can anyone explain. Thanks.
This is wow!!!
I really appreciate your ability to highlight travel areas in short period of time. I enjoy a travel experience that spans a greater number of regions of a country. A mix of city and country, stimulating, relaxing, historical, and just enjoyable sights/events.
Countryside by a landslide. Cities for short stress filled trips of doom.
I live in a big city and I hate it.
Now I need coffee to get rid of grumpy me.
Love this video .Want to see Japan and Nepal constructing Cable car in Nepal in joint venture
I'm in Hirayu right now. Wonderful place. Toobad covid has forced most hotels to close down. Great video.
