Photo Diary: Japan Vblog and My Gifu trip *pic heavy*


Hello~

I finally got my Vblog video up on YT :D The video is from my first few weeks in Japan featuring few things I did from purikura with my cousin to my trip out to Gifu ^__^

I didnt show you photos from my Gifu trips, sorta pic heavy so Im sorry X3
 I had a wonderful time visiting my Aunt, Uncle and cousins in Gifu, enjoyed the fresh air and beautiful nature cant wait to go back there again :)



Please click below for the photos :)


Tokaido Shinkansen
when ever you want to travel far distance in Japan you have the option to travel via shinkansen *Bullet train* which travels at a speed of 270km/168mph with limited express stops. Shinkansen fare prices are similar to flying one way trip fees via air plane but you dont have to be dropped off at a airport. To ride the Shinkansen find a nearest JR station for more info please take a look at the link at the top :)



Located at the edge of Ise Bay in the southern part of Mie Prefecture in central Japan, Ise City has a population of about 130,000 people and an area of 179 square kilometers. One-third of Ise City is forestland owned by Ise Jingu, an ancient Shinto shrine over 2000 years old and considered to be Japan's religious and spiritual center. Ise City and Ise Jingu are a destination for almost 7 million visitors a year, most of whom come to pay respects to Japan's ancestry and to pray for peace, safety and prosperity.



Yoro falls has been chosen as one of the Top 100 Waterfalls and one of the 100 Best Spring Water Sites in Japan. It is also famous for a legend that tells the story of a pious son who ladles some water from the waterfall to give to his ailing father, only to find that it tastes like sake!

The waterfall is in Yoro Park, which boasts 3,000 cherry trees that bloom brilliantly in springtime and also has many maple trees that turn the park beautiful gradations of yellow, orange, and red.

  4. I loved your vlog, Gifu's really beautiful! I never had the chance to see a waterfall yet, hope I can get back to that somewhen.  And you have such a calm hand while filming, how do you do that?  Love the plaza around Ebina, the cinema's pretty awesome (although they don't sell cheese nachos..)  :)

  15. Thank you Eki for sharing the sights and scenery of Gifu and the falls. I have a fascination with waterfalls and to see Yoro Falls like it was up close and in person was a wonderful treat. I definitely did not notice this place until now and I guess I had learned something new today. It must have been wonderful to immerse yourself in nature, considering that it sounded quaint and tranquil.

  20. Thanks for sharing! The pictures are so beautiful and the vlog was really interesting. Most of the time from the outside a person only hears about and sees pictures of Japan's cities, so it's awesome that you showed us the countryside.
