Скачать или смотреть Hidden Japan Day Trip | Nostalgic Town, River Views & a Steam Train Ride

Step away from the busy streets of Tokyo, and discover the quiet beauty of Japan’s countryside.
In this vlog, we take a peaceful day trip from Tokyo to a nostalgic little town called Nagatoro.

Wander through retro shopping streets, try local sweets, and hop on a steam locomotive that runs along the river.
It’s a slow, scenic journey through a side of Japan that’s often missed—but truly unforgettable.

Even though it’s close to the city, Nagatoro feels like a completely different world.
We hope you’ll enjoy this glimpse into “another side of Japan.”
