Yakushima 屋久島 hiking (Princess Mononoke forest) - Exploring Japan with Wageofsins!
The mountains of Yakushima (屋久島), a southern island of Kagoshima (鹿児島県), are home to lush forests thousands of years old. Perhaps most famous as the inspiration for the magical forests in the Ghibli hit anime Princess Mononoke, these trails criss-cross the island, drawing in travelers from around the world. These moss covered paths take several days to complete and are home to wild monkeys and deer. This is just a small sample of an afternoon of hiking we did during a visit in August 2016. To get to Yakushima you can either take a flight straight there, or take the ferry from Kagoshima, which you see at the beginning of this video.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I'll do my best to answer them! Thanks for watching.

Yakushima (屋久島) is one of the Ōsumi Islands belonging to Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. The island, 504.88 km² in area, has a population of 13,178. Access to the island is by hydrofoil ferry (7 or 8 times a day from Kagoshima, depending on the season), slow car ferry (once or twice a day from Kagoshima), or by air to Yakushima Airport (3 to 5 times daily from Kagoshima, once daily from Fukuoka and once daily from Osaka). Administratively, the whole island is the town of Yakushima. The town also serves neighbouring Kuchinoerabujima. The majority of the island is within the borders of the Kirishima-Yaku National Park.
Yakushima's electricity is more than 50% hydroelectric, and surplus power has been used to produce hydrogen gas in an experiment by Kagoshima University. The island has been a test site for Honda's hydrogen fuel cell vehicle research. (There are no hydrogen cars stationed on the island but electric cars are run by the municipality.)
In 1980 an area of 18,958 ha was designated a UNESCO Man and the Biosphere Reserve. In 1993, 10 hectares of wetland at Nagata-hama was designated a Ramsar Site. It is the largest nesting ground for the endangered loggerhead sea turtle in the North Pacific. Yakushima's unique remnant of warm/temperate ancient forest has been a natural World Heritage Site since 1993. In the Wilderness core area (12.19 square kilometres (3,010 acres)) of the World Heritage Site, no record of past tree cutting can be traced. The island is visited by 300,000 tourists every year.
Yakushima has been settled since at least the Jomon period. It is first mentioned in written documents of the Chinese Sui Dynasty of the 6th century, and in the Japanese Shoku Nihongi in an entry dated 702. It formed part of ancient Tane Province. It was often mentioned in the diaries of travellers between Tang Dynasty China and Nara period Japan. During the Edo period, Yakushima was ruled by the Shimazu clan of the Satsuma Domain and was considered part of Ōsumi Province. Following the Meiji restoration, the island has been administered as part of Kagoshima Prefecture.

Miyazaki | Japan's natural paradise
We made it to Miyazaki thanks to !
More travel videos on Odigo:
Miyazaki is easily the most beautiful prefecture we've been to so far, and it didn't make it in this video but it's also the prefecture that founded chicken nanban, THE BEST JAPANESE FOOD DISH EVER. Miyazaki is said to produce the best chicken in Japan (which my tastebuds can confirm) because their chickens are free-ranging and healthy. Chicken nanban in Miyazaki is a 10000% ABSOLUTE MUST if you can eat chicken.
The places we went in this video are Takachiho Gorge, Aya Teruha suspension bridge, and Udo Jingu. There's so much nature to explore, and because Miyazaki is so far out of the way there aren't as many tourists here as there are in most places in Honshu so you can still get a feel of the untouched nature.

Exploring the Japanese Countryside [Yahiko Village]
Located in central Niigata Prefecture and abutting the Sea of Japan, Yahiko Village is considered one of Japan’s most sacred areas. According to legend, the great grandson of Shinto Japan’s founding deity, Amaterasu-omikami, settled here. The god helped establish regional Echigo agriculture. Today, Yahiko Village is renowned for its rice, edamame, shiitake mushrooms and sake. Locally caught seafood is another delicious gourmet specialty. Major drawcards include Yahiko Shrine, Yahiko Park and Mount Yahiko (634 meters). The former is one of Japan’s most significant shrines. Stately cedar trees, mature maples, blushing cherry blossoms and cheery chrysanthemums can all be found on its premises. The summit of Mount Yahiko is accessible by hiking trails or ropeway. Take in sweeping views of Sado Island and the Sea of Japan coastline on a clear day. Any hiking should be followed by a soak in one of the town’s onsen or hot springs. Some are standalone. Others form part of traditional ryokan or inn lodgings. To reach Yahiko Village by train, take the JR Joetsu Shinkansen from Tokyo. Get off at Tsubame-sanjo Station and transfer to the JR Yahiko Line. Alternatively, travel from Niigata Station via the Echigo and Yahiko line, changing at Yoshida Station.

A Day in My Life in Kobe, Japan|Day 65 - Hyogo
Kobe (神戸, Kōbe) is the capital of Hyogo Prefecture and one of Japan's ten largest cities. Located between the sea and the Rokko mountain range, Kobe is also considered one of Japan's most attractive cities. Kobe has been an important port city for many centuries. Its port was among the first to be opened to foreign trade in the 19th century alongside the ports of Yokohama, Nagasaki, Hakodate and Niigata. In 1995, Kobe was hit by the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, which killed over 5000 people and destroyed tens of thousands of buildings. Today the city is completely rebuilt, and few signs of the terrible event remain.

JAPAN: Two Castles in Two Days
In this second video of my trip to three castles in three days in Japan. I leave the Funtoco Backpackers hostel and explore Osaka during the daytime. The first location taking me to Shittenoji Temple, a temple from 593 AD thought of as the first buddhist temple in Japan. It was founded by Prince Shotoku. Along the way I walked up Tenjinzaka. I also rotated a little 転法輪印, or dharma wheel. I think I spun it the correct way haha.
Then I took a short metro ride to Osaka Castle or 大坂城. It was built in 1583 and since then has been restored. I didn't spend much time there though because it was so crowded.
I then headed to Mos Burger to have lunch. It's a Japanese fast food chain that has your typical fast food fare. I had a Teriyaki burger and a melon soda that was the greenest thing I've ever seen in my life. It was pretty good! And I had a little snack from a Lawson convenience store that was great.
I then got back on at Osakajokoen station to head to Mino Falls. I transferred at Osaka station to get on the Takarazuka line to head to Mino-o station.
Next up was a walk up to the actual falls itself. It turned out this was a fairly popular tourist destination as well. I took some back trails to avoid most of the crowds though. Along the path there were lots of stalls deep frying maple leaves, also known as maple leaf tempura or momiji. I knew I should have tried it so you guys could experience it, but I just could not bring myself to eat a leaf. I'm sure it was fine, but I just wasn't in the mood to eat a leaf.
Along the path I found a Sakura viewing spot, that didn't have any of the cherry blossoms blooming anyway. I found a statue of the dude on the 1000 yen bill. His name is Hideo Noguchi. I didn't realize it at the time though.
Mino falls itself was pretty disappointing all things considered, especially compared to the trail overall. So overall the hike was definitely worth it. After, I took a train back to Osaka station and then rode the shinkansen bullet train to Himeji, my next destination. There really is no feeling quite like taking a long distance train ride gazing out at the scenery of Japan.
After getting to Himeji, I walked down this cool shopping street called Nishi Nikai Machi to get to a Hostel called One Hostel and Standing Bar. Enjoyed a quick shower and then had Tsukemen, a Japanese dish where you dip noodles in a hot soup.
The next morning I headed to Himeji Castle, the largest castle in Japan. It is also known as the White Heron Castle both because of its color and because it looks like a heron sprawled out over the landscape from above. Along the way I saw the Himeji City Zoo and the City Museum of Art from the outside. I went inside Himeji Castle and it was much more impressive from the outside. Just seemed kind of small when you actually went inside.
I then headed to Takeda, which was an hour train ride north to see Takeda Castle. When I got to Takeda Station, it was nearly a ghost town it was so quiet and empty. Until next time...
Once again sorry for the terrible autofocus.

Forest of Yakushima
Lovely, lovely forest of Yakushima, a UNESCO World Heritage site. 屋久島の森。The birds and the trees and the sound of the little river - it was calming place! I'm sorry I have no videos from Princess Mononoke's forest though, but I can assure you that was even more beautiful!
Shiratani forest, Yakushima, Japan. 2012-03-15
We did it! We sailed to Japan!
We made it to Japan!!!!! Well, we're on an island that is east of Tokyo, but it's still Japanese soil and we are so happy and proud of what we did!
It was a 21 day sail from Majuro to Chichijima, it wasn't an easy ride, and many things did break on the boat, including our inverter, tachometer, some sail slides and our wind meter (a revenant). But now we're here and we can relax a bit, we plan to spend two weeks here, having delicious Japanese food, taking long walks and cycling!
Enjoy!

What to Do in Kyushu For 10 Days?
Revisiting this part of Japan I visited when I was nine, I discovered a lot of things that I didn't see, and probably wouldn't have been able to see.
An awaken volcano, steaming hot springs all over town, collapsed castles and crumbled walls--to name a few--are only part of the highlights of my trip to Kyushu over golden week holiday.
Of course, the food was amazing too. I'll never forget how finger-lickin' good the hormone hotpot was. (I obviously mean pork tripes, duh!)

Japan Travel - Hiking the Samurai Trail (from Magome to Tsumago) in Kiso Valley, Japan
Natasha Rooney is in Kiso Valley with Liam on this hike in Japan. They are walking from Magome to Tsumago, two of 69 towns along the Nakasendo route -- also called the Samurai Trail, -- connecting Tokyo and Kyoto.
The Kiso Valley is famous for its hiking trails and pretty and historic post towns, which have been preserved and offer accommodation for day trippers who are walking or touring by bus. Look for the ichirizuka - distance markers, denoting every 3.9 km (or one ri). For more information, see
The trail between Tsumago and Magome is the best preserved section of the Nakasendo and takes about 2-3 hours. This includes stopping at the Friends of Tsumago teahouse and viewing the 2 waterfalls, O-daki and Me-daki. Read more at

It's called the Nakasendo Trail, a 533-kilometre route through the spectacular mountains that once linked Kyoto, the home of the Japanese emperor, with Edo, the political capital (now known as Tokyo).
Much of the original trail has been covered with roads, railways and pachinko parlours, but some of the original legs remain, wending through forests, rice paddies and historic wooden villages. In some places, the trail has scarcely changed in hundreds of years, and is as close to authentic old Japan as you'll ever find.

You'll still need to pay taxes and fuel charges for your flight, which usually come out to between $5 to $25 per flight. Naturally, compared to the normal ticket price of $400 (domestic) or $1,200 (international), these taxes and fuel charges are a steal.
