Travel videos

Yet another travel video channel. It's just me enjoying video editing and loving to travel. Why not combine and share ? Get a glimpse of different places from a subjective view !Here is my YouTube channel, as a hobbyist : http://www.youtube.com/@5mintravel-yas

Kamakura, town of a giant Buddha but not only

One hour train away from Tokyo, Kamakura is a very charming coastal city, well known for his 13 meters height bronze-made Bouddha. However, there are also several beautiful temples and shrines.

• Shichirigahama beach

Kyoto, dive into traditional Japan

Former capital of Japan, from the 8th to the 19th century, previously named Heian-kyo, Kyoto remains one of the most important city regarding the traditional, cultural and religious heritage. One can visit numerous temples and shrines, as the city was spared from bombing during the Second World War. One can have the sensation of traveling into the past at the heart of a traditional Japan. Kyoto might be the most touristic city in Japan. Seeing the beauty and authenticity of Kyoto, we can easily understand why. However, all this crowd hinders the quiet and serene experience one could have expected... Kyoto is also the home of the Nintendo company and Mario! Some places in the video:

• Kyoto Railway station
• Ryozen Kannon temple
• Gion quarter
• Toji temple
• Kodaiji temple
• Fushimi inari
• Kiyomizu-dera temple
• Adashino Nenbutsu-ji temple
• Otagi Nenbutsu-ji temple
• Gio-ji temple
• Pontocho street
• Teramachi street
• 100-meter-long Super Mario mural at Shijo-dori underpass (temporary I guess…)
