Visit Little Edo, Kawagoe, Saitama || Exploring Japan Series
Hey, welcome to my another japan travel vlog 2018 (bahasa Indonesia) in Exploring Japan Series
This time, my apato friends and I (mba andri, nia and elita)went to an old town called little Edo in Kawagoe, Saitama Japan, an interesting place in Tokyo. There, we saw bell of time tower (toki no kane) when it is ringing. we also visit some temples in there. well, i felt guiIty for not wearing yukata and not liking the famous purple sweet potato soft ice cream. not to mention for could not afford to take jinrinkisha, japanese unique traditional vehicle. Still, it is another great time to remember. feels like time traveling to the past.
Thanks to Nia, Elita and mba Andri who support me during filming this videos. lets exploring japan again next week.
Thank you for watching and please have a good day all.
Cheers
Irma

JAPANESE STREET FOOD at Kawagoe Matsuri - Japan vlog
A tour of Japanese street food stalls at Kawagoe Matsuri, a Japanese festival less than an hour from Tokyo.
I couldn't believe how many food stands there were - and a huge variety of types of street food, including yakisoba, sweet potato fries, kara age (fried chicken), choco bananas and lots more. It was a treat to try them all, and see what type of food they have at a Japanese festival.

World's Most Beautiful Starbucks ★ ONLY in JAPAN
Where is the world's most beautiful Starbucks? Japan, of course.
In Toyama city's Kansui Park is a shop that has won awards for it's design, but it's also the location that makes it beautiful. Those big windows overlook a lake in a park, the building resting upon grass, surrounded by sakura trees. The fresh air off the sea of Japan and the beautiful sunsets over the nearby Japanese Alps can't be forgotten. I could sip a hot cappuccino all day here.
But wait! Starbucks newest shop in Kyoto (Ninenzaka) is a traditional tea house that looks centuries old! It's hard to tell it's a Starbucks until you see the sign. Inside, it's like going back in time. You definitely feel Kyoto's historical vibe sitting on tatami sipping macha tea ... lattes. This may also be the world's most beautiful shop.
Hakodate in Hokkaido is home to what many consider to be the coziest Starbucks in the world. It's got a fireplace, wide open rooms and stairs, natural hard wood floors and a beautiful deck that overlooks Hakodate Bay. It's super cozy!
Yeah, visiting Starbucks is certainly one attraction for many visitors because it seems more than just a chain coffee shop. To me, it a reflection of the world around us -- and a really good cup of coffee.
THIS IS NOT A SPONSORED VIDEO.
I made this episode from a suggestion from a viewer in 2016 :) I also like Starbucks Japan because it's the only cafe chain that is non-smoking and has excellent coffee.
LOCATIONS featured in this video:
★ Toyama Kansui Park
★ Hakodate Bayside
☆ Shibuya Tsutaya
☆ Omotesando / Harajuku Tokyu Plaza
☆ Okachimachi
☆ Tokyo Yaesu Sakura Dori
☆ Akihabara
☆ Ueno Onishi Parek
★ Kyoto Nineizaka Yasaka Chaya
Historical note: The first Starbucks in Japan was opened in Ginza in 1996 and is located here.
It is being renovated until August 2017.
