Kofu, Yamanashi, Japan, 甲府市 - Canon 80D - Virtual Trip
Kofu is the capital of Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, about an hour and a half west of Tokyo. It is one of the famous cities in the country for its wine, famous even internationally because it has won many awards. The town of Kôfu lies in a deep valley surrounded by the Japanese Alps and the Oku-chichibu mountain range. One of the assets of the city is its proximity to Mount Fuji: the volcano and other peaks are visible from any point cleared or high in the city, which gives it an added cachet!
Kofu is not really a tourist city, in any case few Western tourists stop there. During our visit we mostly saw Chinese tourists, but oddly we never met them outside the hotel. Kofu is actually a good alternative to Mastumoto or other cities to make a stopover between Tokyo and Kyoto.
The story of Kofu is linked to that of the historical figure Takeda Shingen, the famous general of the sixteenth century who worked for the unification of Japan. It is the father of the warrior who founded the city and the whole Takeda clan has ruled over the region since Kofu. The city celebrates its 500th anniversary in 2019. Several monuments in the city pay tribute to this famous family and we find the graves of the family in different places of the city.

Kofu Castle - Japan | قلعة كوفو - اليابان
Maizuru Castle Park - Kofu, Yamanashi, Japan.
It is a 400 year old historical site. From Edo period (1603 ~ 1868).
A DAY IN KOFU | Kofu, Yamanashi
I finally made it to Kofu, Yamanashi. It was the last stop on my Yamanashi journey and I had one day to see everything.
First up, I went to where Kofu Castle used to be. It's now just a park with some ruins of the castle but there is a great view of the city from the top.
Second, I decided to check out more about Takeda Shingen. He was a daimyo here and his image and name is all over the place. I went to see his statue by the station and shrine.
Finally, I took a bus for almost 50 minutes to Shosenkyo Gorge. I took the ropeway up a mountain to see the view from the top then walked down (part of) the gorge.
Kofu was amazing! It was this blend of rich history and beautiful nature, all under the view of Mt. Fuji.
Much love and happy travels

P.S. Sorry about the wind sound in the audio. Also, I was here on October 9th to give my talk about autumn colours more context.

Kofu Castle in Japan
Hey guys! This video is about the local Japanese fortress/castle in Kofu! It is called Maizuru jou and it has some pretty cool history behind it! I took a lot of video so it's divided between three videos. It's a little slower paced, but I like history so I think it's very interesting! Hope you guys enjoy! :D

Here is Shousenkyou in Kofu, Yamanashi-ken. The towering rock formations and trees sprouting forth from them really fills one's heart with the mysterious beauty of Japan. Seeing these rocks brings to mind traditional ukiyo-e or sumi-e artwork of Japan.

Video by grandma.
A vacation with my grandparents and aunt Jenka in Japan. Very memorable. :) I don't have a yen to spare but I left Japan with so much memories to treasure forever. This was my first stop before going to the United States. I was only 23 with just $500 cash in my pocket to start a life overseas with the help of my grandparents. How time flies!
