Super OLD & SECRET Temple in Tokyo | Japan's Hidden Travel Spot Jindaiji 深大寺
Jindaiji temple is a hidden temple in Tokyo, not only is it one of the biggest temples in Tokyo, but it is also the second oldest! This place is crazy beautiful!
For more info on Jindaiji go to their homepage here:
The site is in Japanese but there is an English option for you guys.
This isn't just one temple, Jindaiji consists of an old style traditional town (that sells a very special type of soba that is famous all around Japan). It actually has 6 individual temples that make up the entire area of Jindaiji. It can take you about 2 hours to get around everything.
On top of that there is a botanical garden that you can visit that will run you only 200 yen to enter and will take you an extra 3 hours to get around. Definitely a great tourism spot to put on your travel itinerary!
Getting to the area is made quite easy by the cheap bus ran by the Keio line that can pick you up from either Tsutsujigaoka, Shibasaki, or Chofu's train stations. If you are looking for things to do in Tokyo, then look no further than this.
This is one Josh's favorite places to visit in Japan, it makes for a great hidden travel spot that you can show off to your friends. The major appeal of this place is the beautiful natural environment; making it an amazing photography spot for pros and amateurs alike! Definitely an Instagram hot spot.

JAPAN VLOG/ MY RODE REEL 2019
A quick snapshot of our family holiday in Japan
Why Japanese Live So Long ★ ONLY in JAPAN
So you want to live to be 100? The answers to living a long and happy life may come from Japan which has the longest average life expectancy in the world (83.84 years) and where 2 million people are over the age of 90. Believe it or not, 6 of the top 10 oldest people alive are from Japan including Nabi Tajima of Kagoshima who is 117 years old and the last human alive born in the 19th century!
How did so many Japanese get to live so long?
What are some of the things Japanese do right?
In this episode, John travels to Tottori Prefecture to the area around Mt Daisen where his friend Tomiko-san gives him some advice about how to live a long life and how she's lived to be 106 years old and still working on the farm!
Her secret?
Tofu.
She started to make tofu in the 1950s when doctors said residents had to reduce high blood pressure. She made her own tofu for her family and her diet combined with good habits including staying busy and working hard have strengthened her mind and body. She still walks and writes tanka poetry.
I also ask Mr. Seiichi, my 97 year old Japanese neighbor his secret and hear from a Shinto priest about his thoughts and personal experiences with living a very long and happy life in Japan.
It's impossible to say exactly what has led to Japan having the longest average life expectancy in the world but these things may help:
★ Green Tea
★ Less fatty foods
★ Seafood
★ Fermented foods
★ Bath culture / Hot Springs & Onsen
★ Smaller portions
★ Education on personal responsibility
★ National safety / low crime rates
★ Respect for the Elderly (It's a national holiday too!)
★ DNA
Special thank you to Daisen Town & Yonago City in Tottori Prefecture for the help. Daisen is celebrating its 1300th anniversary this year and you're invited to the party in June 2018!

Beautiful Kyoto: Hozugawa River Boat Ride (Hozugawa Kudari) [4K]
For more information on boat launch times, which change depending on the season and day, check the Hozugawa Kudari’s official English website here:
A trip to Kyoto wouldn’t be complete without exploring the city’s gorgeous natural scenery, and one of the best ways to do this is to take a short train trip to the neighboring city of Kameoka and board the Hozugawa Kudari boat ride! This popular river route has a rich history dating back more than 400 years and offers visitors a chance to enjoy a leisurely and entertaining boat ride through one of Kyoto’s most beautiful areas.
Taking approximately two hours to travel 16 kilometers down the Hozugawa river between Kameoka and the well-known sightseeing area Arashiyama, the Hozugawa Kudari boat ride costs 4,100 yen for adults and 2,700 yen for children aged 4-12. Though most of the river provides a smooth, calming journey, there are a few rapids that supply some additional excitement along the way, and depending on the season you can enjoy cherry blossoms, vivid greenery, fall colors, and even snow! With the trip narrated by jaunty boatmen ready to point out local ravine wildlife, historical spots, comically shaped rocks, good photograph spots, and the finer points of boat steerage, you’ll be in good hands until you reach land once more.
