@TahitianBlissMeeBee Год назад

i'm so happy to have found your channel!

@dpi209 Год назад

To be honest, I'm most amazed by the old couple who recognized you after over a year and still remember you do videos. With all the people that come through you still stand out :)

@saphcal Год назад

i mean hes not japanese so he does stick out a bit more, so im not too surprised.

@saphcal Год назад

@@Digi123 the point is people native to japan wont see it that way. he doesnt look like them. thats not a bad thing, but it makes him easier to remember because he stands out.

@pinkisflammable Год назад

Now, this is how I'd like to spend my day! Wandering the forest, finding hidden trails and secret shrines. I haven't been to Kyoto yet, but this is 100% on my to-do list when I get there. Absolutely gorgeous! And moss!!!😍

@TokyoLens Год назад

the best way to spend a day~

@ChrisP978 Год назад

Just need to avoid that unmarked death trail 🤣

@With_Me_JAPAN Год назад

Everything you captured such as beautiful green moss, wet ground and the stream down the path makes me realize how cold it was but also exciting adventure you went through! Little snow left on the ground makes amazing contact with the red torii gates too!😊✨

@TokyoLens Год назад

honestly such a great trip to go on!! 10/10 recommend this!!

@marisnaanjanikusumadewi4823 Год назад

So extremely

@ArmouredPhalanx Год назад

I did this trail accidentally back in 2019. It was my first visit to Fushimi Inari and the main path up with all the gates was absolutely packed with tourists. I stumbled across the entrance to the trail and decided to follow it up to the top. It was a very happy accident because the forest scenery and hidden shrines were beautiful and there were so few other people on the trail that it was probably the most alone (in a good way) I felt on the entire trip. By the time I made it to the top, most of the crowds had cleared out and I could take my time going back down through the popular Torii gate path, so I still got to experience that, too. Ultimately it turned out to be one of my favourite days of the whole trip. Couldn't recommend doing this more. But spiders... oh, the spiders... if you're arachnophobic at all, be warned (not an issue here, fortunately, but they're everywhere and huge).

@denizday7785 Год назад

This may not be helpful for you, but whenever I walk a trail with lots of spider webs, I try to find a stick with a few branches to wave in front of my face as I walk like a magic wand. It probably looks weird (not that there are many people around on webby trails to judge), but it cuts down on spider webs in your face by at least 90%!

@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369 Год назад

All the secrets, passageways, even hidden hikes, cities with history are so awesome

@TokyoLens Год назад

honestly love it~

@onebladeprop Год назад

Norm you are getting me so excited about my trip in two weeks. My first time visiting Japan my friend and I explored some of the exact same places you showed in this video! We had no idea where we were going and just stumbled upon them. Your camera work really conveys the beauty of those places and reminds me of how special it felt being there.

@TokyoLens Год назад

I hope you have an absolutely spectacular trip!!! I am sure it will be!

@onebladeprop Год назад

@@TokyoLens It was a spectacular trip!

@davidgensemer502 Год назад

When my friends and I visited Fushimi Inari in 2017 we found those trails by accident and just wandered around for hours exploring all of the little shrines and the bamboo forest, one of the highlights of the trip!

@CharonXul Год назад

Wow, Kyoto is more beautiful every time I see it! Also your guide was so knowledgeable! Thanks for taking us along Norm 🇯🇵

@TokyoLens Год назад

Thanks for coming along for it~

@deadlypants2176 Год назад

Thank you for showing off the remarkable country that is Japan. I hope to take my parents on a trip there once I graduate from high school. ❤

@fadel_rama Год назад

Hidden places are just delightful, and give magical aura around them

Amazing to see a secret passage to a popular spot!!!

@TokyoLens Год назад

loved it!

@luac5829 Год назад

The amount of information Akiko provided and all the curiosities from the different segments of the Fushimi Inari were a treat to learn about! Thanks for all the content

@TokyoLens Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it! and thank you so much for being here~

@raquelhoffmann4 Год назад

I can't explain how happy I get seeing you just overjoyed to hike there, exploring a new side of one of your favourite places. Way to go, Norm! ❤

@Zombie_Spaceman Год назад

Absolutely gorgeous hike! Thank you for sharing, Norm! Can't wait for the next adventure!

@dblock5one4 Год назад

I love how this video not only showcased the beautiful location you visited but also provided a deep cultural experience. That's so interesting that depending on what side you entered the gate from you also had to enter using the associated sides leg first

@kathrynlebda780 Год назад

Hidden hiking trail to Fushimi Inari?! This is what I am here for! Bamboo trial?? I've added this to my list. It's so hard to find stillness in Kyoto and this totally ticked that box for me.

@TokyoLens Год назад

honestly every part of this had me smiling inside and out~!

@kathrynlebda780 Год назад

I was smiling through this whole video too! I wish I had known about this trail when my sister was with me. She commented on how crowded Kyoto was at the time (this was like 10 years ago) and I wish I could have shown here this trail! And you saw the previous store owner! How magical!

@Selfibi Год назад

Another great video, thank you for taking us with you on these adventures!

@sahiljanak3288 Год назад

I love it when you do these kinds of videos, japan just seems like a place out of a fantasy. Its really fun to learn new things about the customs and the shrines and hopefully i would be able to experience this myself one day. Thank you Norm for making these wonderful videos! Stay blessed!

@Caboladk Год назад

Thank you so much for this video! It was absolutely awesome to see this hidden gem of a trail! And that bamboo forest! WOW!

@Embarrassed_Mess_ Год назад

Wow! What a beautiful area! I would love to see this with my own eyes some day. It’s magical places like these that have me completely enthralled by Japan and it’s culture. Also, so amazing to learn new customs from locals. I absolutely love opportunities like that! 😻 Thank you for sharing your amazing experience with us!

@TokyoLens Год назад

@naturalflow157 Год назад

My friend, thank you so much for getting out there and sharing this with us. Truly, this is exactly something I needed, as I feel like in the past few years I lost all the energy and spirit for adventures. Truly an amazing video and thank you again. Wishing you all the best. :)

@Kimnyan Год назад

Love how happy you get seeing new things!! Thank you for another great video!! ☺️

@OverdrivenDom Год назад

Yay! More hidden Kyoto videos! Didn't know about this secret path through Fushimi Inari, but that bamboo grove looks amazing. Gotta try to find that when I'm finally in Kyoto in a few months!

@SandstormCloudwave Год назад

Just seeing this brings back so many memories of my time at Fushimi Inari in 2016. Thanks for showing us, Norm!

@k_redacted5353 Год назад

It was so fun to see you be the one shown around for a change! Especially with Akiko being such a wonderful guide! 🤩

I actually came back from a long hike when you uploaded the video so I went straight to sleep, good thing I remembered to come back and check it because this is an absolute gem that I will save for when maybe I'll be able to visit the place.

@buzz-bas Год назад

Always enjoy watching the hiking around the more hidden or unknown paths during dinner. So cool to find out back paths like these exist around these well known tourist spots.

@lostinjapanglish5202 Год назад

Just beautiful, nature loving people know how amazing is the feeling being in a forest, love it

theres a whole extra set of videos in the description with even MORE hidden spots in Kyoto!!

@IeatPiggiesForLife Год назад

This is so awesome, I was in fushimi Inari in 2019 and I found myself in a very similar hiking trail by mistake, it was one of the most beautiful sites I’ve had the pleasure to behold, and I find myself going through the pictures every few months

@BakaTaco Год назад

I'm late, but I just wanted to say that this video was absolutely incredible to watch. Seeing the "secret side" of Japan's most famous shrine was fantastic. The sights were great, and Akiko was such an amazing tour guide. She knows her stuff and deserves all of the praise. Great video, Norm, and thanks for continuously amazing me with all of your content. Makes me want to go back to Japan EVEN MORE, if that's even possible! I share your feelings about Japan, and one day, I'd love to go from Wakkanai to Okinawa.

@Trentus86 Год назад

This is an absolutely beautiful area. Fushimi Inari is already great but love the magic of hidden shrines and bamboo forests

Kyoto has been on my list for a decade. The stairs, the historical architecture, the other-worldly vibe…just so beautiful. Thanks for taking us through. ❤️

@TokyoLens Год назад

and its about 10,000% better when you get out of the main tourist areas to spots like this hidden trail!!

@TheJaegersHunt Год назад

My First time in Kyoto, I went on one of the trails that leads from the main path because it was stupidly busy. had an amazing peaceful hike by myself, while everyone else had to stop every for often for people taking photos. There seems to heaps of these trails and they are all surprisingly quiet and scenic compared to the main trail

@Unknown-qq1qh Год назад

Always gotta love walking around in nature

@briank8679 Год назад

Oh man, this is so cool! And I love how excited you get about this stuff. I need to remember to approach the world with a little bit of wonder just like you, Norm.

@vintatsh Год назад

I've noticed the music is always so fitting in your videos, really creates a sense of wonder and beauty.

@ShawnChang6453 Год назад

@pedro66596 Год назад

im speechless i have been to Fushimi Inari but just walking on the forest with a different point of view of the shrine is crazy, also how luck you are you got to see the priest doing his routine, also loved the tour guide Akiko the small details she explained and the background it just took the tour to another level thanks!!!

@nikolauscharlton2996 Год назад

i just really love how the transition from like urban area where there is house and stuff which is beautiful and then there is a hidden hiking path behind 1 of the most beautiful shrine in japan, and then we got to see like the monk(correct me if im wrong) praying near the small waterfall place its just soo relaxing and beautiful, and we got to see the old couple again from 2 years ago on your documentary video i really love this thank you for sharing this norm and of course akiko (sorry if misheard) too, for guiding us to this magical place!! otsukare i currently watching your older videos its kinda weird seeing how different you are in recent video lol its good tho im having a good time haha

@giveapplefritters Год назад

Absolutely magical and your choice of music almost got me crying with how beautiful everything was lol. Really hope I get a chance to visit someday!

@Spiritlife01 Год назад

Just gorgeous. Thank you.

I’m so happy to know there’s other trails at the shrine, AND a different bamboo forest, so I can get those bamboo forest shots and not have to worry about anxiety. 👌 📸 Definitely gonna look into Magical Trip tours!

such a lovely video Norm. Also that tour guide was awesome! :D

@Stormcrow89 Год назад

Oh thank you so much for this video tour. I love watching Tokyo Lens and this is my favorite video so far. I may never be able to afford to come to Japan. It has been my dream for a long time. As the two of you walked through that beautiful forest, I felt as if I was there. The shrines, the trees, everything seems so refreshing. I will watch this video again and again. Thank you!
