Omg the Gion festival was pretty hectic! Glad you got out of the heat and had that delicious meal! It looks like a great deal for 2,500 yen. That piece of yam that looks like sashimi would’ve made me pretty sad though 😂 I thought it was a big block of tuna!

@julietai7465 11 месяцев назад

Love the presentation of food in Japan. That’s ART! (And, I don’t mean “something artistic”.😂) And, the food is so healthy too! Thank you for filming on such a hot day and in such a crowded place. 🙏 Take care not to get sunburn or dehydrated! ❤

8:52 OMG! That hand inside the fridge really gave me a fright! 😂 And it’s a good decision that you didn’t push yourself in that crowd and intense heat. 👍 But thank you for coming back to show us the Gion Festival ❤ As always, thank you so much Rion and take care always! God bless! 😊🙏 PS: 2:52 this is so beautiful ❤❤❤

What an amazing video, dear Rion. This Gion festival to be watched through your eyes is super unique. I know how much you are interested in various foods around the festival stalls but this time it was even too packed for you to enjoy there anything of it. Too many people, less hidration in a super hot and obviously humid day, lower blood preasure due to the fact you were hungry - all this caused your dizzyness - in a way 1st stage of a heat stroke. I am so glad that you acted wisely to return into spaces under AC and to find a nice place to eat a yummy lunch which helped to your total recovery. The evening atmosphere of the festival is really even more interesting. These floats are huge and pure craftmanship masterpieces. I admire the people playing drums so high above creating a special mood. I do not think it would be pleasant for you to visit up there for it is a wooden construction - probably rather shaky. I am so glad that we might have experienced Kyoto in your previous videos more imtimate fot less crowded. Gion festival is obviously a "must see" one so that everybody is visiting and I am grateful to you for showing the whole atmosphere of it. Congrats and thanks for your hard work. I do appreciate it very much. GAAOOO!!!!

Rion- I’m a mom helping my teenager and his older brother plan their 1st trip to Japan. I’ve been struggling to help with creating an itinerary that includes Gion Festival. After watching this I don’t think it’s something they’d enjoy. Too crowded and hot! I love your personality and wish you all the best! Thanks!

@tns-rox 11 месяцев назад

The scenic view of Kyoto surrounded by the hills was a great sight, and the Gion Festival floats were beautiful. I would like to visit there one day. So many people everywhere, and I was glad to see them enjoying the festival. Your lunch looked meccha oishi. Arigatougozaimasu, Rion, for braving the heat to film this virtual tour of Kyoto. Your videos are always an adventure.👍

2:52 Kyoto Skyway is cool, you can see the whole of Kyoto from the transparent viewing platform😍👍! Celebrating the Gion Festival in the summer is crowded and hard work! Listening to that taiko drumming, bells and shakuhachi is great with beautiful lanterns and feeling the sacred ritual! 8:12 Thank you Rion, let us know that there are some unique activities for the Gion Festival, which can give us a deep understanding of the culture of Kyoto. Oh! Rion only ate cereal for breakfast and didn’t eat it until after 3 o’clock in the afternoon, no wonder you want to be dizzy, fortunately, this 2,500JPY rich Hana set meal😋👍, there are a variety of side dishes in one meal, and you can already eat the local delicacies of Kyoto😄. Rion is allergic to white fish, so it’s best to avoid eating it as much as possible, it will be bad for your health! 29:42 Right! looks so Kyoto 😁⛩️👏! There are many food stalls on the street hawking, making the atmosphere of the festival to the highest point, and you can feel the unique style of Japanese festivals! Thank you so much Rion for the summer Kyoto Gion Matsuri video, thank you! Fortunately, the filming was successfully completed, and I appreciate your professionalism 🫡GaÖ🤝!

@carladavid784 11 месяцев назад

@paripitiffany 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for braving the heat & the crowds 🥺 (so that we don’t have to 😅🙏). The festival was beautiful & fun, but Kyoto wasn’t high on my list until I saw that leaf-shaped summer squash. Then, I also thought “I love Kyoto!” and now, I can’t wait to eat lunch there, too. 😋 (And I also can’t help but admire the station’s architecture. 🤩) Let’s keep checking off bucket list items! ✅P.S. So blessed-no food allergies, not lactose intolerant, and could handle spicy foods. 😂

Btw … Thanks for the explanation about the ramen street smell, lol. Now I understand. 😂 I thought something was wrong.

I only ever see those food stalls and activities in anime and tv. Even though it was super crowded, I will gladly go back! Hope to bump into you in one of them 😊

@purpleglasses731 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for braving the burning heat and crowds to show us the festival! In this type of weather, make sure you pre-hydrate to the max with cool electrolyte packed drinks at breakfast before heading out so later you'll be less likely to have a mild heat stroke. Maybe grab some cold packs too. I'm glad you took that break before you felt worst. Lunch looked great. Take care and please be safe. 😊

@purpleglasses731 11 месяцев назад

@paripitiffany Yesss 💯 it's so true 🤗❤️ Yeah if you don't hydrate ahead of time, when you go out, you'll sweat out the little fluids you have. The majority of our bodies are made up of water. The heat has been more brutal this year tbh.

Your food looked amazing but please take care of yourself! If you feel dizzy turn the camera off, get some water, take a rest in some ac, and get a snack or a meal. We understand. This summer heat is no joke, and with crowds it makes it feel so much worse. The Gion Festival definitely looks interesting though! I love the large floats. The one with all the lanterns reminds me of something out of Spirited Away 😊

Rion Ishida I have a solution for your allergy . It is likely stress induced or related to physical exercise like walking a lot . This will sometimes amplify chances of allergic reactions . So you might want to watch out for that and not eat raw white fish when stressed or when you did. physical activity because then it might trigger . Try that and hopefully it solves your problem

Rion next time you don’t have to wait till you get dizzy looking for food place to eat. There’s tons of street food that you can try and share the experience with us. That’s the fun of being in the festival is to try all those street foods than to sit in the restaurant. Just saying.

I was also wondering why it is that way now. But i heard fromy my Doctor that Allergies can change for the good or for worst over the follwoing years and yeah might be the same with your allergie. But i also recommend to visit a doctor for allergies especially in your case....
