I live in the countryside, full of trees and hills. The vending machine with ice cream yes please. You should have rode that panda, have some fun.😂😂.Thank you for the video and as always waiting for the next video. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    Love this idea! My husband and I use to own a 40' container that was made into a hydroponic farm, where we grew several varieties of leafy greens for our community, in Canada. It was great to be one of the first container farmers in our area. It would be wonderful if more countries utilized them for hotels, like Japan!

    I remember this place from another video! still so amazing that hotel rooms are containers! Talk about making use of things! I wish other nations would learn from Japan, and reuse things like this! The foods looked yum as always! Also I have lived in both Urban and countryside here.....both have their different advantages. Like in the urban areas, we have great internet, things are close, but it's noisy (that does not bother me though because I am deaf...) in the countryside, it's peaceful, but we dont get great internet, things are far away and not in walking distance, a car is a must have...so each have their flaws and good things. Thank you for another wonderful and amazing video, please stay safe and wonderful in your travels dear friend.

    Cargo containers have become a great source for cheap habitation all over the world.
    They are easyto make and can be transported anywhere,making them into hotels or even houses has been very common since the late days of the 40's.
    There are several "apartment" blocks made from containers where I live,and there have been many made on Japan for about 50 years.
    That hotel is unusual however,the containers are still movable,that's new.

    It's such a neat concept but they could never do something like this in America. Partly because of the difference in building regulations, and partly because people would be trying to hitch those containers up to their trucks and drive off with them if they weren't permanently secured to the ground.

      @experience_japan I found one I really like. I feel like a lot of places that do ramen here try to make the soup too unique or add strange things to it like cabbage or lots of corn. I prefer a simple pork cutlet ramen with a little nori and sometimes an extra egg!

    The hotel was so nice except for the lack of hot water in your room. It would be great for people w/ kids because they could make as much noise as they want w/out disturbing neighbors. I love the way Japan has little amusement parks that are permanently there. Here, in the USA, those are very rare. Some towns will have a county fair that has amusement park rides and food but only for a week in the whole year. Thanks for the fun video.
