Japan's original country name "NIPPON”means "the land under the sun" , but another name is "YAMATO(WA)” , meaning “Peacefully Harmony among People and Nature”. So Japan's name means “the Land under the Sun” and” the Land of "Great Harmony of People and Nature,” The history of Japan is very old, about 2,000 years since the Emperor's reign, but humans began to live in villages and communities in this island nation about 14,000 years ago, during “the JOMON pottery” culture. (That's 30,000 years ago, if you count the Neolithic period.) Surrounded on all sides by the sea and geographically isolated from the Eurasian continent in the Pacific Ocean, this island nation has a warm and humid climate and is blessed with abundant underground clear water resources, diverse vegetation, and fishery resources. For this reason, people have lived here for tens of thousands of years, enjoying nature and living in peace with it. However, while the natural environment of this island nation is rich, it is also harsh, with both light and dark sides. Since ancient times, the people of this land have lived in peace by respecting human harmony and working together as a group, and have shared and enjoyed the blessings of nature by overcoming many harsh and severe natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and typhoons by sharing wisdom and working together as a group. This is because this island nation has a harsh natural environment that cannot be overcome by the power of one individual. The ancient Japanese name of the country, "Yamato" or "Wa" (great harmony and peace)、 represents the desire and reality of people trying to survive in the unique natural environment of an island nation, which is different from the dry and stable land of the Eurasian continent. And it is in this ancient Japanese country name that the essence of Japanese culture and the source and secret of the emergence of a unique Japanese culture different from the cultures of other Asian countries on the continent are hidden.
Wow!! That is so beautiful, thank you for sharing with us 🙏 do you have a favourite place to visit in Japan? Have you visited the snow monkeys before?! If you have, what did you think?
Oh wow! We haven’t been to those parts! We’re in Europe right now but are hoping to go back to Japan very soon. There is still so much to explore. After your trip, please write us and let us know where you would recommend we go!
Yes, I think you were very lucky that you were being able to meet with them at there. because a few weeks ago, no one could see them at this same place. before the Christmas day will come, this nature God might gave you this watching them at there.
We were very lucky!! We actually went on the 1st of match this year which is late winter and we got really lucky that it snowed while we were there and the night before. We would def recommend going in the middle of winter for your best chance to see them soak!! Have you visited them?
In fact, I did not go to there to see them . yes, I may think many Japanese people know very well about that Monkey goes to the bath very often in winter season. because we are understanding very much that Monkey has the same think about hot water makes them relax very well. we may be knowing that Monkey has the same feeling as human who goes to hot warter very oftern in winter season. so, we do not want to go to there to see them very much. but for foreighner , it may be different thinking about Monkey with Japanese . so, foreigner tourist may want to see them very much to know about Monkeys life in the hot sping water.
Absolutely, we highly recommend going into Yamaguchi and staying at one of the Onsen hotels if you are going to see the monkeys. Have you been? We are trying to put together a video of the Onsen town but the footage we have is limited.
@@ToExploring Yamaguchi means Yamaguchi prefecture? I am Japanese and visit Nagano so many times, but never been to snow Monkey mountain. Your program makes me feel to need to enjoy more Japan!
We stayed in Yamanochi, the onsen town and highly recommend it! The town is really beautiful and there is a fun bar there too. We’re hopefully going to do a video on yamanochi so stay tuned! There is also a ryokan right near the snow monkey park but we’re not sure how exactly you book it. When you visit the snow monkeys please write to us and let us know how it went. Remember to go in the peak of winter!
Yes regional Japan is beautiful!! We are exploring Europe now but would like to return to Japan to explore its lesser known and travelled regional parts in the future.
@@ToExploring My recommendation is Yakushima. It is registered as a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site. It is a mysterious island where ancient virgin forests remain.
Agree! And it’s important for tourist places to help animals, not coerce them into being a tourist attraction. Lots of work to be done to get us to that point.
Your Japanese memories will last forever as one page of your lifetime.
It's an amazing country, we hope to return sometime soon and see more!
私の大好きな場所です。栃木県民ですが、もう１０回以上行きました。こんなに近くで野生のサルを見れる所は世界中探しても無いでしょうね。またこの方のように外国の方がたくさん来ています。そしてその方達が持ってるカメラがほぼ全部日本製なんですよね。それを見ると誇らしくなります。
Agreed, we have never seen anything like this before! Highly recommended for foreigners to visit.
もう雪が積もってるんやねー。素敵な動画をありがとう、
You should definitely go! Be sure to stay in Yamanouchi when you visit! Let us know how your trip goes 🐒
Let us know if you decide to visit and what you thought!!
Wow, so cool. I can't wait to go 😊
You won't regret it, I hope you have a great time!

素晴らしい記録だね。日本の冒険を楽しみにしています。
Thank you so much!! Where are you off to on your Japan adventure??
鎌倉、江ノ島に行きます。
Oh wow! We haven’t been to those parts! We’re in Europe right now but are hoping to go back to Japan very soon. There is still so much to explore. After your trip, please write us and let us know where you would recommend we go!
鎌倉は1180年、日本の都があった所です。京都と違った意味でロマンがあります。是非、行って見て下さい。外国人観光客もやや少なめですから楽しめると思います。私は、休日ごとに散策しています。美しい名所が沢山あります。
Thank you! We will!

So cool! What a great experience ❤
Thank you so much! We were so lucky to get to see this monkey🐒♨️
未だにここが有名というのがありがたいです😊
Yes it's definitely worth visiting if you are travelling to Japan!
Monkey Business is popular in Japan (Local people is making money with them )
Yes it is definitely a popular tourist attraction, we highly recommend going!
動物との共存には、お金がかかりますから、観光地化するしかないんです。そうしないと、餌を探して畑を荒らしたりして、殺処分の声があがってきますから。
Hope that both of you have experienced hot springs also like monkeys!

結構前の、Mac の OS で スノーレオパルト ってのがあったな。。。
That makes us feel old haha!
Interesting fact: 75% of Japan's land is made up of mountains and virgin forests, making it a country with an extremely rich natural environment.
Yes regional Japan is beautiful!! We are exploring Europe now but would like to return to Japan to explore its lesser known and travelled regional parts in the future.

日出ずる国がニッポンです、互いに助け合う国ニッポンです🙇
This is so beautiful and so true! We love the spirit of the Japanese people and the beauty of the Japanese land. 🫶❤️🇯🇵
人間と動物との共存が出来るように、他の所も観光地化してほしいな。餌を探して動物は悪さをするから、餌付けして畑を荒らさないようにするべき。動物との共存には、お金がかかるかるから、人間が頑張らないと。

露天風呂に入って😂日本人だね
Haha you actually can stay and take a bath at the Ryokan nearby!
