I went to a small onsen town at the end of the winter | Japan travel vlog

- Relaxing in onsen (hot springs) is one of Japanese people's favorite winter pastimes. It warms the cold body and relieves stress and body aches or such.
Onsen spring up all over Japan, and there are many onsen towns with hotels, restaurants, and other facilities associated with onsen. They are truly towns for onsen.
People stay at hotels, enjoy the onsen, eat delicious food, go back to the onsen, then buy souvenirs.
I realized that I had not been to such a place for a while. At the end of winter. Soon it would be too warm to go to Onsen. I hurriedly booked a hotel.
Among many choices, I chose Unazuki Onsen in Toyama Prefecture. If coming from Tokyo, take the Shinkansen bullet train to Kurobe Unazuki Onsen Station, then transfer to the Toyama Local Railway and take a local train for about 30 minutes.
It is a quiet town in the mountains.
Since Kanazawa is very close, I stopped by Kenrokuen Garden in Kanazawa before heading to Unazuki Onsen.
It was a wonderful trip.
Oh, by the way, although not mentioned in the video, Unazuki Onsen Station is 100 years old this year!

それからさんの動画を見たらいつも心が落ち着きます。他のyoutuberさんにはない穏やかでセンチメンタルな感じがとても好きです！応援してます！
It's always a pleasant surprise when a new SorekaraMelancholy (remember than name?) video appears in my feed. It's got everything I love about your content: nice camera work and drone shots, great music and a slow almost pensive pace. I'm actually visiting Japan (finally!) in two weeks time and I've booked a nice ryokan in Hakone, another onsen town. Not sure what it's like relaxing in a hot spring in warm spring weather but I'm eager to find out.
Hello. Happy to once again view your quietly and very enjoyable video. I look forward to the next.
What a wonderfoul place, thanks for sharing this with us, Ryo. Hope you are fine, my friend. God bless you.
You are the reason why I have started vlogging. So thank you! 🥰
Your videos produce so many things for me, I could spend hours watching them without getting tired, it is a mixture of peace and melancholy that makes my heart happy.
Japan is an absolutely wonderful country.
This video was uploaded at such perfect timing when I'm currently working but also recovering from being unwell 🤍🤍 I've decided I need to travel to Japan at one point in my life, just so I can get away from everything and enjoy the serenity that Japan holds.
The way you captured the mountains, the bridge, and town... 👏🏼
Thank you Ryo, for your hard work on sharing another beautiful video. Your videos feel like they're from a fairytale and a place for me to escape momentarily to find some peace. 🙏🏻
Take care of yourself, and I can't wait for more of your videos in the future.
Thanks and take care😭
So well done... and you make me laugh... "couples who want to create memories".... ! It is good to see these places, but I worry that they are dying out... so few young people around.
The charm of Japanese local town is really something. I can really feel the calmness of the area while watching the videos. Hope i can visit them in the future... Thanks for this nice video!
thanks for sharing this place. makes me want to a quiet cozy town in japan to unwind~
Finally!! You’re back
Thank you for beautiful video🤩
These videos of yours makes me return to your channel every once and twice a month i enjoy every video of yours and wish i get to travel in all of these places you have shown us they are beitifull 😍please keep uploading such videos
Ryo, we haven't seen you for awhile. I hope all is well, and I'm sure all your other regular viewers do as well.
You bring such a warm and cosy atmosphere to your videos, they are a work of art!
Incredible town. I would love to live here.
And Sakura is here!
Japan is the most beautiful country on earth.
Ahhh, this already brings back memories! I went for the first time to Japan in January, and seeing old onsen towns and Kanazawa was really a great experience :)
Dude where were you ...! After a long days it's a best gift videos I seen . What a place dude . It's almost like a watching a movie .you gave best details . Don't wait us this long for another new video with exciting and exploring city or village any thing is pleasurable to watch your videos 🎉. Keep exploring and have a good time and health .
Arigato 🙏.
UGH!!! Japan is too beautiful....I can't take it!!!!!
I hope so long,thank.
This is one of the awaited videos, though. Need to visit this when i go back to Japan.
Always love the atmosphere you bring to your videos! It always astonish me how photogenic Japan as a country seems to be - from the bustling city to the idyllic countryside. As always another great video!
those drone shots, crying!😭. can't wait for more of your videos, Ryo 🤍
You've done it again, my friend! In my opinion, you are undoubtedly the best creator of Japan-related content.
I doubt it myself, but thanks! hahaha
@@sorekaratravel4533 We all doubt ourselves all the time :) Keep up the good work!
I really liked this place when I went a few years ago. There’s just something special about the old trains, quiet train stations and tiny little onsen town in the middle of the mountains
I really needed the feeling of serenity that only your videos can inspire today. I can go on with my day much happier now, thank you! It also made me look forward to appreciating much smaller things on my own travels :)
I really enjoy your style of film making. It’s very calming, always a good way to end the long day
thankyou for capturing the view for us to see❤
This is so therapeutic. I was actually in Japan last year around November. I spent two weeks there, travelled to Tokyo,Osaka,Kyoto and Fukuoka. Next time I'd like to stay longer and go to rural areas, take more train trips and just enjoy the atmosphere anywhere I go. I need to see more of the quiet life. Please upload more vids and thank you!
I've been watching your videos for a few years now. I love them. Thank you so much for sharing your travels!
Thank you for watching!
The rural towns have a special charm.
I visited Takayama and Nagiso area 2 weeks ago. Won't trade them with the crowded touristy places.
Next time I like to explore Nagano.
I see you post a new video, I click on it immediately.
Always wish you the best. Thank you for sharing
The most relaxing channel on youtube !!
Good to see you again in your vlog. Unbelievably, I like this place. Please upload your vlog often. Thanks. Have a good weekend!
love your filming! it was very relaxing, keep up your hard work! i look forward to seeing more of your videos
Hey there, hope you are doing well! I remember very clearly when I came across your channel in early 2021, it really felt as if I had discovered a hidden gem and used to be so happy whenever you posted a new video; the thing I loved the most was the tune that played in the beginning along with the scribble "Sorekara Melancholy". Sadly, life got in the way, and I couldn't keep up with your channel, and now more than 2 years later, at 2 AM in the night, I suddenly remembered about your channel and just binged all the videos again. I was transported back to the good days of 2021, and I really was able to remember the things I felt back then, I thank you for this. Also, I noticed you have privated/removed some of your videos and changed your channel name, I know you must have your own reasons for doing this, but I sure do wish I could watch those videos again.
Your filming style truly is fantastic and every time I watch your videos I feel this immense feeling of nostalgia or 'melancholy' (if you will) for a place that I've never even been to before! Even if it isn't regular, I hope you keep on uploading your absolutely amazing work and I will always be there supporting you!
Once again, thank you very much for your stuff!
Missed your videos! Always so great.
Wonderful, as always. I do miss the old intro music and writing, though! PS. Yours English has improved even further, if I may say so!
Miss you so much. This is one of my awaited videos 🎉 Take care and I will wait for you upload next ! 😆
Great content. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you SO MUCH for uploading! Genuinely missed your updates.😊💕
I love onsen towns, I've really only been to the noboribetsu, kusatsu and Gero onsens though, I did go through Kanazawa though, the gardens are beautiful there.
Now I want to go back to Japan again watching this. I always want to go back to Japan though.
Ryo-san you never know how much you helped shaped my videography style. 🙏 Finally this year my channel is going live.
Though youtube journey is so desperate some time, seeing your videos remind me I should not give up that soon.
P/S: Your videos always bring peace to my soul.
You have back! Yay 🙆
Sick! Amazing stuff! Love your videos! Gives me nostalgia for something I've never experienced.
Thanks for the video… I love your channel so much 😊
It was my dream to travel to Japan - not Tokyo but inner towns to see with my own eyes all that I’d read about. I am a great admirer of Japanese arts and literature (albeit in translation) and am totally fascinated by the Japanese perspective. I watch Japanese shows all the time and seek out Japanese films in international film festivals.
This town that you have videoed for us seems magical. The surrounding mountains remind me of the lower Himalayas in India. The hot springs!!! Is that for the general public?
I fear I would not get a chance to see all this mainly because I can no longer walk great distances and Japan seems to require a lot of walking.
I love your channel and always look forward to seeing what you have recorded for us. 🙏
This is quality content. Lots of love from India ❤
Beautiful video. Felt like I was with you there.
Another lovely vlog! Thanks for sharing!
Cheers from Brazil!
Very interesting to travel with you always! Really appreciate your journeys! : )
Looks amazing
Very similar to Jammu, India
Love from India 🇮🇳🇯🇵
Always look forward to your videos Ryo!!
I really enjoyed this video, very enjoyable 🇯🇵 🇮🇩
These videos always put me in a good mood. Thank you for the hard work!
Bonjour Sorekara ^^
Super ambiance merci ,
Ça tombe bien j'ai froid du coup un peu de chaleur ne peut faire que du bien ;)
Merci ❤
Lol à 12:43 😂 enfin un japonais pas très coincé ❤
Cool de te revoir l'Ami,
Thanks, Ryo for this vlog. Have a great weekend 😊🙏🩺🇯🇵🇵🇭
Thanks for watching! Hope you also have a great weekend!
It's been a while. waiting for this calming video. Thank you so much uploaded again😄
I love the cinematography! And I’ll probably visit some day.. But that place is dead! No people!
Yeah but to be fair I went on a weekday during an unpopular season, which is one of the reasons it looks dead. btw Your comment played perfectly in my mind in Trump's voice. lol
Not just Japan as a whole, not just the places you visited here, but this entire video is beautiful...!
Glad I watched again you therapeutic cinematography its been a while 😊 guess been quite busy lately. Anyways I hope you will reupload your old videos here they are very relaxing to watch though,thats one of the reason I that got interested in your videos ☺️ More Power 💪🏻
Thank you for another enjoyable experience. Japan and Japanese culture is so interesting and inviting!
I needed this, thanks
Very beautiful
I would like to study in Japan in the future. Maybe I will also explore places like this.
Wow - such a beautiful place to visit - Thanks for sharing another great adventure - I will surely visit this place too :)
What a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing this experience with us! I look forward to your next adventure. -Love from the Philippines 🥰
Were you Melancholy? Lovely video. Greetings from Canada.
素晴らしい！
Hi りょ, I hope it's ok that I write your name like that. I discovered your channel just a couple days ago while searching for content related to Japan. I just started learning japanese a week ago (so far I've almost mastered hiragana of which I'm kinda proud 😁 seems like a good start) and I'm looking for youtube channels to learn more about japanese things besides the language. Your videos are amazing! They calm me down and I feel really immersed in this magical world that you show us. I also really enjoy the idea of limiting yourself to the subtitles. I think that the lack of talking makes it that the video leaves more space for imagination and your own thoughts. I hope you continue to give us that beautiful content, keep it up and all the best wishes from Poland ❤️
Hi! Thank you for watching and for your interest in Japan! Learning a foreign language is a lot of work, but what you get out of it is much greater. がんばって! p.s Ryo in hiragana is りょう : )
Again thanks! what a great video. 😊It reminded me of the greatness of Japanese lifestyle 😊
Haven't watched it yet, but I know i'll enjoy it. Love your content! Keep up the amazing work :)
What a beautiful place 👏👏👏
Yay another vid thank you very much
wonderful
...I thought it was an April Fools joke. There is a new video!
I always like to confuse people. haha
its been a while... welcome back sir.
It's been a while! Your channel has truly grown in the time I couldn't watch your videos. First of all, thank you for your hard work! I've just come back from an onsen trip down in Arima Onsen (Kobe) and it was definitely the best way to say goodbye to winter! Very excited for spring and the cherry blossoms blooming right now :)
It was my dream to travel in Japan

You should check out Yuwaku Onsen next time you're in Ishikawa Prefecture and also the anime "はな咲くいろは". The anime is based around Yuwaku and the town even recreated a festival that didn't exist until the anime called the "Bonbori festival".
still hope you upload more often, hehehe..
but anyway, terima kasih, ryo..
Thank you so much!!!!!
4:14 I wonder if the shop will celebrate 400 years in 2025.
Thanks!
Thank you so much!! Hope you enjoy!!
@sorekaratravel4533
I absolutely enjoyed this & "seeing" you again is the best!! 🥰
I'm happy to know you are still among us!
All blessings to you & your loved ones, Ryo!!
Thank you 😊 ❤️🧡
Happy to hear that! I don't know how to tell you how much I appreciate you! Have a great weekend : )
@sorekaratravel4533
You just did, dear friend.
I will always remember you! ❤️ 🧡
Please have a beautiful weekend, as well!!
Thank you 😊
Long time no see
Japanese ❤❤❤
Very interesting!
very interesting
I love the athmosphere in japan countryside, but seriously, where are the people? Especially the kids, where are they? It's so strange for me that it's so quite there
❤
I live in the US but would love to visit Japan. What would you recommend for a first trip between visiting for the Sakura in Spring or visiting an Onsen in Winter?
Also, what a beautiful video :)
It warms my heart and fills me with peace.
Hmmmmm, If you are coming to Japan for the first time, you will probably encounter some troubles as well as some fun (not only in Japan though). In that regard, cherry blossoms are literally everywhere in Japan in spring, whether in Tokyo or Kyoto, and are easily accessible. It will make your trip a good and easy one.
@@sorekaratravel4533 Excellent :) I don’t doubt there will be some culture shock, but I’m open enough to experience somewhere totally different from what I’m used to.
Miss your videos
Hidden leaf village? 😇
Excellent video, bro. But I think maybe I don't understand the joke? This is an April Fool's Day joke, right?
"...or couples who want to create special memories." What kind of special memories?
something something something
Hey where did your other videos? I cant see them no more 😢
iontach, mar is gnáth
I miss your videos sir
I always watched your video but for a long time, you haven't uploaded a new video is there any reason?
