Exploring a GHOST TOWN Island in Japan | Vlog
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 вер 2024
- You won't believe this abandoned #GhostTown, a #UNESCOWorldHeritageSite called Battleship Island or Hashima Island. Commonly called Gunkanjima, is an abandoned island lying about 15 kilometers from the city of Nagasaki, in southern #Japan. It was a thriving coal-mining city, but was abandoned in 1974 when its owner, the Mitsubishi company, decided to shut it down when the Japan government changed its laws to favour obtaining energy from oil, and not coal. We also visit the Gunkanjima Digital Museum to have a feel for what this post-apocalyptic-like island was like before it was deserted.

Welcome to my daily vlogs! TRAVEL. FOOD. COMEDY. SINGING. ANTS. LIFE.
I upload a new video every day at 7AM EST!
About Me:
My bio is pretty random: In short, I am a professional singer/songwriter from Toronto, Canada who moved to Manila, Philippines which sorta became my Hollywood because my first UA-cam channel MIKEYBUSTOSVIDEOS grew popular due to Filipino comedy videos. Meanwhile, I'm also a big biology geek who is obsessed with ants, so I built an internationally operating ant business supported by another popular channel called ANTSCANADA, and well basically, today I travel and tour around the world doing what I love so I wanted to start this vlogging channel, in hopes to encourage you guys to follow your dreams no matter how random, by showing you what happened when I followed mine! You just never know where life will take you when you listen to the yearnings of your heart!
Addiction or what, I set my alarm for 11 am (London) to be right here for my dose of Mikey’s inspiration!
Is that lady part of the exhibit? 😁
Ms. Nami: She's just a tourist
Laughing out loud.. 😂🤣😂
Your Japan trip vlogging is awesome.
But the little Ligaya segments totally steal the show!
Cnu nung mga nandito dahil kay teacher popong?? Pa like😁
Well well well 😁😁😁
Ako
Haha! I was also thinking if that lady was part of the exhibit! 🤣🤣🤣
No shade to other vloggers that were invited to Japan, but your Japan vlogs are more sophisticated IMO!
Thank you. To be fair, we're also older so naturally different things appeal to us than the young ones! Hahaha!
@@MikeyBustosVLOGS true. Thank you for always educating your audience! As a mom I really appreciate it as your content appeals to both adults and kids.
Thank you Nami 👩🏻for providing great insight and excellent and kind care showing Mikey and RJ with these amazing tours in Japan 🇯🇵.
Thanks for a dose of ligaya. Miss that bird.💙
Thank you for sharing Mikey.. We've learned a lot about these Battleship island (Hashima Island) tour..
Reminiscing the past thru digital presentation is truly amazeball.. 😁
I loved the island and digital museum tour. The man who lived on the island was so nice to share his memories of life on that island. I love restaurants in Japan. I love food and the environment inside.
3D render or an ant nest please!!!
AntsCanada hi
Lol you're such a nerd.
I
AntsCanada NO SILLY
This is so informative..
Yay Seeing Ligaya Again Makes Me Happy 🙂🙂🙂 #MabuhaySquad
Thanks again for bringing us with you through😍.
makes me want to visit Japan more!
PS: Mikey looks cute with his hair, really!
Feels so good to be back and join mabuhay squad watch you exploring Japan after my phone suddenly did not work. I must have one free day to watch 2 weeks of episodes. Well, Nihon o tanoshimimaso. Enjoy Japan.
Love these Japan vlogs! Mikey you are such a good storyteller!
Japan 🇯🇵 vlogs love it!
Happy blessed weekend-3🇨🇦
Nice one Jane..
Thank you for taking good care of Ligaya while #DaddyBirdMikey is in Japan.. 😁
Whoah😮😵
That hangy thing you mentioned is actually called noren. Finding one outside of a shop means that it's open for business. It is usually taken down when the shop closes.
Ahhhh now we know!!!
What a cool tour of the island.
Wow That's Amazing To Recreate Battle Ship Island Like That #MabuhaySquad
Yeah
Ganda ng Battleship Island. Gusto ko po sana pumunta.
I love the unplanned food touring!
It's the BEST PART of exploring a country!
@@MikeyBustosVLOGS Ohh, I totally agree 👍
Once i hear the outro music it makes me sad that your vlog will end..
Its also where they have put captured koreans by japan in forced labor to mine coals during world war 2(not sure if its 2 ☺️?). I saw it in one of south korea variety shows. I believed its a very controversial island.
Yes! I was going to say ua-cam.com/video/U55jK3jXodA/v-deo.html it’s heartbreaking that episode.
Fran Aviane its a very sad episode 😭😭
Yes Mikey.... my mom had also tha same sewing machine...throwback.....
Crazy right?!
Scrumptious and Fabulous Restaurants to choose from 🍣🥢🍱 🇯🇵.
I follow Exploring With Josh. He explored the island you are showing us in this vlog.
Ohhh I've met him. Great vlogger!
😁 I’ve read some small facts about the island but never realised how much was behind it all.
Great vlog!!
Love The View Of The Ocean #MabuhaySquad
Happy to see Ligaya again..
Georgia coffee MY FAV! I used to buy two and put them in my pockets when I waited for the bus. ❤️😂
Interesting places to visit there Mikey so party it up.🤪🇨🇦
Oh we did!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Labeeetttt! Japan is Uhm-mey-zing!!! 😍😍😍
The 3D/VR stuff is pretty cool. I'd like to visit that island one day.
Another fantastic vlog so interesting probably the only way I will get to see such things thanks for sharing. Jane is so cute taking such good care of Ligaya scratch scratch scratch
Wow 😲 now I need to make sure we also visit Nagasaki when we go to Japan 🇯🇵 so rich in history 👍 but I’m amazed how they preserved it and does looked like apocalyptic 😱very interesting! Thanks Mikey and RJ for sharing 🙏😍
My Lola had that sewing machine. I remember seeing this when my grandparents used to reside on Ideal St. in Mandaluyong years ago.
Check out Whittier, Alaska...the whole town lives in one building...there are also some abandoned other buildings too
Mikey your haircut makes you look like a teenager. It really suits you well. 👍😂👏
❤❤❤
My favorite is strawberry Ramune', but if I ever find the coffee, I'll try it!
Thank you for exploring Japan for the #MabuhaySquad! :)
Wow nice to know the history of japan
Knowing that they are still in Nagasaki and already have amazing adventures, what crazy adventures are we going to expect when they arrive in Tokyo later?
I love your vids
Love from phoenix az usa
that was a good question Mikey. I was also wondering why there's a lady sitting inside the exhibit area 😅 Battleship Island has an interesting story 👍 great to see Ligayz cuddle time with RJ's sister.
Nice to see Ligaya get her scratches!
Nice to see Ligaya☺️☺️😊
Honorable Japanese Hosts, Thank from the #MabuhaySquad, if I may, for honoring our Mikey Bustos, by inviting and hosting him while in your beautiful country: so, enabling him to bring your wonderful country to us. And thank you Mikey, for being to gracious as to accept this honor. I am truly enjoying learning more about Japan. We have many Asian people living here in Seattle, including Japanese and I love meeting people from around the world. So I'm highly enjoying these wonderful vlogs Mikey and RJ. Maybe one day sweet Ligaya will be able to travel with you some day. I miss her already.
Love seeing your adventures in Japan!!! Thank you for sharing!!! Keep up the great and amazing work Mikey!! Love you and RJ!! Great footage Mikey!!! Wicked scenery as well!!
YOUR #1 FAN ~ Amanda Mandigo
P.S. I watch Mikey every morning at 7am (USA, N.Y.) for my daily dose of positivity!!! Thank you Mikey!!! 😊😉
Gukanjima Digital Museum - Magnificent. From the past and incorporating the present and utilizing VR with the history surroundings and Visual Presentation. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The name itself, battleship island reminds me of some oldschool nintendo cartridge games and the looks of it screams Counterstrike- "fire in the hole!"
Cool city within a city.😀
Great vlog. It was very interesting.My parents had lived in housing for its employees(Remington Arms) ,before I was born because my Dad was a metal worker back then. The structures look in the same disrepair state now as its been unused for a long time(the watchtower remains though crumbly). The earth reclaims its own.😍 I love that. It was great looking in on Ligaya. I miss her so know you definitely do! Now, I'm off to watch AntsCanada and Rhino beetle games! Yay
So neat getting to see Japan and learning more about their culture and history
I also watch a show called Ultimate Japan and your vlogs remind of it a little since you also enjoy going to museums and of course eating 😂🍤🍣🍜🍡
Nice to see a little of what Ligaya is up to these days 😂🐦😂🐦
Now I want to visit Japan. Thanks for these videos! 🙏
I’ve seen documentaries about that island before. I don’t know about in the Philippines but there is places like that scattered across America.
wow mikey you grow some hair you look good 😌
Mitsubishi is a big corporation in Japan, remember the zeroes in WWII, that planes were built by Mitsubishi. My Japanese friend told me Mitsubishi means three diamonds (check their logo, it has three diamonds). Now getting more power from Nuclear plant.
Mikey BIG FAN I SUBSCRIBED,LIKED, AND CLICKED NOTIFICATION BELL
Injoy your day in Japan 😀and the food are amazing 🌍🌏🌎
I'm envious of your can of hot coffee. Can you send me some?? Lol ☕😂
lovely visite
2:09 mikey what are you doing are you doing ninja or samurai disguise
Adorothy Bartolome Oh my!!😂🤣 Cold/wind protection maybe.
😎😎😎
No butter with the coffee lol
Thank you Mikey, RJ, Jeahh, and all! I wonder how many anime have a plot with the secret evil team camped out on a fictionalized Gunkanjima! Or the demon monster crawls out of the abandoned mines😈 abandoned places inspire the imagination.
Oh for sure there's gotta be anime and even myths!
Ohh hashima island
Good job Jane Garcia
YAAAAAY
5:27 ahhh the dragon
good morning everyone!
if im at the ghost town i be like "RUN" remix enters 😆
Mikey, I really love your vids and its so funny pls notice me i love you mikey and your vids
When you were watching the presentation I thought wow he can sit still!
Hahaha!
I've seen that on "What on Earth?", a TV show about an image taken from all the satellites around the globe
& 1 episode showed near Japan, a small island with many building blocks but no activities.
Another, a Japanese singer used that location for her music video.
Hashima Island has a dark history. During the WWII the Japanese (Colonial era) took many Koreans and Chinese who was forcely taken and made them work in this island for coal mining. There's even a movie about how they tried to escape the island.
A korean variety show went to the island and also interviewed the forced laborer , it was heartbreaking to see. ua-cam.com/video/U55jK3jXodA/v-deo.html
THAT ISLAND LOOKS LIKE A HAUNTED PLACE IT LOOKS CREEPY BY JUST LOOKING AT IT I BET THOSE GHOSTS HUNTERS WILL LOVE THAT PLACE
sinong pumunta dito dahil kay teacher popong??..like lng...
Who is Teacher Popong? 🙂
Ako hahaha
Ako din hehe,,,,,
Meron din place sa Japan rabbit lng ang nakatira sna mapuntahan nyo rin.

By the way check out the movie
Oh there's a movie?!!!
There is a korean movie about this island called "Battleship Island"
HI
Omg! I thought the lady in that room is Nami! Haha
ya got me mikey
im not much for coffee tho
do they have canned tea?
And a lot of korean unpaid workers were there. And it was still acknowledged as a UNESCO site without the history being told
It's sad that they don't acknowledge the real history of it.
Early squad!
Nice video
We need more nami!!!!
Yeah penay squad heart.
RJ, hoiw did you tell the driver where to go
I just showed him the name
Lol. Not sure why that cracked me up
RJ is SO funny and doesn't even try.

I was thinking it too,.. hilarious 😁
Hahaha right?!!!
Miss you much, Ligaya.
