Braving the snowy charms of a northern Japanese city ❄️ HAKODATE
Вставка

- Here's my look at the streets and neighborhoods of Hakodate, Japan in winter. One dark evening, and then the next day, I walked the icy sidewalks, then rode trams, to see what Hokkaido's third-biggest city is like in the middle of winter. Answer: cold but vibrant. And there's a phenomenally great way to stay warm built right into one of the street corners. Bliss.
🚠 NOTE: I keep saying "cable car" in this video; it should be "ropeway". Oops.

Thanks for another very interesting presentation. You travel the way i like to, on a budget and wandering around to see how the people really live.
I know of no other way
Thank you for the history and making time to take us along.
great stuff Jeremy. I have been watching the Hakodate harbor-area webcam for years. Seems to snowing there 75% of the time in winter. Its first on my list to visit when i get to Hokkaido. Seafood and footbaths...2 of my favs.
I love those Hokkaido webcams!
Another great glimpse of a place and your wanderings---thanks!
Wooooooot!!!! Another great one. I hope traveling doesn't get to tiring for you J.
Don't worry, I don't think that is going to happen :)
Merry Isthmus Hakodate Wanderer!
800 million and 1 thumbs up on your foot bath brother!
I miss it already
It is probably damp there and the cold gets inside you. Stay warm.
Excellent video. As always.
Thanks. I've got my layers on!
@T1DWanderer don't slip on that ice.
As we use to say in the Air force ,when you fell on the ice " you got bitten from the snow snake ". LOL.
Great video and beautiful city, thank you for sharing with us! 😊
Tfs Jeremy! Always so interesting! 🇯🇵
I really appreciate your delivery skills. They really make your videos engaging
Thanks a lot!
Informative and as always, entertaining 🤣
Mystery box: traffic signal? Lost and Found?
Free lost and found for whomever can get the box open!
I actually think it just may have been some lawn care type supplies for the park (maybe?)
Hi Jeremy sorry I've just now found your site. Have been to Japan 3 times with family and just love everything about it. Your videos are just fantastic. Love the history you fill us with. Looking forward to seeing and hearing about your travels. Gidday from Downunder 🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘
Thank you very much, welcome!
Great video but looked so cold. Brrrr....us southern USA dwellers are not used to that white stuff and ice! Yikes!
No, this took some getting used to!
Hey Jeremy! No new video today? I'll check back later. -- charlie, california
in the box you would have found a hot bowl of soup.
"It's also good to look at things from the Optometrist's way."
My guess about the pen and pad would have been it's for the Chinese Tourist as Chinese Characters are still in use for place names, but then the advise was only in English and Japanese???
It may be that written English is often easier for Japanese people than spoken English. They aren't taught native, natural English pronunciation in school, so listening can be nearly impossible. But students do a lot of reading and writing
Jeremy-san, I strongly recommend to insert Japanese subtitles. As you know mostly Japanese people doesn't speak English. And many Japanese train geeks are interested in overseas transportation.
That’s a good point and I should do this for my channel
Thanks for the suggestion. I would like to but it takes a lot of extra time. Hopefully I will be able to soon :)
The decapitated heads of curious tourists is what's in the mystery box........🤔
Ha, good guess. Glad I had the instinct to walk away from it!
@@T1DWanderer good choice
I am tired of seeing Japan what's next the prison system
Nope we're all getting money together and sending Still Jeremy on a spaceship...
Indeed, I'll soon be on a train line built by prisoners from an infamous prison in Abashiri, a town I stop in ;)
