    Ueno Park is so beautiful at night 🌙 loved all those shots you took, especially at the temple. Your meal looked pretty filling and yummy. Wow, what a pleasant New Year's surprise at the end of the video with your Japanese greeting! So brave of you because it's not your normal thing in the vlogs. If you feel more comfortable, you should speak more Japanese. I think it would be nice for those who are learning with the vocabulary you put in already. Thanks for the hard work. Gambatte!🎉

  • @ksenijacizek5901

    I like you speaking in Japanese although your speed is so high that I can only enjoy listening to the language rhythm, but it's nice anyhow. In replays I will pay more attention to this part. Very wise not to be in the line for Sanso-ji temple. It seems even more crowdy than last year. The vibrant atmoshere in all parts of Tokyo you visited, which is for sure appropriate for the New Year Day. The new year stsrted for you, dear Rion, with extremely hard work, including of course the Shibuya countdown, so that you deserve a proper rest after that.
    Stay safe and healthy in the current year and may all your plans and dreams come true. I am sure that walking with you will continue to be a great fun as in the past, too. GAAOO......

    Shinto Shrines have 'Torii' 鳥居 and Buddhist Temples have Gates 'Mon' 門 in the Entrance. The first one you see when entering says if its mainly Shinto or Buddhist. As Shinto and Buddhism are not contrary to each other, both can be found in a combination.

    Happy New Year Rion!🎉Wishing you all the best in the year ahead-happiness, health, success, and prosperity! Cheers 🥂 to a fresh start and new beginning! 🎉 As for your question about how to distinguish shrines from temples by looking from outside, hmm..🤔 I’d start by looking at the architecture. Generally, shrines have a torii gate at the entrance. Temples, on the other hand, usually have a large gate called a “sanmon” that leads to the main hall. Additionally, shrines often have a purification fountain outside the main hall, while temples may have a pagoda or other structures that are used for religious purposes.

If you visit HK around Lunar New Year, you’d experience the same thing-I wanted to dine at my favorite local restaurant, but it was closed during my short visit around that time. Wondering if you saw that in China 🤔

So many amazing memories...Thank You so much Rion! Happy New Years!!! I also will be praying and have prayed for the citizens of Japan to get through these tough times with what happened with the Earthquake, the plane explosion and the latest akihabara train stabbings....not a great start to the year but we support you!!!!

    I was at Zenkoji Temple directly below the Oni gate when the earthquake happened. The Oni both started rocking and my mouth was open. Luckily my guide and husband dragged me from under the gate. It was 5.0 and then after many aftershocks. Our train back to Tokyo was also suspended. Instead everyone at the Nagano Station rush in to try and take the non-reservation seats on the Asama from Nagano to Tokyo and despite taking train from 8.10pm we only reach our hotel at 12midnight. Overall scary experience.

    There is so many people, not because Japan open the country but it is a Japanese national holiday😂
