Life in the World's Snowiest City Part 1 | Aomori, Japan


 

I visited Aomori city, the snowiest city in the world to show you what life is like there. In part 1 you'll see how Aomori keeps its streets clear with its massive amount of snow plows, snow blowers, and dump trucks.

Why This Japanese Town Eats BEARS


 In Japan's northern region of Aomori, the locals regularly eat bear meat. But why's it popular and how does it taste? We travel across Aomori to try 5 dishes and uncover why it has the shortest life expectancy of any prefecture in Japan. (And no it's got nothing to do with the bears!)

Riding the Underwater Bullet Train to Hokkaido JAPAN


 I set out to finally make the trip to the northern island of Hokkaido. In all of the times I have been to Japan, I never actually made it out there. So, I decided to go all the way to the northernmost tip of the country using my JR Rail Pass.

First up, I left Saitama and headed to Omiya Station. Omiya is in Saitama.

Aomori's Nebuta Matsuri Experience | Japanese Summer Festival ★



The Nebuta Matsuri is considered by many as Japan's top festival.

What makes Nebuta so amazing? ★ It could be the illuminated Nebuta floats that are pulled down on the city streets, turning and bowing to the crowd. They're often in the form of mythological Japanese gods or dieties, larger than life in size. ★ Perhaps it's the taiko drums and flute players that make this festival no 1. The beat with those mystical flutes stays in your mind and body days after the festival has ended. ★ It could be the haneto dancers dressed in special yukata dancing and screaming Rasera! Rasera!
