The best Ryokan in Japan (Ryokan = traditional Japanese inn) 旅館での素敵なひと時 | Tokyo
Information | History | View | Sightseeing | Video
Of course, "best" is purely subjective. 僕たちが考える”ベスト”な旅館で~す! To celebrate a bunch of things (late birthday, new job, success with YouTube/book sales), Ryosuke and I went to a gorgeous traditional Ryokan in Tochigi, Shimofujiya. いつも仕事頑張ってるグレイスのためにも温泉で有名な那須塩原にある「やまの宿 下藤屋」さんの旅館に行ってきたよ~! English web site: http://www.english.shimofujiya.com/ サイトはこちらhttp://www.shimofujiya.com/ 下藤屋の皆様のご協力のおかげで、最高の思い出と動画が出来たよ〜! We heard about this place through a good friend and yeah, it lived up to the hype. 友達に勧められて行ったら、もう「感動」の一言! Ryokan have been closing down all over Japan - because of the declining birth rate, the fact that people are leaving the countryside in favor of large cities, and lower household finances. 最近日本では人口減少によって廃業する旅館が増えてるらしいので、なるべく早めに旅館に行こうと思ったのがきっかけなんだ! I wanted to make sure I we had the chance to see one, before most of the historic and "authentic" places close down.

Amazing video! Im going to Kyoto in the near future but we are alittle
worried about staying at Ryokans. We like privacy, own bathrooms and
showers, locks on the door and being able to have a romantic stay. is
this possible at Ryokans? The more i search, the less i find about
these things. -
I just love your videos. Going to Japan has been a life long dream of mine. Having your insight and what too do and not to do is so going to help me enjoy and pick activities that I had no alternative to learning about outside of your youtube channel. Thankyou so very much......please keep posting.You guys are awesome!

Hi Grace, I'm planning on staying here next week with my girlfriend after seeing your great video! - do you know shimofujiya's email? Wanted to try and organise a pickup with them from the Okushiobara Shinyu Onsen as described on their website.
Many thanks!

Ryokan seems similar to a spa hotel in America. I mean, not in the details, but the general concept. It's a place you go to relax, some place that's close to nature, and they have a lot of amenities that deal with your mental well being.

Coming from a regural Western culture in Europe, Japanese culture seems so peacefull and balanced, almost from another world ! too bad i am never gonna visit a place like Japan.
-
so beautiful
-
I'm turning Japaneso I'm turning Japaneso I really think so
-
this makes me want to move to japan so bad, i have always loved the culture there. I know that it's not all nice and cuddly like in the videos but the times that they are amazing.
-
for a visual person like....everything about japan is just visually orgasmic and i meant that in a good way. the packaging of their prodcts is just a start and how they present food and service....its like OMG! subarashii!!!!
-
