Chiba Port Tower is nothing more than an observatory tower located in the port-side area of Chiba city, in the prefecture of the same name. It is 125 meters tall, yet with only 4 floors, and located on the top of this tower is a cafe which sits alongside an observatory room.
The tower was opened in 1986 and built in commemoration of Chiba Prefecture’s population exceeding the five-million mark in 1983.
With its unique design and entirely covered of reflective windows, the Chiba Port Tower is a breathtaking, architectural wonder that seems to pierce the sky like a ‘katana’.
Located in central Gifu, Gujō Hachiman seems to be one of those small towns where time passes by ten times slower than usual. At the confluence of the upper Nagara-gawa (river) and the Yoshida-gawa (river), this town, founded in the 16th century following the construction of the Hachiman Castle, is known for two main things. Firstly, its pristine waterways where many people come and fish, and secondly for its unique summer dance festival, the Gujo Dori which continues from July to September for a period of thirty-one nights!

Zojo-Ji Temple Part I - 三縁山増上寺 - 4K Ultra HD : What stands out the most here at Zojo-Ji temple is the striking contrast between the old and new Japan. While its immediate neighborhood is dominated by modem buildings and Tokyo Tower, Zojo-ji feels like it has been stuck in a bubble where time moves at a slower pace to its surroundings.
Located a few steps away from Tokyo Tower, Zojo-ji temple is a buddhist temple and the main temple for the Chinzei branch of Jōdo-shū Buddhism. Built in 1393, it was only in 1598 that the Zoji-temple moved to its current location. To this date, only the Sangedatsumon Gate (main entrance) has succeeded in withstanding fires, earthquakes and wars, while the main building, also known as Daiden, has had to be rebuilt many times over.
While the main attraction here is the temple itself and the possibility for many to take a gorgeous picture of both Daiden (the main temple) with Tokyo Tower in its background, others come to Zojo-ji Temple to visit the Tokugawa mausoleum (only open during some special occasions and some public holidays) and its Jizō statues at the cemetery of Unborn Children that we will cover in depth in the second part of this video.

Located near the Mano bay of Sado Island Aikawa district, the Kasuga Wakamiya Shrine is a small shrine that was, according to some records, founded in 1611 as Hachiman Wakamiya but then was later renamed as Kasuga Wakamiya early in the Meiji Era.
Kasauga Wakamiya inshrines deities Ame-no-Koyane, the ancestral god of the Nakatomi clan and Fujiwara no Kamatari, the founder of the powerful Fujiwara clan. Also, Ame-no-Futodama-no-Mikoto, who both played an active role in bringing back Amaterasu Omikami, the goddess of the sun, who happens to be hidden in Ama-no-Iwato, a cave in Japanese mythology.
In 1884, Kasuga Wakamiya moved to its actual location which was featured in the 2013 movie, “Fly, Dakota, Fly!” that narrated the story of the English crew of a Douglas C-47 Skytrain (or Dakota), who had an emergency on the Island of Sado five months after the end of WWII.
All in all, Kasuga Wakamiya may not be one of Sado’s most memorable Shrines, but its unique location, surrounded by rice fields makes, at least for us at TokyoStreetView, something that it was worth sharing with you all.

Also known as Chichibu Yomatsuri, the Chichibu Night Festival in Saitama, is considered one of Japan’s top three festivals to feature floats, and it is the principal festival at Chichibu Shrine, the main shrine in Saitama's Chichibu region.
Taking place annually on the 3rd of December, the Chichibu Night Festival is an astonishing matsuri, with its climax taking place in the evening when kasaboko and yatai floats, weighing 10-20 tons each and lit up with countless lanterns, climb up a steep slope with a mikoshi (portable shrine).

Note : This is yet another version of the first video we made a couple of month ago. This video was taken when testing a new Lens for our gear and could not resist to share these footage of Shibuya's famous crossing with you... Hope you will enjoy these long, yet gorgeous video of one of the world most famous crossing.
------------------
One of Tokyo’s most famous locations, Shibuya Crossing, a scramble crossing, is located just in front of Shibuya Station and a few step away from the Statue of Hachiko*.
Shibuya Crossing has been made famous not only by its atypical crossing but also by its giants TV Screens, many advertising signs and youth fashion stores.
Compared by many to New York’s Times Square, Shibuya Crossing has been seen in many foreign movies around the world and quickly became a number one tourist curiosity in Japan.
*Hachiko was an Akita dog that died in 1935. He is celebrated and remembered for his loyalty to his owner even after the owner died. For an additional 10 years, Hachiko continued his ritual of walking to Shibuya Station and waiting for his beloved owner to return.

Ushibuka Haiya Odori is one of Japan's most famous festivals. It began around 200 years ago during the Edo era in the once rich port of Ushibuka. What is unique about the Ushibuka Haiya Odori, it’s said to be the root of all “Awa Odori” and “Haiya” folk music heard all over Japan!
In Ushibuka, Haiya-Bushi dance has been passed down from generation to generation as a traditional performing art. Usually taking place once a year in February, the people of Ushibuka have started offering during August some unique Haiya Odori performances inviting others to come along and learn about the beauty of Haiya Odori and it’s unique history and dance and participate in one of a kind festival with other performers coming from all over Japan!
Luckily for us, we have been invited by the nice folks of Ushibuka tourism promotion and the Team of SuperMatsuri (https://supermatsuri.com) to participate in this fantastic event and adventure!

Iwate prefecture is located in the heart of Tohoku between Aomori and Miyagi. It features some of Japan most majestic coasts and cliffs. It is true, however, that the Iwate coastal front, like many other places in the Tohoku region, deeply suffered from the devastation of the 2011 tsunami. The scars of the natural disaster are still present when this video was shot in summer 2016. Nevertheless, Iwate the coast still offers breathtaking views like the ones you will enjoy on this video today. In order to appearance: Kitayamazaki Cliffs (8 km long, 200m height), Unosu Cliff (4 km, 200m height) and the Sannoiwa Rocks.

La préfecture d’Iwate est située au coeur de Tohoku entre Aomori et Miyagi. Elle possède quelques unes des plus majestueuses côtes et falaises du Japon. Le bord côtier d’Iwate, ainsi que de nombreux autres endroits à Tohoku, ont cependant sévèrement souffert de la dévastation du tsunami de 2011. Les cicatrices étaient encore visibles quand cette vidéo a été produite en été 2016. Néanmoins, la côte d’Iwate nous offre toujours de magnifiques vues comme celle que vous allez découvrir aujourd’hui. Dans l’ordre des apparitions : Les falaises de Kitayamazaki (8km de long, 200m de haut), la falaise d’Unosu (4km de long, 200m de haut), et les roches de Sannoiwa
