It’s our first day back in Japan, and today we are headed to the most recommended attraction in the city, which just happens to be Tokyo’s oldest temple. We’ll go on a food tour of the 3-century-old street market in front of the temple, which is filled with all kinds of traditional Japanese street food we’ve never tried. A lot of sweet treats but also some savory options like premium A5 wagyu beef. We’ll explore Japan’s oldest amusement park— one of the weirdest yet most charming amusement parks we’ve ever seen. You can ride raccoon helicopters in the sky or on the back of a panda car. We’ll see Tokyo from above in Tokyo Skytree— the third tallest structure in the world. Come with us on this adventure!

What a dope. I commented on the same video twice. Anyway, a lot of those buildings are freakishly tall! Can’t even wrap my head around it.
Hi guys! Thank you for coming back to Japan😝 as a Japanese living in the UK, I really enjoyed your video 😁 and I miss Japaan so much too 😩 anyway I am so happy you two really really enjoyed Japan (of course DISNEY) every time ☺️ thanks, guys!
And the panda rides’s red button was for reverse 😍❤️
Keep it up guys😘 and again thank you 💕💕
I hope that while in Shibuya that you took the walk to harajuku area via cat street. Not long and very nice in evening especially with some holiday lights at nearby malls and miyashita park. Also a great area is the small back alley izakaya place just before miyashita (not the fancy one at bottom of park building). This one feels like the larger memory lane type places in shinjuku. If you google shibuya nonbei yokocho it will get you there. Definitely worth a walk through for the “interesting “ public bathrooms. Love that area as a base. The Ginza line was great for jumping to ueno side of city.
I highly recommend that you look into why AI and ChatGPT in general is harmful to our world. Generating AI text/images requires intense computing power and leads to significant carbon emissions in data centers. Sometimes the easy way is not necessarily the right way. Please do research and consider not using AI in the future. Love the video <33 So glad you had a great time in Tokyo!
Love all those different food stands and places they have there. So many options, you see the care and the love for what they make. It seems more to make a buck. A love the mixture of modern day with centuries old historical buildings together.
The hard cut from the kid on the Panda car to Peter on the Panda car had me crying! 😂
Peter and Kitra, this is once again just a next-level vlog. I feel like I am watching the travel channel, but it is more entertaining!
Oh man I miss calpis, the Harris teeter near me had it for such a short time.
The unlikely crossover I didn’t know I needed in 2024: Ordinary Adventures and Jujustu Kaisen! 😂 I got so hyped at 33:02 when you can hear SPECIALZ by King Gnu in the background and then again when I saw the JJK characters on the Skytree’s walls!
Peter you get better looking as you age !!?
We all heard Peter say cow piss right?
I LOVED Asakusa. Everything I ate/saw, every local I got to talk to…. Just awesome.
I’m so glad you guys went there 😊!
My wife, kids and I just got back from 13 days in Japan. Amazing place, amazing food, and way too much to buy! We did the Sky Tree at sunset/early evening on a clear day and it was gorgeous. You can definitely see Mt. Fuji in the distance.
If you’re ever at Japanese sky tree, there’s a beetle themed bakery and they open pretty early. We got there around nine and the staff was really lovely.
Congrats on your weight loss peter, looking great!
My town has a small amusement park called Lakemont park with the oldest roller coaster in the US and we used to have a haunted dark ride
I want to ride the panda 🥰❤🥰❤🥰
I cant believe how many things in Japan are affordable! All the things you should be able to get for a couple of bucks there are like double or triple in the states. I know not everything in Japan is cheap, but when it comes to food and drinks it always seems so much more reasonable.
Re: having breakfast outside. There are definitely places that do breakfast and are open early like KOHIKAN. There are even 24 hour places like Sukiya which are a franchise gyudon if you're after a bigger meal.
Japan has tons of little amusement parks that are mega cheap and perfect for small kids. The major theme parks like Tokyo Disneyland are amazing but these little ones are still great fun.
disappointed to see yall promoing ChatGPT when it's pretty clear how much it is imacting the enviornment and AI in general is putting a LOT of artists in many different fields out of the job. pls pls do not support AI- we need yall to uplift the creatives, not the bots made to replace us <3
Calpis was branded Calpico in the States. Not sure if it's around anymore.
enjoy vour travel here in japan .. ❤
My question is to you all folks: for a first timer which area is best for accommodation? Thanks in advance
Is the new Suica app for non-Japanese Androids available yet?
I love all your Japan series videos, just so much fun. Oh and Japan is on a whole new level when it comes to performing magic. And speaking of which, do you have any videos where you share the little magic corner of your house?
