🌸 A Spring Day to Nara from Kyoto | Best Sakura Spot | Keage Incline, Saho River | Cosy Japan Vlog
Welcome to Episode 3 of our Sakura Diaries - Spring in Kyoto & Nara 🌸 Explore the quieter side of Nara with us to find Nara's best sakura location, the Saho River —one of the most peaceful hanami spots, loved by locals but less crowded than Nara Park. We also started out the morning chasing the sakuras along Keage Incline, Blue Bottle Kyoto, Nazen-Ji, and towards Philosopher's Path in Kyoto before our day trip to Nara. Join us for a cozy, aesthetic Japan travel vlog filled with cherry blossoms, quiet moments, and the joy of spring in Japan. (Turn on CC for subtitles and translations in English and other languages.)
