Good morning guys! Guess where I am today?

I'm super excited because I'm back in Fukushima prefecture.

I really really enjoyed my first two trips here,

so I was super excited when Koriyama City invited me to come back and explore the place,

I took the shinkansen from Tokyo this morning.

It was just over an hour ride. It wasn't long at all.

I got here super quickly, and I'm super excited to explore the city. We're going to a couple cool places

I'm gonna be staying at a really nice hotel tonight,

and I can't wait to show you guys around, so let's go!

So actually the first spot I want to show you is right here at the station.

They have a really cool looking building behind me here

This is called the "big eye," and it's actually a planetarium,

and it's in the Guinness Book of World Records because apparently

it is the highest planetarium in the world

Koriyama is actually well known as a very musical city.

Several famous Japanese musicians originated here,

probably the most famous being the J-pop band Green.

but when I arrived here in the Shinkansen, the train station song

If you come outside in front of the station here, you will see this green door,

and on the ground you'll see the footprints of all the members of Green.

And the members actually went to university here,

and that's where they started their band,

so the door is supposed to be like the start of your success.

You walk through it thinking about your goals for the future, and when you exit,

that's supposed to be like the start of your journey.

I'm super excited to see it because I saw it online -

We only traveled like 16 minutes and all of a sudden -

I was not expecting that. It feels quite warm today.

and we're heading to the hotel, but first

I heard there's an ashiyu at the station so I want to check that out.

I've only been to one ashiyu before, maybe two,

but I was always wearing tights, so, I couldn't do it.

Today I don't have tights on, so let's go do some ashiyu.

There's steam coming off of the water. Okay, let's try it guys.

This is so pretty with the snow in the background.

This one's like a nice, warm temperature,

but this area's freaking hot. This is like a hot tub,

or one of those like, intense onsen where you can barely get in the water.

I could stay here all afternoon. Like bring my laptop do some editing.

and has become a modernized heritage building.

I can't believe how gorgeous this city is.

It's so pretty with the snow everywhere! The view is just so pretty, guys.

So this hotel actually has 30 baths that you can go in,

and the website just looked amazing, so I cannot wait to check them out.

We're gonna go inside now and see what kind of baths they have.

So I'm just inside the changing room area right now

So what you do is you take off all your clothes here -

I'll be wearing a towel today, just for filming purposes,

but when you actually come here and enter the onsen,

The air's pretty chilly, so sitting out here

looking at the snowy garden, is just perfect.

Ok, I need to show you guys something really cool-

and you don't feel 100% comfortable being naked in front of a bunch of strangers,

and you find it hard to relax, it's okay.

They have something for you here. They have this little

can hide away from everybody in your own little private nook,

They have an interesting bath behind me here,

and that means you stay standing up, you don't sit down.

And it says you have to be 140 centimeters tall.

Luckily, I make that mark, so let's go in.

I've never been in an onsen that's this deep.

Usually when you sit down it comes up to about this level.

and they actually have an onsen that has a beautiful view from up here.

So we're just gonna go in there and check that one out.
