It's really easy to get to, it's only one train station away from the airport.

And it's one of our favorite temples to come to because not a lot of people know about it because they always go to the one in the Tokyo area.

And so, this one is not as crowded at the other temples that you visit in Japan, so it's perfect.

And it's also very popular during New Year's.

I think it's the number two temple that the Japanese go to during the New Year's.

So I would kind of avoid going during New Year's unless you really like being in crowded areas.

- Yeah. but other than that it's usually pretty chill here.  - Yeah so let's go check it out!

A lot of cities in Japan have their own mascot, which is kinda hilarious.

We'll see how it is, I've never had it actually.

So, I'm gonna get some yaki dango. It's one of my favorites.

It's rice that's patted down like a million times... well its probably not a million times...

I don't really know how many times... anyways, it's very chewy, so yeah... that's what I'm gonna get right now.

So, this i what I got, the pumpkin flavor.

- So we made it.  - Yay! We made it to the temple.

It's not that bad of a walk. I wanna say it's like 10-15 minutes.

But you're probably gonna most likely stop along the way try some food.

There's a lot of good stuff: some eel cutting...lots of little souvenir shops.

Or you can just go back up after you're done viewing the temple.

This right here is smoke healing your body, so like whenever you have like aches or pains somewhere, you just put this smoke on you.

Like my back hurts, so I'm putting it on my back and it's supposed to help you heal your bad aching parts.

Alright, so I'm going to do some omikuji: It's like a fortune telling thing.

And you just pick a number... I'm gonna go with 74.

You just take that piece of paper and.... Oh no! I got bad luck.

So, what you do with this is you fold it up and then you put it on a tree that they have or like a little gate with the strings so that your bad luck will not happen.

Hope you enjoyed the tour of Narita Temple.

We had so much fun as usual, so hope you have fun too if you come visit.
