Experiences – Life – Inspiration 🇨🇭🇯🇵

If you ever find yourself worn out by the doom-and-gloom headlines and overly talkative YouTubers, I have something refreshing to recommend: a channel that lets Japan’s nature speak for itself.

🌿 Haruyuki Ononoue

This channel is a true gem for anyone who wants to experience the beauty of Japan’s natural landscapes without any interruptions—no salesy banter, no unnecessary commentary. Just beautifully shot, high-quality footage of mountains, rivers, forests, flowers, and tranquil seasons changing before your eyes.

Whenever I feel overwhelmed or need a break from the chaos of modern content, I switch to Haruyuki Ononoue’s videos. I don’t know the creator personally, but I can vouch for the calming and awe-inspiring quality of his work. It’s like a breath of fresh air, every single time.

It reminds me a little of the channel I recommended earlier on this blog—River Runs Through Japan—but with its own distinct rhythm and mood. Both capture “the real Japan” in a way that many travel vlogs or promotional videos simply don’t. No filters, no voiceovers, no distractions—just pure appreciation for a land that’s often underappreciated in its quiet beauty.

If you’re looking for something simple, stunning, and serene, give it a go. Let your eyes wander and your mind rest.
