Beppu is the Japanese city with the most hot springs in the world. Join my sister-in-law Akko and I as we explore some onsen homes as well as some of the sights of Beppu.
I recently found out that there’s a city in Japan, Beppu, where many people are able to own or rent a home with a natural hot spring (onsen) for their bath. I explore how this is possible and what it takes to get a hot spring home in Japan.
How does one deal with 6 metres (20 feet) of snow falling on and around their home every year? The residents of Aomori city, who live in the world’s snowiest city, show us how.
We asked five Japanese families to show us what’s inside their fridges and made a list of the most common ingredients. See the typical food found in a Japanese fridge plus what the ingredients are used for.
