Join us on a fun day trip to Utsunomiya (Tochigi Prefecture) by Shinkansen from Tokyo Station. Utsunomiya is known as the capital of gyoza in Japan.

We go to Gyoza Street first, then on to the large, cool, and serene subterranean stone mines (Ōya History Museum). After that, we visit the impressive Ōya-ji Temple with its pretty water garden, and nearby towering Heiwa (Peace) Kannon Statue.

Filmed on August 22, 2022.
