Today’s video is going to be a list of things you could do near NARITA AIRPORT💕

Did you know that you can enjoy traditional Japan just a 10-minute train ride away from Narita airport?

Narita station is just one station away from Narita Airport Terminal 2, and there are so many things to see, eat and explore!

Here are 10 ways to spend your layover or spare time before/after your flight!

00:00 Intro

00:20 ✅ Explore NARITASAN OMOTESANDO
- Here’s a street that lasts about 800m with over 150 restaurants and souvenir shops. It prospers as a temple town from the Edo era, and you can see some of the remains from that time.

01:25 ✅ Try the delicious YAKI DANGO!
- Japanese dango are round glutinous rice flour (mochiko) dumplings that are served with a bamboo stick. On each skewer, there are typically three dango balls. We tried this Yaki Dango with miso sauce and it was so good! Price was ¥400.

02:01 ✅ Eat different STREET FOOD like this lamb skewers.
- There are a lot more types of street food you can find, especially when there are special traditional Japanese events. On this day we had this lamb skewers for ¥450.

03:19 ✅ Try their specialty UNAGI (freshwater eel).
- Narita is home to Lake Inbanuma, the Tone River, and Naganuma, where once upon a time people could catch freshwater fish such as Unagi. It’s usually pricey, but you could also try the skewers for only ¥350.

04:41 ✅ Visit the NARITASAN SHINSHOJI TEMPLE and the 3-storied pagoda.
- Naritasan Shinshoji Temple is a large and highly popular Buddhist temple complex in Narita. Admission is free, and you can also enjoy the beautiful pagoda.

07:33 ✅ Draw an OMIKUJI and find out your fortune.
- These are random fortunes written on strips of paper, which are usually received by making a small offering (usually ¥100) and randomly choosing one from a box, hoping for the resulting fortune to be good. We got “uncertain luck” this time 🥲

08:45 ✅ Stroll around NARITASAN PARK.
- It’s a large garden of 165,000sqm using the hilly land behind the Main Hall of Shinsho-ji Temple completed in 1928. There’s a lovely pond with koi too.

10:43 ✅ Visit the GREAT PEACE PAGODA.
- Also known as “Heiwa no Daito” is a 58m-tall structure that was built in 1984. You could visit the museum on the ground level too.

12:39 ✅ Try the sweet CANDY APPLE.
- Candied apples, ringo ame in Japanese, is a popular treat which you will always find at Japanese festivals. We were lucky to find a stall in Naritasan and the price was ¥300 for the small one.

13:46 ✅ Eat at ISOMARU SUISAN in front of Narita station.
- Before riding the train home, we had dinner at this restaurant located just in front of the station. If you love seafood, here’s the place to go! We got grilled squid, sashimi/seafood bowl for reasonable prices.
