滋賀春遊！近江閒度古運河 八幡芳拾櫻花間｜#一個略緩的頻道

This is "#ASlowerChannel". We don't rush; we simply record the scenery and flavors that make you want to stop and linger after wandering through the city's alleys. #WangQicun #Eddie In this episode, we visit Omihachiman, Shiga Prefecture's most poetic tourist destination. In the spring, when cherry blossoms are in full bloom, we board a traditional houseboat and slowly cruise along the 400-year-old Hachimanbori. This waterway is not just a beautiful sight; it was also designed by Toyotomi Hidetsugu, the "chief architect" of the time. Over four hundred years ago, he dug the canal at the foot of Mount Tsurukubi, introducing merchants and laying the foundation for the city's centuries-long commercial and cultural prosperity with his visionary aesthetics. Today, what was once a military vision has become a beautiful cultural heritage in our eyes. This time, we won't talk about war or business battles. Just stroll through Hachiman, watch the cherry blossoms fall like snow; leisurely spend time in Omi, and "collect" the historical imprints gently left by time among the cherry blossoms. 📍 Video Chapters 00:00 Stepping into the Edo Period: An Introduction to the Hachimanbori Artificial Moat 01:05 The Historical Origins of Toyotomi Hidetsugu, the "Chief Designer," and Omi Merchants 01:34 Yakata-no-Boat Experience: Close-up View of Cherry Blossom Trails 01:53 Wandering Through Machiya and Shirakabe Warehouses: Well-Preserved Ancient Building Complexes 02:25 The Golden Waterway Connecting Kyoto and Lake Biwa 03:10 A Leading Urban Design: The Grid-Type Drainage System 04:17 The Boatman's Blessing: Five Elements (Connection) and the Offering of Jizo 04:46 A Challenge Spanning 400 Years: The Civic Movement of the 1970s and the Truth Behind Dredging 06:19 Visiting Himourei Hachimangu Shrine: The Guardian of the God of War and Merchants 08:19 Shrine Ritual Culture: The Horse Offering Tradition and the 1500-Year History of Fire Festivals 09:41 A 40,000-square-meter sacred site: Eternal lamps and a thousand-year-old shrine #TravelExpert #AroundTheWorld #Omihachiman #ShigaPrefecture #JapanTravel #CherryBlossomSeason #YagataBori #Hachimanbori #ToyotomiHidetsugu #HimoureiHachimanGongyu #OmiMerchant #JapanRoadTrip #EdoPeriod #HistoricalBuildings #TravelPhotography #Omihachiman #ShigaJapan #JapanSakura #Hachimanbori #JapanTravel2026 #SamuraiHistory #CherryBlossom #TravelVlog #HistoricalJapan 😊Watch our program here👇 Taiwan Kuo Hsing TV's "Around the World" and "TravelExpert" Daily premiere 08:00-09:00, 12:00-13:00 👉A collaboration with Dongfeng TV, JET Comprehensive Channel, and ETtoday 😊Follow us & more travel videos Subscribe to this channel👉 https://bit.ly/3z0xVzL Follow us on Facebook 👉 https://bit.ly/3JnAoJe Follow us on Instagram 👉 https://bit.ly/3yJRgFc 😊Contact us on LINE@ 👉 @lottotour https://page.line.me/dmb0566a #WangQicun #XiaoWang #Eddie Opening template: Videezy's behind-the-scenes footage http://www.videezy.com
