We Found One of Japan's Most Underrated Cities 🇯🇵 | Otsu, Shiga Vlog Could Otsu, Shiga be one of Japan's most underrated cities? In this vlog, we spend the day exploring this hidden gem just outside Kyoto. We begin with a pottery workshop at Karahashi-yaki Kiln, where we experience traditional Japanese craftsmanship firsthand. Afterwards, we visit the historic Mii-dera Temple (Onjo-ji), a stunning Buddhist temple with over 1,200 years of history and some of the best views in the area. To end the day, we enjoy a delicious meal at Yaotara Izakaya, discovering the warmth and flavour of local Japanese dining.
