Comment from Kasumi Ishikawa
I grew up in Yamaguchi City, and have many fond memories of my beloved hometown.
In creating this video, I visited places both new to me, and old haunts. I was able to get a new appreciation for the wonders of Yamaguchi, my beloved place of birth, and have fun getting great shots.
Delicious food, hot springs, history, culture and more: this video is a concentration of the best of Yamaguchi City. I hope you’ll watch it, and that as many people as possible will come visit my city.
