Um, so everything from, yes, oppressive humid heat in the summer, Japan is a very humid, muggy place in the summer.

日本的夏天非常潮溼、悶熱。

To winter, where there's snow, wonderful powder snow.

冬天，那裡有雪，美妙的粉雪。

Generally, the snow is only in the mountainous areas, the big cities like Tokyo generally don't get any snow.

一般來說，只有山區才會下雪，像東京這樣的大城市一般不會下雪。

Uh, Japan is generally colder, the more north you go.

一般來說，日本越往北越冷。

So, Hokkaido is the coldest.

所以，北海道是最冷的。

And Kyushu is the warmest.

而九州是最溫暖的地區。

Okay.

好的

Okinawa is the warmest, but speaking of the snow, if you are a snowbird, you like the snow, you like to snowboard, you like to ski, you will like the snow in Japan.

沖繩是最溫暖的地方，但說到雪，如果你是雪鳥，喜歡雪，喜歡滑雪板，喜歡滑雪，你一定會喜歡日本的雪。

It is generally regarded as powder snow, it is so light and fluffy that you can just blow it right off your hand.

它一般被視為粉雪，非常輕盈蓬鬆，可以直接用手吹開。

I think the best times to visit Japan are spring and fall.

我認為訪問日本的最佳時間是春季和秋季。

Spring, um, March, April are quintessential cherry blossom season, that is probably the number one best time to go.

春天，嗯，3 月、4 月是櫻花盛開的季節，這可能是第一最佳旅遊時間。

I think the weather is best in the spring.

我覺得春天的天氣最好。

Uh, it is not yet hot and humid.

呃，現在還不是溼熱天氣。

The cherry blossoms are blooming.

櫻花開了

So it's really quite beautiful.

所以它真的很美。

Note, the cherry blossoms also bloom earliest uh in the south and bloom latest in the north.

請注意，櫻花也是南方開得最早，北方開得最晚。

If you want to know when the best time is or where you're going, you can check out like these bloom sites, they have like predictions as to when they're going to bloom this year, on average when they've bloomed previous years.

如果你想知道最佳觀賞時間或你要去的地方，可以查看這些花期網站，它們會根據往年的平均花期預測今年的花期。

But it's best to travel the country from south to north doing it.

但最好還是從南到北遊遍全國。

Hoping that you'll catch it the most, the con of coming in the spring is it's going to be probably the most expensive.

希望你能趕上最多，但春天來的壞處是可能會最貴。

Uh, because that's actually when everybody wants to come during cherry blossom season.

因為櫻花季的時候大家都想來。

Another great time to come is definitely in the fall, fall is famous for the changing colors of the leaves across Japan.

秋季是來日本的另一個好時節，日本各地的紅葉因秋季變色而聞名。

Uh, I am here in November and I'm still, still wearing short sleeves as you've probably seen.

呃，我現在是十一月，但我仍然穿著短袖，你們可能也看到了。

So the weather can still be quite nice, um, especially in the big cities in the fall.

所以，天氣還是很不錯的，尤其是在大城市的秋天。

You'll find the hotel rates to be cheaper in the fall than in the spring.

您會發現秋季的酒店價格比春季便宜。

Chris, what about the summer?

克里斯，夏天怎麼辦？

Well, I told you one.

好吧，我告訴你一個。

The summer is uh hot and humid and really kind of quite miserable in the cities.

夏天又熱又潮溼，在城市裡真的很難受。

Uh, maybe better if you're going to the mountains, maybe better if you're going to Hokkaido.

呃，如果你要去山裡，去北海道可能會好些。

Uh, but two, the end of the summer is also like the rainy season.

呃，不過二，夏末也像雨季。

So it's going to be the hottest and it's also going to be the wettest.

是以，這將是最熱的一天，也將是最潮溼的一天。

But Japan does rain a lot, almost any season that you're in, and so I would highly recommend you bring an umbrella uh whatever season that you're in.

但日本雨水很多，幾乎任何季節都會下雨，是以我強烈建議您無論在哪個季節都帶一把雨傘。

If you don't want to bring one, know, I was chasing fly away.

如果你不想帶，你要知道，我是在趕蒼蠅。

Just know that uh 7-Eleven also sells tons of umbrellas for pretty cheap, like 500 yen.

要知道，7-Eleven 還出售大量雨傘，價格非常便宜，大約 500 日元。

So don't uh stand out getting soaked, pick an umbrella at a convenience store if you forgot to bring one.

所以，不要站在外面淋雨，如果忘了帶傘，可以去便利店買一把。

Uh, now if you wonder, Chris, how long should I go for on my first trip?

克里斯，如果你想知道，我第一次旅行應該去多久？

Uh, I would recommend at least a week, uh, and even better, two weeks.

我建議至少一週，最好兩週。

And now you might be wondering, Chris, how cold does it really get in the winter?

現在你可能想知道，克里斯，冬天到底有多冷？

Well, to answer that question, you might enjoy watching my video in the upper left where we visit the mountains of Fukushima prefecture in the winter and check out all the snow there.

要回答這個問題，您可能會喜歡看我左上角的視頻，在視頻中，我們參觀了福島縣冬季的山區，並欣賞了那裡的雪景。

And if you wonder what it looks like during cherry blossom season, well, in the upper right, you will find our guide to the Fuji Five Lakes area during cherry blossoms.
