Rocket News 24 posted a unique video shot by a tourist in Japan earlier this year.

Most of the places are familiar, but they are shown from the air.

According to Rocket News 24:

Now, chances are you’ve already seen many pictures and video footage from Japan, especially of tourist areas in cities like Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto. But this video, shared about a month ago on Vimeo, offers a look at these cities from a very unique perspective — from up in the air! The video, filmed by a tourist visiting Japan, was taken from the perspective of a remote-controlled drone attached with a camera. And while some of the shots captured are of well-known tourist spots, Internet users both inside and outside of Japan seem to have been impressed by how the unique angle gives the familiar scenes quite a new feel! Let’s see what some of the popular sites of Japan look like from up above.

Places shown include Osaka Castle, Kyoto, Mt. Fuji, Shinjuku, Shibuya and the Skytree.
