15 July 2010 - Today I start my adventure with the
Japan Rail Pass. The last time I did something similar was when I was 16 and train-traveled Holland, but I feel just as excited. Trains are probably the best way for any tourist to move around in Japan as all trains are punctual, comfortable, dependable, safe and super-clean. Train stations are normally located in the center of the cities, so it is a great way to arrive at a new destination. It is my plan to take the famous Shinkansen bullet train from Kyoto to Tokyo later this week. I start with the Hida Limited Express, which runs from Takayama to Nagoya. It has specially designed wide-view vehicles for panoramic scenes of the beautiful forests deep in the mountains along the Hida River.
