With a rail network of nearly 28,000 km and impeccable onboard service, the train is undoubtedly the best way to get around Japan and discover, at your own pace, the splendor and variety of the archipelago's landscapes. And, in this country where railway culture is deeply rooted, traveling by train also offers an insight into a whole new side of Japanese life.
In this beautiful book, our authors offer 12 train itineraries spanning 4 to 14 days across Japan, from the northern island of Hokkaido to the southwest island of Kyushu. From the classic urban route connecting Tokyo to Osaka—for a first-time visitor—to a tour of rural and maritime Japan, including a special onsen itinerary or a series of secret excursions around Kyoto, there's something for everyone.
In this illustrated book you will find some very beautiful photos:
- A detailed day-by-day program for each route, written like a travel story.
- Very comprehensive practical information for each of the journeys.
- Thematic double pages providing insight into the country's culture (the Japanese and nature, religiosity in Japan, onsen, samurai and geishas…).
