The train is the most convenient way to travel in Japan
There are Shinkansen bullet trains, similar to France’s TGVs, which are operated by the national railway companies. There are also many private railway companies, some of which have successfully developed large department stores around their stations. On top of that, major cities have extensive subway networks. There are even train “nerds” who photograph them from every possible angle. A bit like me…
A few Tokyo trains: the Yamanote Line platform (in green) at Nihonbashi, the yellow Chuo Line at Nakano, and the orange Sobu Line.
Some trains in Kyoto. These photos were taken on the way to Arashiyama. The station is very beautiful, and there are plenty of displays and activities to give visitors a warm welcome.
