Ride Japan's World-Class Bullet Train 🚄 Shinkansen "Asama" from Tokyo to Nagano

Continue Video: • Go to the most scenic ...
This time, I enjoyed a one-day trip alone from Tokyo Station to Nagano Station.
The Hokuriku Shinkansen "Asama" train stopped at every station, and although it took a long time, I was able to enjoy the scenery from the train window at a leisurely pace.
I traveled on JR East Japan's "Somewhere to View" project, a ticket where you do not know where your destination will be until you apply for the ticket.
The ticket was for a destination at one of four stations (Oishida, Ninohe, Niigata, and Nagano), and as a result of a lottery, I ended up at Nagano Station.
It was fun and adventurous not knowing where the destination would be. It was a new and exciting experience for me, as it was a destination that I would not normally have chosen.
Round-trip fare: 6,000JPY 🇯🇵 (actually paid in points) / 45USD 🇺🇸
Time: 1 hour 48 minutes
Route: Tokyo - Nagano
Train name: Asama 603

By the way, the train design of the Hokuriku Shinkansen is excellent and was done by Kiyoyuki Okuyama, who worked on the Ferrari Enzo.

    5:10 Thank you for showing the luggage storage, because I was wondering what kind it is or how big it is and if it is where I was thinking it to be. I will be traveling from Nagano to Tokyo on May and this video helped me.

    Hello! May I know which side of the train were you seated? And which side do you think has the best view going to Nagano? Thanks in advance! :)

    Thanks for your comment. If you're going to sit down, it's on the right side when looking in the direction of travel. Once you pass Karuizawa, you can see Mt. Asama and the mountains of Shinshu!

    Are there any signs at the stations in English for non Japanese speaking people 🤔

    Don't worry, most signs are written in English and there are station staff who can speak English.
