Osaka to Hiroshima Japan’s Daytime Bus 🚌3-row seat with bathroom



I took a daytime bus from Osaka to Hiroshima. 3 rows of seats with toilet so very comfortable. Also, the seats on both sides have curtains so it looks like a private room. It takes more time than the Shinkansen, but the fare is about half that of the Shinkansen. I think it is a good choice for budget travelers who have more time to spare.
Enjoy your trip!

#OkonomiyakiIsTheBest #solotravel #solotraveljapan #japantravel #asmr #backpacker

Umm… I want to eat something tasty other than McDonald’s Is there someplace good to eat? About 5.5 hours by bus Head to the bus terminal located right next to JR Osaka Station Our bus to Hiroshima departs at 10:30 a.m. Our bus arrived Very clean, shiny body Wow! It’s nice

Three rows of seats allow you to sit comfortably without touching the person next to you Best of all, this bus has a bathroom! My seat is right behind the bathroom But it didn’t smell at all It’s wonderful that it’s so spacious And if you draw the curtains, it looks like a private room

Electricity outlet on each seat Seat width is not bad Departure on time at 10:30 a.m. We got on the highway as soon as we left Good-bye, Osaka Unlike night buses, day buses allow passengers to enjoy the outside scenery! I like it.

If you close the curtains, others will not be able to see your ugly sleeping face, and you can even pick your nose in secret Our bus entered Himeji city Himeji is famous for Himeji Castle, which is listed as a World Heritage Site Hmm? Ninja and a high school girl?

First bathroom break 1 hour and 20 minutes after leaving Osaka 10-minute bathroom break It is deathly cold outside, so I buy hot tea It rarely snows in this area, but it is deathly cold! Be careful if you come to Japan in winter!

If you can’t stand the cold, you can buy clothes at UNIQLO By the way, my clothes today are all from UNIQLO except for my down jacket! Shut out! Phew, it’s warm I miss the warmth of human skin… Cheers to the privacy curtain It started to rain I wish it was sunny in Hiroshima

Why am I so cold? Of course, the bus interior is heated, but I don’t have the courage to take off my down jacket Sometimes there are American tourists wearing half-sleeves even in winter, but what the hell are they? It is extremely quiet inside the Bus What are the other passengers doing?

Are they freezing in the Japanese winter like me? But I really appreciate being able to enjoy the scenery The night bus is so dark that you can’t even see where you are going Now we are in Okayama Prefecture It is in the middle of Osaka and Hiroshima Second bathroom break

Again we are given a 10 minute bathroom break I go outside for a change, even if I don’t have to pee This place is famous for “Momotaro” “Momotaro” is a well-known story in Japan

It’s a story about a dog, a monkey, and a pheasant who get dumplings from Momotaro and go to fight off demons I haven’t eaten anything since this morning and I’m starving In the end, I peed 200ml I think the rain has stopped and it’s starting to sunny up. It is deathly cold, though

Look at that blue sky! Please weather God, please let it be sunny in Hiroshima! Japan’s highway speed limit is 100 km/h (62.137 mph) We are finally in Hiroshima Prefecture! 3rd bathroom break Same 10-minute break as before Open Sesame! It’s always this old gentleman and me going to the bathroom

We go together every time, so we must look like best friends to other people By the way, we haven’t exchanged a single word Best friends don’t need words to communicate, we can communicate with our hearts Get a stamp! My hunger is already over the limit

However, I am not going to eat anything now to truly enjoy that dish in Hiroshima I don’t know who said it, but I think it is very true that “Hunger is the best sauce.” I drown my hunger in tea Finally our bus exits the highway and heads for the first drop-off point

Bus arrives at its first destination, Saijo Station Many passengers got off here Is this city so big? I had never heard of Saijo City, so I googled it The internet says “Saijo is one of the three major Sake brewing places in Japan, following Fushimi in Kyoto and Nada in Kobe”

I didn’t know that! That means the water from here must be delicious Come to think of it, I can see a lot of wonderful mountains If I had come here by bullet train (Shinkansen), I would not have known anything about Saijo City Thanks, daytime bus! We arrive at Hiroshima Station

Thanks Chugoku JR Bus Hiroshima Station is very large as the Shinkansen also stops here! Hurry up, Hiro! Your purpose of this trip is to eat delicious food! I’m starving to death I head to a place I had Googled in advance What I really wanted to eat in Hiroshima was Okonomiyaki! Here it is!

There are many okonomiyaki restaurants here Every restaurant must be delicious Okay, I decided to go here where I can sit at the counter There are too many varieties to understand, so I order a Basic Okonomiyaki! This is what I wanted to see That’s a lot of cabbage

Okonomiyaki is a dish with more vegetables than I thought Ta-dah! It’s beautiful! Ohhhhhhhhh! It’s Super delicious! It was right to come here in the morning without eating anything I can’t believe that just one okonomiyaki can make me so happy I’m going to buy some after dinner snacks Apparently, lemons are famous here in Hiroshima I’ve never seen a lemon Hi-chu before In a place famous for its sake, how could one not buy sake? The label on this sake is really cool Sake jelly??? I’d like to give it a try!

Tonight’s party is gonna be fun And speaking of Hiroshima, streetcars I definitely want to try this! But I have no idea how to ride it… After 5 minutes of reading the instructions, I feel like maybe even I can ride it!

It is within walking distance to the hotel, but I would love to take a ride!  Give it a try, Hiro! And there’s get off button that makes me nervous every time I take the bus! I hate it! I thought the streetcars stopped at every station

Of course, I’m too nervous to enjoy the scenery right now Because I don’t know when the drop-off station is coming Can you feel my nervousness? But I’m really glad it’s not raining The time has come! Phew, I did it! Thank you, first streetcar of my life The platform is so narrow…

Huh? What should I do from here? I see, I can wait here until the crosswalk signal turns green This is the hotel I’m staying at tonight Very conveniently located only 5 seconds from the station And there is convenience store and I have no complaints Check in and got a key Security is excellent

Damn big shoes… Hmm? Rural people don’t know how to use the high-tech keys I made it! Set of amenity items Hiro learned how to use the high-tech keys Hiro’s travel skill level increased by 1 Wow, that’s a very large room This is my secret base tonight

The Ninja technique “Sliding Entry” for capsule room Pajamas Bath towel Face towel Comb Razor Body towel Mask slippers Toothbrush It’s time to shower The Ninja technique “Sliding Entry” 2nd Here is the solo party room for tonight It’s time for a solo party! Sake Jelly The color is clear

It’s sake, so it’s no surprise jiggly And I have a bad news here I was so focused on Jiggly that I forgot to take a video of eating Taste? I couldn’t really tell because my tongue is stupid Today’s Main Dish Japanese sake “Kamotsuru” with 14 % alcohol Cheers to Hiroshima!

Yum! It tastes like an adult Yeah, it’s good… What is Lemosco? I see… lemon-flavored Lemosco, inspired by the Mexican pepper sauce Tabasco. Wait! This is soooooo good! What the heck, I’ve never had such a tasty snack before. Perfect

Totally unrelated right now, but the American TV show “Prison Break” is interesting. I’ve been watching them obsessively lately. And “Modern Family” is fun, too. I highly recommend this Tomorrow is early, so the solo party is over Today I’m going to Itsukushima Shrine, a World Heritage Site.

Take the JR train to Miyajimaguchi Station, where the ferry terminal is located. Arrive at Miyajima-guchi Station in about 25 minutes It’s still dark outside. Did I come a little too early? Even convenience store that are supposed to be open 24 hours a day is closed

Arrive at the ferry terminal in about 5 minutes on foot Round-trip ticket 500 yen Sailings every 15 minutes I came too early and there’s no one here Winter mornings in Japan are so cold There is nothing to do until the ferry departs, so I walk around and warm myself up

A ferry came from Miyajima Oh, I’m getting excited Oh! Ferries take cars too! It looks warm inside, but I’m going to the observation deck Oh, what a beautiful morning glow I was right to wake up early Departure at 07:05 Regardless of how big or small, ferries are still the best!

But the cold wind from the ocean began to freeze my face… I met western woman who is a stamp collector like me! Good morning, deer You cannot feed the deer here, unlike the deer in Nara. What a beautiful vermilion torii gate standing in the sea!

These are barrels of Sake dedicated to Itsukushima Shrine Itsukushima Shrine is so beautiful that you can take photogenic photos everywhere! None of the stores are open until 10:00, so I warm up like a tortoise in the sun Nothing to do… I feel like the crows are laughing at me… Hiroshima’s famous Momiji-manju

It is a sponge cake in the shape of a maple leaf and filled with sweet bean paste! Yum “Please touch me gently” Lol I want it “Don’t come in. I’m pooping right now” Miyajima’s specialty, ladle Animation Freak Muscle freak

It seems that if you buy this, they will write your name on it. They also write foreign names in Japanese characters Charm written in Hiroshima dialect These are also like good luck charms I’ll take this “Men should be tough” This guy who doesn’t like the cold will probably be tough from today

Hiroshima’s famous oyster Eating good oysters was another purpose of this trip Cheers to Miyajima Oh my god, it’s so plump and rich! It’s soooo Good I’m very satisfied I’m going back to the main island Thank you Miyajima, Itsukushima Shrine and plump oysters I’ll take the streetcar on the way back

This is my second time on the streetcar, so I’m feeling rather relaxed about it. I’ll even be able to afford to look out at the ocean I was so comfortable that I fell asleep. The next thing I knew, I was at the station where I was getting off

Origami cranes are part of the traditional Japanese culture of origami, which today is considered a symbol of peace My trip is coming to an end But I’m going to go to eat now because I can’t forget that insanely delicious dish! I’ll take this restaurant today

I wonder how many okonomiyaki they cook a day? Super Yum In my opinion, this is the number one delicious food in the world! Then I’m going home Thank you for watching I hope your trip is great too! I am about to start solo party, so please excuse me
