Viaje PANORÁMICO BUS DOS PISOS JAPÓN OSAKA TOKIO: JR Gran Dream | Van Hool Astromega Scania
Hello, hello everyone, how are you? I am ‘Ariel Cruz Pizarro’ and in this episode of the series ‘Ando en Bus’ we will travel in a panoramic seat of the double-decker bus of ‘Japan’ doing the trip ‘Osaka – Tokyo’ in one of the comfortable cradle seats ‘Gran Dream’ of this wonderful European bus ‘Van Hool Astromega’ ‘Scania’ daytime trip with many landscapes today we travel from ‘Osaka’ to ‘Tokyo’ trip of about 8 hours crossing ‘Japan’, with some intermediate stops Welcome! During the night I traveled on the beautiful bus ‘Dream Relier’ I was very happy traveling on a ‘Premium’ bus service in ‘Japan’ that I showed in another video, and I arrived early in the morning to ‘Osaka’ specifically to the ‘JR’ bus terminal of the ‘JR Osaka’ station Tuesday, November 26, 2024, 07:30 in the morning so I toured the surroundings of the station, which are beautiful surroundings, many shopping centers, buildings high, shops are busy areas, but, at the same time, since it is ‘Japan’ it is very safe, walkable and fun to explore ‘JR’ is ‘Japan Railways’, the Japanese railways this is the ‘Osaka’ station of ‘JR’, we will use the “JR Expressway Bus” which is the ‘JR’ bus terminal, and these facilities are from ‘Nishinihon JR Bus’, the bus subsidiary that has ‘JR West’, ‘Nishi’ is west, ‘Nihon’ is ‘Japan’ so yes, the train companies here also have bus services although they operate with separate administrations ‘Nishiba-kun’, the friendly official character of the bus company guides us to the ticket offices of the bus terminal inside, we have padded seats in a waiting room as well as some machines to buy coffee, soft drinks, liquids brochures to help you on your trip an area for people with disabilities is simple, but complete, and fortunately there were not so many people there. facilities also include public bathrooms, clean and free to buy tickets, you can do it through self-service machines in different languages and if you know Japanese, there are also ticket offices with people who serve you outside, there are locker services to store your luggage. On the screens it appears that our bus leaves from platform 2. The logical thing, then, is to look for number 2 in the terminal and once you find this boarding area, then you stop to wait in line (arrival of the double-decker bus from ‘Japan’, trip 10:10 ‘Osaka – Tokyo’) (ambient sound) (ambient sound) my ticket has a ‘QR’ code, they scan it and I can get on the bus . I am the first passenger to get on, we are looking at the first floor but I have to go up because we will travel upstairs . We have these seats, which I call them zebra seats, for zebras the animals, because of the stripes and colors, they are wide and comfortable seats from the ‘Gran Dream’ category, one of the best services that these buses have ‘JR’, ‘Japan Railways’ my seat is 1C, window, single, upstairs there is an area for small packages. This is the view of my seat with its recline and space. Impeccable we have the complete view of the panoramic window, we are going to really enjoy these ‘Gran Dream’ seats, they have adjustable padding in the head area , the panoramic seats come with a very comfortable three-point seat belt and the seats that are further back have a simple seat belt , there is a recline lever and electrical connection with ‘USB’ ports , you can see my cell phone charging in the ‘USB’ port and on the other side I have coasters or to put bottles with a lever that is under the seat, I can deploy a leg rest and These panoramic seats have another rectangular footrest, if you look here you see me sitting, starting to enjoy this epic trip on the double-decker bus of ‘Japan’, a dream come true, certainly forward, in addition to the views, I have a large space to stretch my legs. I am 1.70 meters tall and I am super well above my head, I have reading lights and an air conditioning outlet on the sides, I have privacy curtains, I can unfold them so that no one sees me during the trip all seats have that in front of me there is a clock, which also indicates when the bathroom is occupied, on the side I have a mesh case, the bus heating goes on and we have a bell, on the trip they announce stops and if you get off, you ring the bell like a bus (bus driver: our bus is the Great Hiru Tokkyu 8 bound for ‘Shinjuku’ and ‘Tokyo’ station) we are already outside the ‘JR Osaka’ station in the area of the ‘Osaka’ and ‘Umeda’ stations, I do the distinction in plural stations, because there are several railways and subway lines with stations, here there are many stations, an extremely busy labyrinth, about 2 million people circulate only in this area of these stations and the ‘Keihanshin’, this metropolitan area of ’Osaka’, ‘Kyoto’, ‘Kobe’, ‘Nara’ and other cities, there are about 20 million people more than all of ‘Chile’ in a single metropolis, I probably say it or tell it in all these videos of ‘Japan’ but really for me it is a privilege and a blessing to be able to be here to be able to live this in first person and also to be able to share these memories, these adventures, I was able to live them I want you to relax, to enjoy I lend you my eyes, my memories, my knowledge, my experience so that you can live this trip as I lived it and you can see what I could see ‘Osaka’ is an impressive metropolis, and through this double-decker bus and this panoramic window, we will be able to see ‘Osaka’ but also everything the trip to ‘Tokyo’ with luxury of details , I love public transport, it is my great passion to travel by bus, it is something that I love, traveling by double-decker bus even more and doing this daytime trip, in a panoramic window, in a country so distant and so beautiful, it has an emotional component for several people, it is one more trip in their lives. There are many videos of double-decker bus trips in ‘Japan’ but for me the trip to ‘Japan’ was the great trip of my entire life. It took me about 5 years. saving to travel, I spent everything I became a duck as we say in ‘Chile’, haha, I returned without a single one, fleeced and if I return, it will probably take me much longer saving but it was honestly worth it , I did not think I could live this I mean, I did dream of visiting ‘Japan’ since I was a child but one sees it as something very far away because it is very expensive I wanted to visit it for the transportation, but also for the culture it is a country that attracts my attention and fascinates me like many of you who, perhaps, They also have this desire to come and see ‘Japan’ on the trip through ‘Japan’ I had to use a lot of memory cards, I used up all of them, I had to buy more. I ended up using about 30 cards in a town near Mount ‘Fuji’, I bought these candies are mountains with white chocolate, strawberry and milk chocolate oh, what a great idea and what a delight. Look, look, look, Boom! Topón and pa’ inside I ate Mount ‘Fuji’, hahahahaha we are close to a stop and the bells lit up maybe someone pressed the bell and that’s why they look like this this is one of the rivers of ‘Kyoto’, it should be the ‘Katsura’ river, it passes near the bamboo forest, and is a tributary of the ‘Yodo’ river that we saw in ‘Osaka’ and this is the stop, ‘Kyoto Fukakusa’ is a small stop in the road, very, very small, I was left with the doubt of how a person could get to that place because you can see nothing, it is in nowhere and I found a video on ‘Google’ of an access through stairs that explains the mystery to me because the highway is super elevated going up or down with packages, that does seem quite uncomfortable there are direct buses that arrive at the ‘Kyoto’ station, not at ‘Kyoto Fukakusa’ but those that start or end in ‘Kyoto’ are the ones that continue to ‘Osaka’ They use this stop, ‘Kyoto Fukakusa’, on the road with otherness there are several things that catch my attention ‘Japan’ is a very silent country, the highways are full of noise barriers and they have many customs with noise if you go on public transport, or on this bus also making phone calls, talking or talking loudly listening to loud music without headphones, making noises in general is something very offensive They may catch your attention, it looks ugly. People travel in silence, I do this spoken narration in my house, in ‘Chile’ but on the trip, I am silent, contemplating (this is how the trip sounds, everyone is silent) for good or bad fortune, just this day there are forecasts of clouds and rain on the route, suddenly droplets of rain began to fall that fell more and more often (ambient sound) the screen tells us the next stop: ‘Konan’ parking area, ‘Parking Area’ are rest places on the road for motorists, trucks and these buses, all the buses that I saw make intermediate rest stops, the bus was absolutely empty. I all get off the same way because I have a lot to take advantage of, there is a lot to do (ambient sound) the bus leaves at 11:57, it’s a 20 minute stop , this area is a ninja area, that’s a lot of fun, so the shops and businesses in ‘Konan’ have this ninja theme. Something that I liked about ‘Japan’ is that each place has an identity, it’s not copy and paste, they are not the same buildings in all the cities but each place, including these road stops, has its own charm. and personality , the bus has parking stops and obviously , I took advantage of this stop in ‘Konan ‘ to photograph and record the bus in all its corners , this wonderful double-decker bus ‘Van Hool Astromega’ with ‘Scania’ chassis , first time I have traveled on a European bus, and what better way to do it than in ‘Japan’ in these conditions, on these wonderful routes . Furthermore, I just got the ‘Nishinihon’ that has these pink lines, it is the most beautiful double-decker bus in ‘Japan’, in my opinion a true gem, very beautiful (ambient sound) the bus driver saw me taking photos and invited me to see the cabin of the bus we see that it has a ‘GPS’ screen with the route and has a direct view of the security cameras on the windshield there is a third eye and those numbers are the temperature on the first and second floor, between 23 and 25° Celsius this is the sheet with the schedule with all the stops and schedules to be met the bus had about 950,000 km, and the fuel tank is at 94% 16° ‘Celsius’ on the outside thank you very much, how nice it is to see and experience these things in first person the love for public transport has led me to experience so many beautiful things hour’s up, 11:57, we have to leave to continue the trip there is ‘Nishiba-kun’, giving some information the mascot of these buses, he seems like a great character on the one hand, it’s sad that it’s raining, I think it was the only day that It rained that whole week and it was just on this daytime bus trip but on the other hand, I couldn’t stop smiling I don’t know almost any Japanese I only know the Japanese that one hears in animes, hahaha but the bus driver still spoke to me, he was very kind I could understand him, he invited me to the cabin I am traveling in the most beautiful bus in all of ‘Japan’ this bus is ‘Scania’, but it has a silent engine and a wonderful suspension look, if you have headphones, listen, you are going to listen the softness of the bus and the contrast with the rain (sound of the bus ‘Van Hool Astromega’ – ‘Scania’, and the rain in ‘Japan’) ‘Japan’ has many impressive things, and one of them is the infrastructure, we are crossing a huge river on a super long suspension bridge and on the other side is the mouth, towards where I am, on the right is the sea, the ‘Pacific’ ocean, all that is the sea, we are almost next to the sea on the island, it is the park ‘Nagashima Spa Land’ a huge and famous amusement park with the longest roller coaster in the world, with hot springs, with many things I don’t know what all these bridges are called but the highway has many of these bridges in the ‘Nagoya’ area we are passing along the coast of the city of ‘Nagoya’ passing through the port area where there are many cars ready to be exported on ships in the vicinity of ‘Nagoya’ there are ‘Toyota’ and ‘Mitsubishi’ factories a lot of automobile production and on this island, among several things, there is the railway museum of ‘Nagoya’ which is wonderful and I was able to see it , I was able to experience it in first person ohhh, the trip to ‘Japan’ was very nice, really from the bus it is impressive to be able to see and enjoy these views of ‘Nagoya’ from this suspension bridge and in these circumstances even with the rain, it seemed like a fascinating moment again, I am on the first floor of the bus. We are looking at the bathroom door and now we see the detail with the 10 economical seats that this area of the bus has next to the access door, there are cameras and below there is space for a wheelchair and/or luggage. We are going to enter the bathroom. This is the general view, and yes, since the bus is lower, the roof is low so that it touches the head. In the door there is a mirror handrail, the doors close with a lock, there is a coat rack where I put my banana bag. Handrail the button with lights is to flush the toilet, we see a small emergency button sink. This is a gel to clean the toilet, very typical of ‘Japan’ and we have a toilet paper dispenser in the bathroom you must sit down, you cannot smoke and you can do one and two down on the floor, there is a small trash can for sanitary things, sanitary towels but in ‘Japan’, you must throw the toilet papers in the toilet together, and on the bus the same rule applies (ambient sound) ‘Japan’ is a super mountainous country and something that also caught my attention in the shinkansen trips and this highway trip, is that the roads here are elevated, at least this highway, they do not follow the relief of the mountains, instead of having winding paths, the road simply has long viaducts, bridges, or tunnels but it rarely has detours, curves or slopes, avoiding the geography and the slopes are gentle, so the route is perceived almost as if it were flat, which makes the trips very expeditious but also speaks of the complexity of this highway. on a piece of paper I wrote the ‘Youtube’ channel to the driver, I didn’t bring business cards, but something was done Bus driver: thank you for traveling soon we will be arriving at the ‘Michi-no-eki Mokkulu Shinshiro’ stop please be careful when getting off I don’t know the driver’s name but I like to think that someday he will be able to see the video I hope he sees it, a big greeting from ‘Chile’, or that his family sees it, too and it will be a nice tribute to preserve his voice for the posterity as you say, we are arriving at ‘Mokkulu Shinshiro’, the next rest area here in ‘Shinshiro’, I also took many photos of the bus , I thanked the bus driver again, I gave him the paper and it was time, because here they work with posts or relays, so he left the bus and another colleague will take the bus to ‘Tokyo’, he got off and goes to rest and this is an ‘Isuzu Gala’ with ‘Gran Dream’ service, what an elegant bus! from the rest area, this vending machine or drinks machine was full of ‘Pikachu’, ‘Pokemon’ the stop is also 20 minutes, it is ideal to stretch your legs go to the bathroom and buy delicious things to eat in this place there were many things that looked very delicious it was time for lunch, I was hungry for 490 yen, I bought a ‘Coca Cola’, and I bought an orange tea cake it was good, very nice, super delicious, it was worth the money. Pity in the meantime, let’s see the official name of this European double-decker bus is ‘Scania J-Intercity DD’ imported and represented by ‘Scania Japan’ the body is ‘Van Hool Astromega TDX24’, Belgian brand and the chassis and engine is ‘Scania’, Swedish brand we have 29 ‘Gran Dream’ seats on the second floor wide seats, 2-1 configuration and on the first floor we have 10 economical ‘Seishun Eco’ seats, configuration 2-2 the Japanese version is special because of its measurements, it is almost 12 meters long and the height is 3.79 meters, it is short in ‘Latin America’, the ‘Marcopolo Paradiso 1800 DD G8’ and other buses They are 4.10 meters high, in addition to being longer, on the ‘Scania Japan’ website there is the technical sheet with the bus and how it is offered in this market, making calculations with the fuel tank and what I saw in ‘Konan’ the bus would yield about 3 km/liter of diesel approximately. I took some screenshots of the ‘Scania Japan’ website so we have a historical record of how they offer this double-decker bus. I put the translation in English and we see all the characteristics that stand out about this European bus. They also call it ‘Scania Astromega’ here we see the active safety equipment the ‘Scania’ buses in ‘Chile’ and ‘Latin America’ also have these things I share the bibliography of the file a huge thank you to all those who love public transport and publish their adventures, data, photos and curiosities Ticket! This is my ticket, bus ‘Gran Hiru Tokkyu 8’ from ‘JR Osaka’ station to ‘Tokio’ station, ‘Nihombashi’ side 6,400 Japanese yen, 42 US dollars or 40 thousand Chilean pesos I made a table with the schedules of the ‘JR’ buses from ‘Tokyo’ to ‘Osaka’, ‘Kyoto’ and ‘Nara’ we see the prices of day buses and night buses travel at night it is more expensive (‘Tokaido Shinkansen’ train crossing at ‘Odawara’ station, Series ‘N700A’) How beautiful to see! My trip cost about 40 US dollars for the bus trip and traveling by ‘Shinkansen’ or ‘Japan’ bullet train, from ‘Osaka’ to ‘Tokyo’ costs about 100 dollars and even more. The bus is almost half as cheap, but in terms of time there is a big difference. The fastest train, the ‘Nozomi’ train, takes 2 and a half hours and the ‘Kodama’ train, which stops at all stations, takes 4 hours. The bus trip helps dimension the incredible speed of the trains because we travel 8 hours I bought the ticket on the ‘Japan Expressway Bus Net’ website, a friendly website, in English, that allows you to buy the services of the ‘JR’ buses that use ‘JR’ station terminals. Booking this bus is easy, but reserving the panoramic seats is already more difficult because they are sold out first, you have to buy them as soon as they come out as a purchasing procedure, you choose your seat, enter your personal information and when you confirm, you receive an email so you can confirm another Once the reservation is made there, you can pay, we pay from ‘Chile’ with a Chilean credit card and when paying, you download the ticket in ‘PDF’ and with the ‘QR’ code you enter the bus. This trip from ‘Tokyo’ to ‘Osaka’ is made by ‘Nishinihon JR Bus’ and also by ‘JR Bus Kanto’, the paint changes and depends on the company reviewing, the night before, I photographed and recorded this bus leaving 9:50 p.m., ‘Tokyo’ station to ‘Osaka’ and on the road, I caught an old ‘Mitsubishi Fuso Aero King’ bus from the ’80s, tremendous surprise in the description of all the videos there is the link to the ‘Super Map’ you can geographically locate each video this trip will be at the bus terminal of the ‘JR Osaka’ station a warm thank you and greeting to the members of the channel who give a ‘Super Thanks’, you who subscribe and all the beautiful people that I have accompanied as a writer through my books, I am a writer and book editor, if you like what I do, you will love my books and thank you very much for betting on my dreams by resuming the trip , I was with a smile that that dream and that crazy, ambitious idea, was fulfilled of course, from the outside it may seem like a simple trip on a double-decker bus, a very normal chronicle. I have traveled on double-decker buses in ‘Chile’, in ‘Argentina’, in ‘Brazil’, etc. and I love it but, for us in ‘Latin America’, traveling to ‘Japan’ is expensive . I lived a dream come true. Many of us dream of visiting ‘Japan’ but our Latin American countries do not have such strong economies . We have to save a lot. You have to work a lot for this. If you come to ‘Japan’, for a few days, it is unlikely that you will travel. on this bus because it takes you the whole day when you travel you try to run, to explore the cities to know as much as possible and you have to make the most of your time and that is the richness that I value, and with that I smile when I think about this that I was able to take the time to travel and dedicate the entire day to getting to know ‘Japan’ through this bus to enchant myself with its geography, and also with this wonderful highway that I still find impressive that it has no slopes that is so fluid, so harmonious. And be careful, it is built like this on purpose, building all these viaducts and tunnels must have been very expensive but the experience was worth every yen, it really is a spectacular highway (ambient sound) with raindrops falling on us on the left we see the majestic Mount ‘Fuji’ we cannot see the top because there are clouds but at least, with what I showed them of the ‘Shinkansen’ they saw Mount ‘Fuji’ on a clear day, I was able to show them anyway Mount ‘Fuji’ is one one of the great symbols of ‘Japan’, its most famous mountain and it is also an active volcano, the beloved ‘Fujisan’ (the blue dot is our location on the ‘Shin-Tomei’ highway, ‘E1A’) (more and more raindrops are falling, listen!) (manual focus! now we can see the ‘Isuzu Gala’ bus from ‘Kanachu’) (ambient sound) on the other hand, part of the way we do it on the slopes of another mountain , Mount ‘Ashitaka’ and from the foot of this mountain we can see the coast and we will see the sea, the ‘Pacific’ ocean and also the land between this mountain and the sea. That seems magical to me, being on a road in the mountain but being able to see the sea, and the cities that are below us too, down there, there are the ‘Tokaido Shinkansen’ trains, the bullet train service between ‘Tokyo’, ‘Kyoto’ and ‘Osaka’ at 4:00 p.m., we stop by a stop in the city of ‘Gotemba’ this beautiful whereabouts. I was not fortunate enough to visit that city but from the little I know there are several buses from ‘Tokyo’ that go to some shopping centers, premium outlets and there is a bus that connects this stop with those shopping centers automated announcement: ‘Ashigara Service Area’ (service area) bus driver speaks and gives details of the next stop / autumn looks beautiful! yes, well, I don’t understand almost anything the driver says but I know what it is: it’s our last rest stop before ‘Tokyo’ it’s incredible how many trucks there are in ‘Japan’ cargo transport has planes, boats, trains now some bullet trains also do cargo service but the bulk continue moving in trucks (ambient sound) 30 minute stop, we leave at 4:38 pm we are in the ‘Ashigara’ service area, near ‘Gotemba’ we have left about 100 km to the ‘Tokyo’ station for a change, I took a lot of photos and videos of the buses that were parked that seems very fun to me these breaks help me to see many beautiful buses see models, meet new companies oh, if I would be so happy traveling every year to ‘Japan’ haha there are so many interesting transports, so many trips to take, to enjoy oh, if I had an incredible time, I would return, I was very happy, I would return from curious things, smokers should be restricted to that area in ‘Japan’ you cannot smoke on the street you can only do so in designated closed areas it is about not trespassing and disrespecting this service area has many commercial premises, it is very large and I went to a ‘Lawson’ store which is a chain of combines these convenience stores that are everywhere I bought four sandwiches, and two boxed orange juices for 870 yen, about 5 dollars ‘Lawson’ has a wide variety of breads I bought bread with tuna, another with potato salad, another bread with egg , they are delicious, this was my lunch. I spent the entire week making intense long-distance trips combining buses, trains, and planes to try the best of ‘Japan’ transportation. There was no time to waste 16:38 hours, we left from ‘Ashigara’, and if you notice, it is almost dark in ‘Japan’, the sunset arrives super early seeing the sunset or the last daylight lights on the bus, seemed like something nice on these autumn dates, the night arrives at 5 in the afternoon as we get closer to ‘Tokyo’, also, in addition to seeing the night we will see more and more cars. These events also conditioned us in the way of planning the trip with ‘Belén’ with my little sister. We left early and took advantage of everything we could outside. We had lunch at night so as not to waste time. I was having lunch. As at this time, generally and when traveling we avoided rush hours, most of the time we traveled on trains with a lot of space and my bus trips within the city were super expeditious as a tourist, I know that living is a very different experience but as a tourist I enjoyed ‘Japan’ too much and I was nostalgic for many things when watching this video to edit it, seeing those breads that I bought at ‘Lawson’ made me miss the convenience stores, the combinis, those miniature supermarkets that have everything and are everywhere, I ate many of those sandwiches in my days in ‘Japan’ and also, on the sidelines, they saw that arriving in ‘Tokyo’ it rained super hard and we are already in the city of ‘Tokyo’, that tiny bus gives it away, ‘Tokyo’ tells us indirectly , this great metropolis has about 37 million inhabitants, considering the large metropolitan area and if you add the tourists, the floating population, which is another lot of people, ‘Tokyo’ is a lot people, hahaha, it’s a lot of people to see the night in ‘Tokyo’ has its magic and ‘Shinjuku’ is the busiest station in the world with about 3 million passengers a day place of skyscrapers, buildings, shopping centers , railways, bus terminal, etc. Driver: thanks for traveling soon we will arrive at ‘BUSTA’ ‘Shinjuku’ and ‘Shinjuku’ station ‘Lumine’ is a fashion and clothing shopping center, a subsidiary of ‘JR Este’ we see a walkway, and there is the ‘Odakyu’ railway station with light blue colors and the green illuminated signs are the ‘Shinjuku’ station of ‘JR’, ‘Japan Railways’ there are 3 railways, the other is ‘Keio’ which has a bus in front of us, that bus is ‘Keio’ it is common for railways to have micro-urban intercity bus services, shops, hotels, buildings, everything, everything, everything, hahahaha everything, everything, everything (ambient sound) we are entering ‘BUSTA Shinjuku’, the largest bus terminal in ‘Tokyo’ and in all of ‘Japan’ below us are the train tracks, the 1st floor and this building houses the bus terminal, along with a huge shopping center it is a labyrinth because the train stations, the shopping centers in the entire area, the terminal and other areas are connected with corridors, the exits are a huge issue, the buses that leave from ‘Tokyo’ They occupy the top floor of this terminal that is outside, in the open air on the ‘Dream Relier’ bus. I showed it and we who arrived from another city to ‘Tokyo’ occupied the third floor area. This floor we are on will show us the arrival platform so that people can start getting off . The bus was almost empty. Most of the passengers got off at ‘BUSTA Shinjuku’. ‘Cradle’ that basically reclines the entire seat, not just the back, giving the sensation of a cradle . Did you see how the seat moved? If not, see it again, hahaha (ambient sound) how incredible it is to be here… how nice it is to remember, also, really, I swear, how beautiful, how beautiful ( ambient sound) now we are heading to the last stop, ‘Tokyo’ station, ‘Nihombashi ‘ side. deconcentrated with several nodes or centers many centers the main stations of the ‘Yamanote’ line are those converging points ‘Shinjuku’ among them, but there are many others during the day it would have been better appreciated but we are bordering the ‘Imperial Palace’, with the castle, the moats, the gardens ‘Japan’ still has ‘Emperor’ and that is the residence of the emperor, he lives there the contrast is very marked, because the palace is the center of ‘Tokyo’ the entire city, historically, was designed from the palace outwards the palace itself also involves traditions, history and the ‘Tokyo’ station is close to the palace, but it is a very different, very modern area, with tall buildings, offices, a financial district and another node where the ‘Shinkansen’ subway lines converge, these ‘JR’ intercity buses, a place full of many people . Look, we are just seeing it at the top, a local train is leaving from ‘Tokyo’ towards the northern area and below we see a ‘Shinkansen’ train that is arriving at the ‘Tokyo’ station, towards the right really, for me, it is a wonder, like I’m a fan of public transport, here there are so many wonderful transports to enjoy, the most beautiful thing is that I was able to travel in them, I was very happy in ‘Japan’, hahaha (ambient sound) and here we met on the bridge of the ‘Shinkansen’ tracks. Did you notice the sign? The bridge is 4 meters high , so the Japanese buses are lower, we are finishing the trip on the railway bridges, we were delayed by traffic to get to ‘Tokyo’. I am glad that we were able to see a lot of ‘Osaka’, ‘Tokyo’, the landscapes of the route and this beautiful bus. I hope you really enjoyed something interesting is that at the ‘Tokio’ station this bus terminal on the ‘Nihombashi’ side is only for arrivals, the ‘JR’ buses have an exit on the ‘Yaesu’ side, at the station I had no luggage, but here you see how they deliver the luggage to the passengers of another bus. They take a luggage ticket and although I recorded it on my cell phone, it is better to show the map so we arrive at the ‘Nihombashi’ side and the buses leave from ‘Yaesu’. Again, thank you for the harmony, the good vibes of everyone, and also the bus driver for his kindness , although it sounds repetitive, making this trip was a difficult dream come true , but it was achieved, and we can’t wait to come back and travel again. We traveled on the best double-decker bus in ‘Japan’, the prettiest, the most comfortable, the best. view. A luxury of a day, a luxury this is the entrance to the ‘Tokyo’ station, ‘Nihombashi’ side I walked quickly to the hotel, ‘Tokyo’ still had no rain but you saw that nearby, before reaching ‘Tokyo’, it did rain hard those rain clouds were on their way and it was raining all night I managed to get to the hotel without getting wet, fortunately I invite you to subscribe, because the day after this trip very early in In the morning I went on one of these ‘Shinkansen’ trains towards the north, to ‘Hokkaido’ I traveled in the most luxurious category of a bullet train, ‘Gran Class’ I went to ‘Hakodate’ and then to ‘Sapporo’, in another adventure that is worth seeing, don’t miss it, yes, it will take a while to be published a giant hug, God bless you and thank you very much for tuning in and for believing in my dreams Bye, be very happy good! And may you fulfill your dreams, too, hahaha a great heartfelt wish

Felicidades por tu viaje a Japón
🇯🇵 Increíble país no me canso de decirlo
Felicitaciones Ariel por tu hermoso viaje. estos son las mejores inversiones del ser humano, conocer otras culturas y otros lugares, se siente en tus palabras tu emoción. estos viajes vale cada peso!
Que buen reporte internacional , espero que algun dia puedas hacer y traer al canal el Rio – LIma de transacreana la ruta mas larga del mundo . Saludos
8 HRS de Osaka a Tokio es como equivalente a un Santiago Temuco semidirecto pero con los atrasos como el que has hecho es como un equivalente a un Santiago Valdivia jajajjaja Saludos Ariel!
Felicidades Ariel, otro video espectacular y te deseo una feliz y excelente próxima aventura 😊😊😊
Felicitaciones por este maravilloso viaje , saludos
Videito mas largo, que agradable de ver todo!
Te asesoraste con alguna agencia de viajes? porque quiero hacer el viaje a japon con 3 amogos y mi hija y desde ya quiero mas info xD

Ya queremos que vengas a México a probar el volvo 9800
Un viaje de lujo conociendo una región ( prefectura ) de Japón. Desde la mañana al atardecer en Tokio . Una cultura superior : carreteras , túnel, puentes , bordeando el Océano. Los descansos entre ruta , bus premium , baño , todo excepcional . Es otro mundo .
Vulgarmente… santiago Serena 😂
Gracias por compartir este recorrido! Sin duda es muy interesante ver las diferencias entre nuestro país y Japón! Y la lluvia le dio un toque especial al viaje. Felicitaciones por poder haber cumplido el sueño de viajar a Japón!
La cultura del respeto por los demás, que envidia todo tan limpio y todo funciona, que buena observación sobre la carretera como se construye pensando en lo óptimo, es caro y más aún en un país tan sísmico como Japón, muchos viaductos y túneles, pero cuando se construye con la mentalidad de ellos todo funciona 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Excelente vídeo Ariel; personalmente quiero agregar que Japón tienen el puente colgante más largo del mundo que es el Gran Puente de Akashi Kaikyo y queda en la ciudad de Kobe (al oeste de Osaka, y conecta Kobe con la isla de Awaji y cruza el canal homónimo). Y ya que mencioné a Kobe y sumado al viaje en bus de este vídeo, me hizo recordar a un conductor de buses japonés llamado Yoshio Fukumoto, que cuando ocurrió el terremoto de Kobe de 1995 detuvo el bus justo antes de una zona de la autopista elevada de Hanjin que se desplomó frente a el, hay vídeos en que se muestra al bus con el eje delantero colgando (pero el resto del bus en la autopista); e incluso según cálculos y estimaciones, si el terremoto se hubiera producido unos 15 minutos después, Fukumoto habría tenido la mala suerte de haber conducido hasta una zona de la misma autopista de Hanjin que se desplomó por completo (solo que en vez de quedar reducida a una pila de escombros, los soportes se partieron y la autopista cayó hacia un lado, hay varias fotos de esa sección), cosa que afortunadamente no ocurrió y Fukumoto se siguió desempeñando durante varios años después como conductor. Y en cuanto al bus, por su configuración de asientos (en concreto el segundo piso) me recordó mucho a los buses salón cama de acá, pero tengo que decir que en mi caso sería un poco más incómodo el viaje en uno de los buses que usaste debido a mi estatura (mido 1.80) y me daría de cabezasos a cada rato, saludos y excelente metraje.
Hola Ariel ! Devuelta ! Que envidia sana ! Pero todo esfuerzo tiene su merecido y lo bueno es que si caes, lo mejor es volver a subir ! Abrazo gigante amigo a la distancia, envidio también tu positivismo a la vida y tus palabras que me ayudan a seguir adelante apesar de todas las adversidades, abrazo gigante gigante
