Takamatsu Station Before the First Train (Late Night Japan) with sub
04:31 In front of Takamatsu Station. Experience the atmosphere of Takamatsu in the early morning. Fog. Takamatsu Symbol Tower. It’s fantastic. Takamatsu Port↑. This station is located at the port. Its You can take the train to Takamatsu Station and then take a ferry from Takamatsu Port to Honshu or the islands. For now, let’s start from the station again. I wonder daily passenger capacity is 11,637 (as of 2024). It’s the busiest station on JR Shikoku. It’s a major station in Shikoku and the main station for Takamatsu, the prefectural capital of Kagawa Prefecture. It’s scheduled to open in March 2024. (Editing late.) if the first train has left? 05:17, probably the first train to Matsuyama. Let’s take a look. 05:17 to Matsuyama. 04:35 to Okayama. It’s surprisingly early. The Marine Liner bound for Okayama is already leaving. It ‘s probably timed to coincide with the first Shinkansen train. It’s about an hour to Okayama. It might even be earlier than Hakata. Truly the gateway station to Shikoku. The “green ticket machine.” Operating hours: 4:10-23:55. The electronic display feels modern. Limited express trains run on various routes. JR Shikoku doesn’t have a Shinkansen, but it has a wide selection of limited express trains. For high-speed intercity travel, limited express trains are the main route. Takamatsu buses are also convenient. This is the regular ticket counter. Transportation IC cards are accepted, but only in certain areas of Kagawa Prefecture. JR Shikoku is unavailable in most places. This is the Setouchi Ohashi Line, which leads to Okayama. Stations from all over Shikoku are lined up. I’d love to take a train ride around the area… There are a lot of “Awa” stations. This is the last day of my Shikoku trip. I saw the whirlpools. (Sound wasn’t captured.) Over here, let’s take a look at the commercial facility. Ekiben shop. Conger eel rice is a local dish from Hiroshima. There’s a lot on the second floor, but it’s closed at this time. Back for now. Maybe a tart? There are a lot of free pamphlets around here. Like the job magazine Alpa. I like looking at local free papers. By the way, it’s currently streaming. Over here is the tourist information center. Let’s take another look here. I wonder what they have. Archive is open. Pet supply vending machine. Rare. Lotteria, the hamburger chain. There’s also a convenience store kiosk in the station, which has become rare. This is a bakery → They’re found all over Japan. There There are also coin lockers. It’s a weekday, so it’s empty today. Large lockers cost 1000 yen. They can fit a large suitcase. are plenty of other lockers. I’ve taken the express bus from Takamatsu to Matsuyama (Ehime), Tokushima, and other places. I’ve never been directly to Kochi. When traveling around Shikoku, I take the express bus as if I were going to a neighboring prefecture. Kochi and Takamatsu aren’t neighboring prefectures, after all. I like the silence late at night. This is the express bus terminal. I wonder if the bus terminal is open? I’ll go and check it out. It was open. Entering. The atmosphere is nice late at night. Mostly to Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara. It takes just under two and a half hours to get to Matsuyama. Surprisingly expensive, it’s 4,400 yen one way. Beautiful. I’m sure this ticket counter is open during the day. It was Takamatsu Station late at night. What’s the downtown area like late at night? I started streaming around here, 03:48 Kotoden Kawaramachi Station. just before going to Takamatsu Station . It’s located just south of Tamamo Park Marugamemachi Ichibangai. Midnight silence. Hyogomachi Shopping Arcade. The longest arcade in Japan. A 32-meter-high glass dome. Takamatsu Mitsukoshi, opened in 1931. , near Takamatsu Castle . Long-established department stores have long been located in areas that were once the commercial centers and thriving areas of the area , You can tell this is Takamatsu’s traditional center. From Okayama to Takamatsu. The previous arcade shopping street coincides with Takamatsu’s main north-south street during the Edo period, but Chuo-dori is the heart of modern Takamatsu transportation. the arcade↑ returns to the beginning of the video. Takamatsu Orne, which we saw at the beginning. And as dawn breaks… Takamatsu’s arcade street in the early morning. I like the minimalist cityscape at night. These apartments look new. Takamatsu is also a compact city. so many people live close enough to the city center to bike or walk to .
