Explore the ancient temples, countryside and cities of Japan with a Japan Rail Pass. High speed and safety are features of the JR system where 300 km/h Shinkansens (bullet trains) connect Tokyo with Japan's major cities at intervals of approximately 15 minutes. Long distance trains provide convenient access to all parts of Japan.
With 20,000 kilometres of track, Japan Rail is an intricate rail network that covers the 4 main islands - Hokkaido in the north, the main island of Honshu, and Shikoku and Kyushu in the south. Visit popular cities such as Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto and Kobe, or explore the beautiful regional areas where you'll find the attractions of the Gero Hot Springs, Nagoya Castle, Kenroku-en Garden, Mt Fuji and Himeji Castle (also known as 'White Heron Castle").
