Japan Good to know

Japan is famous for the Bullet Train, also known as the Japan Railways. It is the fastest and the busiest train in the world. It carries over a hundred million people across Japan every year. Due to these amazing features, the train is one of the main attractions in the country. However, before getting all charged-up with the idea of an adrenaline pumping ride, note that without a transit pass, riding the train can eat up a lot of money. Any traveler without the budget better try the ride some other time.

While getting on a train to places is very comfortable and easy, walking around is not bad either, but trekkers should be cautious. Some destinations like the shorelines in Kamakura have large birds flying around. These birds can be attracted to food or items a tourist may be carrying around. They can go plunging into those stuff and their wide-spread wings can cause a nasty hit on the head. Better learn to duck so an avian accident cannot ruin that planned get away.
