| About Travel |
| General Qs |
| I want to know if I will pass through a lot of tunnels when I travel by train. |
Yes.
Even though Japan is a small country, the most of its land consists of mountainous regions.
Therefore, you will pass through many tunnels especially when you travel by the Shinkansen or train.
The following regions apparently have many tunnels:
- between ShinOsaka - Hakata(Sanyo Shinkansen Line), between Fukushima - Yonezawa(Yamagata Shinkansen Line), between Akita - Morioka(Akita Shinkansen Line), between Utsunomiya - Hachinohe(Tohoku Shinkansen Line), between Takasaki - Nagano(Nagano Shinkansen Line), between Takasaki - Nagaoka(Joetsu Shinkansen Line) |

| Local Qs |
| Which is better place to stay Hakone-yumoto or Motohakone for Hakone sightseeing on the following day? |
| I would suggest to stay in Motohakone.
Because Motohakone is close to Lake Ashi, one of the main spots in
Hakone. So if I go sightseeing the following day, I would start Hakone and
then take a ship from Motohakone to Shiojiri.(you can stop by Mt.Komagata ropeway on the way if you
have time) From Shiojiri, I will take Hakone Ropeway to stop by Owakudani and to last stop, Gora. then take train to odawara via Hakone yumoto.
