Osaka is one of the most popular cities in Japan for good reason, but it can get a little wild and congested in the big city...how about diversifying your trip with a couple nights in nature-filled Kochi?
The journey is about 4 hours with only one transfer at Okayama Station, and the best part is…you get to travel across the Seto Ohashi bridge, with mesmerizing views of Japan’s Inland Sea
In fact, we just took this exact route after holding an event at Tosa Shimizu World restaurant in Osaka where you can savor Kochi’s delicious sake and cuisine!
The ultra-speedy bullet train from Shin-Osaka to Okayama was only 45 minutes, and the remaining time on the Nanpu limited express train to Kochi flew by in a moment’s notice as the views of ocean, sky and mountain made for an unforgettable, almost therapeutic ride
The 13-km Seto Ohashi is actually the longest double-decker bridge in the world, which perhaps makes crossing it in itself worth the journey!
