Such daily life is more enviable than those charming girls. Another thing that must be mentioned is the Japanese toilets, which are as clean as those in Europe, but much more modern. When Washlet becomes a standard feature, it is probably only in Japan, and when the toilets in shopping malls automatically open the lids when they sense human body through voice control.

When flushing becomes dependent on induction, it is very touching that this is actually a public facility. What's more, there are some outrageous details, such as a small wash basin above some toilets, and a button with a music symbol in the bathroom, which will make water flow or music when pressed to cover up the indecent sounds.

Takamatsu is an important city in Shikoku, but compared with big cities like Tokyo and Osaka, it is still a "countryside". Taking the airport bus from the airport to the central transfer station, the roadside is mostly green fields and exquisite cottages scattered among them. Occasionally, you can see the "Miyawaki Bookstore" branch that Yunluo longs for. Walking on the country roads in Japan.

The carp flying beside the small house reminded Yunluo of the animated films of Hayao Miyazaki that he had watched before, full of fresh pastoral atmosphere, and a feeling of re-enacting the scene. Like the treasure island, there is a get-off bell on each seat of the Japanese bus. This is to skip some stations where no one gets on or off when there are few passengers.

This not only saves each other's time, but also effectively avoids missing the stop. The car passed by the Takamatsu Toyoko Inn where Yunluo and An Chuyu were originally going to stay. Their hearts tightened again. Fortunately, Ctrip helped Yunluo and An Chuyu refund the full room payment, otherwise it would be an additional loss. This also proves that the Japanese rules are reasonable in service.

What standard should be used to measure whether the rules are good enough? Yunluo personally believes that it should be based on the premise that it makes sense so that people can not only be convinced, but also feel the warmth and tenderness in the rules. Yunluo and An Chuyu passed by the Ritsurin Park that they missed this time and found that the cherry blossoms here had almost fallen, so they didn't feel as regretful as before.

However, I still hope to have the opportunity to visit this quiet and relaxing park again in the future. Hyogo-cho is a famous shopping street in Takamatsu, but it is not particularly lively. From many signs and advertisements, it can be seen that Takamatsu is just a transit point between Shikoku and Honshu. If you really want to travel around Shikoku, you must visit famous cities such as Matsuyama, Ehime, and Kochi.

Takamatsu Transfer Station is not big. But it gathers the national railway (i.e. JR), various private railways and buses. It was already afternoon when Yunluo and Anchu met. In order to see the words "Welcome to the hometown of udon" that they saw at the airport, they looked for udon restaurants in the station with their friends, but they either didn't have any or were under renovation. Fortunately, there was a small and eye-catching restaurant in the square in front of the station.

The long-awaited udon noodles, the store has set up a luggage storage area for passengers who are about to take the bus, so. The considerate and wonderful Japanese service began from then on. As soon as I got off the airport bus, I saw this big smiling face, and I was very happy. Yunluo and An Chuyu bathed in the bright spring sunshine of Shikoku, Japan, and shouted "kawaii".

There was a lot of excitement in the square in front of the station. As it is a transit center, a business district has naturally formed around the square in front of the station to serve the passengers. It seems to be more lively here than the special shopping streets in the city. As a transit station, Takamatsu Station is well equipped, including independent telephone booths that will not break down and detailed maps from far to near.

You will never get lost on your journey. Sightseeing trains are very popular in Japan. Although the country is not large, their unique romantic sentiment has created many unique attractions. If you have time, you can take their various themed trains to play slowly and learn how to carefully discover the beauty of each exquisite attraction along the way.

I have always admired Japanese advertising design. There are a lot of elements on the screen, but they don't look messy when put together. Instead, the bright color contrast makes people patiently look at them one by one. Because it was a bit boring waiting in the hall, Yunluo was holding up a large SLR to take a selfie. A lovely Japanese aunt almost fell down in order to see the picture clearly.

After standing firm, Yunluo and An Chuyu smiled at each other. She seemed embarrassed and bowed and left. In fact, no matter where you go, communication with locals can start with a smile, which is the world language that everyone knows. There are almost all lockers in Japanese stations, but they are very small. The ones that can fit large boxes are usually occupied early.

So I saw that many Japanese people travel with very small suitcases. In order to fit them into these lockers, they also worked hard. The stores in the station shopping street were all under renovation. Yunluo and An Chuyu searched for a long time before finding this udon specialty store. There was a special place in the store for passengers to place their luggage, which was very considerate.

It is worthy of being the hometown of udon noodles. The texture of the noodles and the soup are both excellent. In fact, there are many flavors of udon noodles for sale, and they can be freely combined. Yunluo and An Chuyu's Japanese level is very limited. After a little guessing, they still hit the luck and ate really delicious udon noodles. As soon as Yunluo left the noodle shop, he continued his habit of buying udon noodles every time he saw a vending machine.

Have a can of Coca-Cola's yuzu drink, which is limited to Shikoku. Shikoku once produced a famous person - Sakamoto Ryoma. Whether in his hometown of Kochi or other places in Shikoku, there are attractions and objects related to him everywhere, even the manhole covers are very distinctive. There are many Shikoku specialties at the station, looking at the dazzling shelves.

I felt like I had traveled to various places even though I couldn't get there. The packaging was so cute. If you live in Japan for a long time, you will definitely be overwhelmed by it. I didn't expect that there are knockoffs in Japan. At first glance, I thought it was Hokkaido's White Lover with a different packaging. It turns out that this is actually the "Udon" lover produced in Kagawa, Shikoku.

There weren't many people on the bus, but they basically took their seats according to their assigned numbers. The bus was not only on time, but Yunluo even found an outlet on the bus by accident! You can never see it on domestic buses, which relieved Yunluo's urgent need. The phone can be charged and the portable WIFI can continue to work. It takes a full hour to get to Kobe.

This meant that Yunluo and An Chuyu had to spend an entire afternoon and could only watch the sunset over the Seto Inland Sea from the car. Fortunately, the beautiful scenery did not disappoint Yunluo and An Chuyu. They followed the reminders on Google Maps and discovered the beautiful scenery that would appear along the way. Miyawaki Bookstore was like a warehouse, and we saw many branches of this brand along the way.

It seems that the influence in the local area is indeed not small. This is a large steel ball shop, which is the "pachinko" that I often saw in Japanese comics before. It is popular all over Japan. It is said that many people have lost their fortunes to play this. It can also feel the Japanese people's persistence and obsession with the game. Seeing Huaguo, I couldn't help but get excited.

Although I knew it was not our "Huaguo", I was still surprised to see Chinese characters for Huaguo Bus, Huaguo Bank, etc. This time I took the Japanese express bus. There was a detail that touched Yunluo, that is, there were many stops along the way, and the bus would stop for a while at each stop regardless of whether there were passengers with reservations or not.

It seems that they are still waiting for the guests to get on the bus. Follow the rules, as long as you come on time, you will not miss it. Although this seems simple, it is indeed rare to see it in China. There are not many mountains in Japan. The clouds, distant mountains, fields and small houses in the picture are very similar to the scenes in Hayao Miyazaki's movies. Because the city has been transformed too much nowadays.

The neat and exquisite houses in the cartoons when I was a child can only be seen in the countryside now. I fell in love with the Seto Inland Sea from the first sight. Shikoku in spring is full of poetry, with mountains, sea, and clusters of beautiful cherry blossoms. Perhaps because it is a good port, the Seto Inland Sea seems very calm.

The coastal towns are also built very close to the sea. It was afternoon and the sun was particularly bright. In addition to the vast open sea, there are many large and small coastal lakes in the Seto Inland Sea. When there is no wind, it is as calm as a mirror. In fact, what surprised Yunluo the most was not that the town was particularly close to the sea, but that the green fields were directly spread out on the seashore.

The pragmatic Japanese will not let go of any land that can be used. Finally, I saw these flat fields up close, full of vegetables. You should know that these domestically produced vegetables are very expensive in Japan, so many people are reluctant to buy them. On the contrary, health products containing vegetable nutrients are hot-selling all over the country. The sea in the mid- and high-latitude areas.

The colors are deeper and purer. Yunluo and Anchu met on the express bus. Didn't they feel that there was almost no language barrier? In Japan, if you understand the place names, you will have no problem finding the way. They are thoughtful and will make detailed marks in places that are easy to find. This is one of the marks. I have only seen "Bears beware. Deer beware."

It was the first time I saw a cat, so I took this photo as a souvenir. Thanks to Nissin, Yunluo and Anchu met at a rest stop in the wilderness and could taste their delicious instant noodles at full price. It was vending machine + hot water supply. Although there was no one, the service was still very thoughtful. It is worthy of being one of Japan's three major contributions to the world.

I remember someone once asked, since the Japanese have separated the trash cans so clearly, do people really put out the trash according to the categories? Yunluo thinks these transparent collection bags will tell you the answer. Really, they all throw out the trash according to the categories, which is actually just a piece of cake. I envy the people who live here, as they can almost see the sea without any obstruction.

Every day, you can immerse yourself in the invincible beauty. People who live by the sea and the port should be familiar with this scene. The long sea can dock many ships. We are almost in Kobe, and the sun is gradually setting. Walking along the coastline of the Seto Inland Sea, Yunluo and An Chuyu took a photo of a gorgeous sunset on the sea. Udon noodles in Shikoku.

The sunset over the Seto Inland Sea, the long coastline, and the charming scenery are all so beautiful. Yunluo and Anchu met across the sea, and they had a lot of misunderstandings with each other, but because of a smile, they quickly resolved the awkwardness. Some differences seem like a chasm, but as long as they understand each other, they can be easily crossed, while some minor differences are due to unwillingness to communicate.

The distance is getting farther and farther. Looking back at Kobe in Kansai Kobe Sannomiya is a very important transit station in the Kansai region. It is the first stop after crossing the Seto Inland Sea. Kobe is a seaport city.

The beef exported from here is famous. After the experience of Takamatsu Udon, beef is also indispensable when visiting Kobe. I like the feeling of being able to see detailed route instructions when leaving the station. It is really useful for people who are directionally challenged. However, due to time constraints, Yunluo and An Chuyu had no time to leave Sangong and could only walk around the surrounding area.

There are various coupons. Although the discounts are not much, Yunluo has become accustomed to searching for suitable merchants through coupons. It is still unclear which store sells beef, so I can only walk around and look for it. The colorful luggage storage, self-service + coin-operated, is the most common service facility in Japan. You can guess how much labor these technological products have replaced.

It also exacerbated Japan's high unemployment rate. Similar to China, the prices of food and beverages at the station are relatively high, but later Yunluo slowly discovered that the prices in Japan are indeed much higher than in the past two years. Today's Japanese cuisine is actually a complex cuisine that absorbs the essence of Chinese cuisine and Western cuisine, and can develop its own characteristics.

And this combination of new and old is so harmonious, it's amazing. There are many restaurants in Sannomiya, and Yunluo and An Chuyu considered the budget and the appearance, and finally chose a restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows. You can enjoy the night view of Kobe from all angles. The waiter's accent is special, which reminds Yunluo of the interesting Kansai accent.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Maybe because it is a port city, their English is very good, and they don't even have a chance to show off their poor Japanese. I don't know whether to be happy or sad about this. Maybe in a few years they will even be able to speak Chinese. I have to praise their enthusiastic service. Yunluo and An Chuyu went to a Western restaurant. Because it is a restaurant in the station.

There are special areas for guests to place their carry-on luggage. Yunluo and An Chuyu sat in the window seats, watching the traffic and the flashing neon lights. The night view of Kobe Sannomiya was served as a side dish. Like Europeans and Americans, Japanese people like to drink ice water, which many Chinese people who have a special liking for hot water cannot accept.

I remember that I made a fool of myself when I first came to Japan because I missed the hotel's ice machine. The amazing seafood risotto, the portion is actually quite small, but the taste is OK. Sometimes I really don't understand the obsession of Japanese and Taiwanese people with cheese. Hello, Kobe beef. The texture and chewiness are good. Since I'm poor and can't afford expensive ones, I just eat the local beef for the sake of my own goodness.

After a delicious beef feast, Yunluo and An Chuyu officially started their private railway journey in Japan. They headed to the next stop, Nara Shin-Omiya, which was already late. When buying the ticket, I suddenly felt like I was in Taiwan, because Japan and Taiwan are so similar, even the troublesome way of buying tickets by section instead of by station is the same.

Since I didn't buy a pass, I had to face the nightmare of buying a ticket whenever I went out. I had to think about it for a long time before I dared to buy it. The Japanese way of thinking was indeed very different from Yunluo and An Chuyu. The dense transfers between sections made Yunluo confused. I personally think that the purchase method in China is more simple and clear, and the Japanese system is too complicated.

Looking at this ticket, you wouldn't know where Yunluo and Anchu were going... This is the characteristic of Japanese railways. Almost all of them are local trains, with one every few minutes. It's very convenient, but the one-way price is really not cheap. Maybe because Yunluo and Anchu met a little late, there were not as many people in Kobe Sannomiya Station as expected, and the same is true for the shopping street.

The platform is covered with various signs. The electric railway is indeed not like a train, but more like a subway or light rail that can connect to the Kansai area. On the roads in Japan, you can often see beautiful girls and handsome guys dressed in a very stylish way. When Yunluo saw the route map in simplified Chinese, he was very excited, thinking that he could finally understand the Kintetsu route clearly and get on the road easily.

Yunluo was really naive. After opening it, there were only more complicated section and transfer signs... It was still hard to understand... I have to admire the Japanese, they are really very thoughtful. Just like the train that Yunluo and An first met. The seats in the Kintetsu carriage can be rotated, when you don't want to sit face to face with people.

You can change your direction and continue to be a quiet beautiful man/woman. No matter what you choose, it is your personal freedom. Unlike in China, when passing through certain stations, all carriages are required to turn their seats collectively. When passing through Osaka along the way, I saw various imitations of White Lover in the convenience store at the station, which shows that its popularity in Japan is really extraordinary.

There are so many imitations, which proves that the Japanese really love this kind of chocolate biscuits (sweet enough!), and also shows that the Japanese have reached a bottleneck in innovation in this area, and they can't even develop special local products that surpass Shiroi Koibito. Nara Kintetsu Shin-Omiya Station is not as well decorated as Kobe Sannomiya, and is a bit old, because there are no particularly famous attractions nearby.

There were not many tourists coming and going, and most of the people getting off the bus were local residents. As soon as we exited the station, we saw the candidate and his campaign team waving warmly to Yunluo and An Chuyu. As it was election season, they were really working hard, working tirelessly to provide warmth to the passengers in the middle of the night, just to get that sacred vote. We stayed at the local Toyoko Inn.

Since the hotel no longer had double rooms, Yunluo and An Chuyu each booked a single room. Each person had more space, and it had everything you could think of. Most importantly, there was only one copy of each room, for one person. In fact, Yunluo was surprised by the Japanese's thoughtfulness from the beginning. They provided accommodation for one person in order to facilitate one person's travel.

Some of their double rooms offer a price for a single person, while the single rooms are all set up for one person. These details are full of their respect for individual choices. The thoughtfulness of their service has exceeded Yunluo and An Chuyu's imagination. A comfortable bed that is neither too big nor too small, suitable for one person. The room is small, but it has everything.

Not only does it have everything that a budget hotel should have, but it also has all the facilities that are only available in domestic four-star hotels. Most importantly, they are all single-person portions...(~^~)
