Riding the bullet train (also known as Shinkansen) is easily the most convenient way to travel between cities in Japan.
In Japan – 2015
a travel video by Vincent Urban
Back in 2015, Vincent went on a 3-week bullet train journey (Shinkansen) through Japan's most visited cities: Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, and Hiroshima. This film truly reflects the singularities of this Asian country and sheds some light on what to expect when the train's doors finally shut.
This film is a collection of audiovisual moments and memories of a 3-week railway journey through Japan in 2015. We were whizzing through the country with the Shinkansen visiting Tokyo, Osaka, Hiroshima and Kyoto as well as lots of wonderful little places along the way, meeting the most friendly people and experiencing a culture that somehow balances its rich tradition with a very futuristic present.

Japan in a Nutshell
Sorasak
There is no denying that the different layers – and islands – of Japan are quite literally awe-inspiring. Be it experiencing the cherry-blossom in Okinawa, a hike through the vibrant Okutama natural park, temple-hunting in Kyoto, admiring the symmetric Mount Fuji or joining in on the rush of Tokyo and shopping in eclectic Harajuku – Japan offers something to fulfil everyone’s expectations. And what’s more, the Japanese are known for their humble natures that make travellers feel welcomed and wanting to board on a bullet train to explore all that Japan has to offer.

As you are about to discover, Japan is way more than its crown jewels of Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto. Head to the country's landlocked Nagano prefecture, only to find one of Japan's most scenic rural landscapes: Kiso and Mount Ontake, the second-highest volcano in Japan. Follow the footsteps of Lukasz Larsson Warzecha and Ulrika Larsson and it won't take long before you wish to start packing.

Immortalized on the screen by Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson (Lost in Translation movie), the hotel's New York Bar offers uninterrupted views across Tokyo's scintillating skyline. Apart from the spacious rooms and suites, guests staying at Park Hyatt Tokyo are welcomed to use the ravishing 20-metre pool on the 47th floor.

Insights from Tokyo...
Tokyo would probably be the foreign city if I had to eat one city’s food for the rest of my life, every day. It would have to be Tokyo, and I think the majority of chefs you ask that question would answer the same way.
Anthony Bourdain, American Chef
Our Focus in Japan
Tokyo has long since been the first stop for travellers when visiting Japan and what with it offering a “city that never sleeps” vibe, one can totally understand why it is such a massive draw.
