When the time was almost up, I walked to the train station. Although I bought a ticket for the whole journey, I didn’t have to go to the starting station to get on the train. Like I did, I could get on the train at the second stop, Arashiyama Station.

Buy a dumpling to eat. The surface is slightly browned and crispy, but the inside is still soft and glutinous. It is delicious with salty and sweet sauce!

I saw the previous train arriving in the opposite direction.

It's our time to enter the station, so we can line up in advance according to the carriage number.

The little train is coming!

Open-air carriage No. 5 has no windows and a transparent roof, which is the most convenient for viewing the maple leaves.

Because the seat was not by the window, the whole photoshoot was a failure. I only took a video, but it was too big to upload, so I cut it into small animations. But maybe my expectations were a little too high, and it didn’t feel that amazing.

Transparent roof.

The Hozu Gorge below is beautiful!

I got off the car and came out to take pictures of it. In fact, it would look better if I took pictures outside rather than sitting inside, but there was no transportation at all along the way and I couldn't find a good location to take pictures.

The train ends at Kameoka Station, just in time for sunset, and the golden color reflected on the glass is beautiful.

Baked sweet potato, this Chinese translation "more delicious to be tomorrow" what ghost hahahahahahaha, many translators in Japan are directly printed with a translator too funny.

Sunset Mania started shooting the sunset for a long time, and it was completely in the field.

There was a helicopter.

Walk to JR Magaku Station and take JR back to Saga Station.


Finally, let’s talk about buying tickets for the Arashiyama train.

Because this little train is so popular, I originally planned to queue up to buy tickets for carriage No. 5 before the ticket office opened. However, I was so tired that I died a few days ago, so I decided to just go with the flow on this day.

I arrived at Arashiyama slowly after ten o'clock. When I got off the JR Sagano Line at [Saga Arashiyama Station], I could see the station of the most famous Arashiyama train. Of course you still have to queue like crazy to buy tickets!

Inside the museum, if you buy a ticket for a short period of time, you can rest and have something to eat while waiting for the bus.

Finally the queue went indoors.

There is a screen showing the remaining tickets. It is indeed the most popular train, and it is almost gone! I have already considered it and plan to just buy a standing seat.

It’s finally almost here, and there are still some standing seats left, so it’s a long shot!

There is a piece of paper at the ticket window with all the trains written on it. Just tell him which train and how many people you want. I originally thought it was a standing ticket, so I asked if I could go to Car 5 and stand. I never expected that. , he looked and found that there were still tickets for carriage No. 5! It’s so amazing, hahahaha, that I came so late and could still buy a seat in the transparent carriage! It's so funny that you can buy it like this. Fortunately, I didn't get up early to queue up in advance. It's a pity that it's not the AD seat or the window, but I feel super lucky!
