The white route : Tateyama Kurobe Alpine

🕰️Opening hours: You should come to exchange the cable car ticket as early as possible. It is recommended not to be later than 7:00. After exchanging, wait for the train to depart. 🗓️Travel planning: 1. Prepare good clothes. It is quite cold up there. 🤧 2. Go to book the cable car time at the station. You can book from around 05:30. It is recommended to book early because if there are a lot of people, it will be very difficult. (I personally went at 7 am and got the cable car time at 13:10. It wasted a lot of time. And they only let you go to the snow wall. Didn't make it to the dam in time)🥹 3. You should check the schedule carefully. Because if there are a lot of people, you will not be able to come back down in time. During Songkran and after Songkran, there are a lot of people. Some people think that they can continue on. If they go through to the other side, they can. But if you go back the same way, there is a high chance of missing the train. Be careful. 🚨 4. The ticket given to you is for the entire trip. Do not lose it. 🎟️ 5. Once you go up, you do not need to book the return trip or any other vehicles. You can travel freely. But be careful about the connections in each trip. It would be great to go 20-30 minutes before the scheduled time. 6. For solo travelers or small groups, there will be an Individual lane. Go to that lane as soon as possible. For those who really want to go alone, look carefully and keep an eye on them. Sometimes they will call for one person, so we will go first. Or if we are in the first queue, we can ask them. Speak Japanese, Sumimasen, Only one person please. I tried it and got it twice. 😆 Japanese people are very kind if we negotiate well and are polite. Bow a lot. You will pass every checkpoint. 🙇♂️ (This is not cutting in line because I am traveling alone. It is filling up the empty space, such as when there is only one seat left on the bus or the cable car still has enough weight.) 7. There are food and things to buy up there, but you can bring your own. I personally did not eat anything because I was in a hurry to travel. When I arrived at the train station, while waiting for the cable car, I could go for a walk and take pictures of the river. The view is beautiful. #TravelJapan #tateyamakurobealpineroute #japanalps #toyama
