Tateyama Peak Experience

In this edition of Journeys in Japan, musician JJ enjoys the beautiful snowy scenery of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, one of the foremost mountain resorts in Japan. His first stop is Tateyama Station at the foot of the mountain. From there he takes the cable car, ropeway and buses to reach near one of the peaks of the 3,000 meters mountain range. The 18-meters-high snow corridor near the peak is the highlight of this tour, and it is an overwhelming sight of towering snow. There is also a hotel near the peak - the highest altitude hotel in Japan - and after enjoying a sumptuous meal, he goes for a walk to see the sun set over the snowy mountain. He gasps at the sight of the mountainside changing shades from orange to pink, red and purple. The following morning, he joins an exclusive sunrise tour for the hotel guests, and is struck by the beauty of the sun showing its face from beyond the peaks of the mountains. He also visits Toyama Port to enjoy the fresh bounty of the sea.
