Hokuriku-regio

De Hokuriku-regio, genesteld in het kloppend hart van Japan, tussen de zee en het gebergte, stroomt over van cultuur en historische schatten.

Bezoek Kanazawa, het centrum van hedendaagse kunst en traditionele producten en ambachtswerken. De stad is ook gekend om de beroemde tuin Kenroku-En, een van de drie mooiste tuinen van Japan.

Verken de Japanse Alpen met de bus (Nohi, Hokuetsu vanuit Takayama en Kanazawa; Kaetsuno vanuit Shin-Takaoka), langs het goed in stand gehouden dorp Shirakawa-go met zijn traditionele rieten daken, geklasseerd als UNESCO-Werelderfgoed.

Laat u verleiden door Takayama, een bergstadje met tal van traditionele huisjes en ambachtelijke winkeltjes. Met deze pass kunt u ook reizen naar Kyoto, Osaka, Kansai Luchthaven en Nagoya maar niet op de Tokaido Shinkansen tussen Nagoya, Kyoto en Shin-Osaka.

Pass-houders hebben recht op vier reserveringen elk op gelimiteerde sneltreinen (behalve gereserveerde zitplaatsen op de "Hakura Airport Express"), en onbeperkt reizen op gewone treinen, niet-gereserveerde wagons op gelimiteerde sneltreinen, niet-gereserveerde zitplaatsen in de gewone wagons van de Hokuriku Shinkansen.
