We take the limited sleeper train WEST EXPRESS GINGA from Kyoto to Shingu, Wakayama. The train only runs two round trips a week. It's special train because it has lots of free space. Let me take you a virtual train ride.
And we go on Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Trails. It is a World Heritage site and has been in use for over 1000 years. It is the only pilgrimage route besides the Camino de Santiago to be designated a World Heritage site.

Hello, your video is excellent. Is the route between Ktoyo and Izumo open? I went through the website and saw only Kyoto-Shingu.

[@off-to-japan]

Hi! No, WEST EXPRESS GINGA doesn't run the route between Kyoto and Izumo now. It runs between Kyoto and Shingu until March 2024. It maybe will run the route between Kyoto and Izumo after that.
