From Tokyo, take the Shinkansen and Kurobe Gorge Railway to a secluded hot spring. The train, reminiscent of Switzerland's Bernina Express, offers spectacular views.
You can see the spectacular scenery in 6 hours from Tokyo.

We stayed at "Oyado Nono", a recommended inn in Toyama, and enjoyed hot spring and sauna.
