Visiting Bessho in the Japanese Alps

Welcome to readers from Myanmar and Namibia Bessho, Ueda. The Asama shinkansen from Ueno station Tokyo took a supremely comfortable hour to roll into Ueda City. From there a small, six carriage, narrow gauge train called the Dentetsu took me on the thirty minute ride to the village of Bessho. I was there to feel the contrast with Tokyo’s greater metropolitan district populated by 44 million people and to visit the best example of a wooden temple in Japan. Even though Bessho had a population of 2361 people only a handful people were visible at any one time. It was quiet.

Many travellers mention the tiny towns towards the end of the archipelago. Personally though I found the archipelago midsection utterly jawdropping. In fact I went back to it. Twice. Happy Travels everyone!
