SAGANO SIGHT-SEEING TRAM

To get out from heat and humidity, I rode on the SAGANO SIGHT-SEEING TRAM on the other day.

The train brings you from Saga station to Kameoka station taking about 23 minutes. (JR train takes only 10 minutes so most people use JR for return.)

The tram makes a few minutes stop for passengers to enjoy the breathtaking scene of Hozu river gorge, which formerly was the 'main street' for sending timber down from the mountains.


The fifth car named " The Rich" is a windowless aiming a satisfaction of nature scene of Sagano.


Needless to say, the spectacle at spring and autumn is silent beauty.

In summer, it's good for refreshing and cooling.

A gigantic chandelier in 19th Century Hall (SL & Piano Museum) in Saga station. You would see some famous composers too....
