Kurobe Dam in October 🍁

#TravelTalk

Talking about the spectacular and beautiful natural attractions in Japan during the changing leaves, where has everyone been?

For me, one place that's just as beautiful as anywhere else is Kurobe Dam in Toyama Prefecture. We went during the fall foliage season in October, and it was breathtakingly beautiful. 🍁 The view of the dam and the surrounding atmosphere is truly stunning, as it's nestled amidst the Japan Alps. Surrounded by nature, the entire route is truly heavenly. For those who enjoy strolling, admiring the scenery, and breathing in the cool air, this is heaven.

The journey is also fun, as Kurobe Dam is part of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, also known as the "Roof of Japan." 🚞🚌 You'll travel up and down the mountain via trams, buses, and cable cars, and finally, you'll even walk on the dam itself. The easiest way is to start from Tateyama Station and then take the tram, cable car, and bus all the way to the dam. The journey takes about 2–3 hours, with numerous stops along the way. Take your time, enjoy the views, and finally reach the dam. It's incredibly worthwhile.
