Picturesque locations that take one’s breath away always contribute to the flurry of stunning videos available on the internet. One such video taken from inside a train in Japan has left netizens awe-struck and will blow your mind too.
The clip, originally posted in November 2021, was shared by Twitter user Taras Grescoe. The video features a beautiful scenario taken along the ‘Maple Tunnel’, located in Kibune between Ichihara and Ninose on the Kurama Line in Kyoto. It starts with the train running along the line as the driver switches off the lights just before it enters the tunnel. Within a few seconds, the breathtaking colours of maple trees can be seen. With the train’s interior darkened, the scenery is too beautiful to be explained in words.
“To allow riders to better view autumn leaves, the driver of this Eizan Electric Railway train on the Kurama Line switches off the lights so passengers can better view this "Maple Tunnel" outside #Kyoto. Another reason to love #Japan's rail culture,” read the caption.
Take a look:
