    【en】How to Enjoy the Shinkansen Part1

    Among all the trains in Japan,
    the fastest is the Shinkansen,
    also known as the bullet train.
    But today, we’re not talking about the train itself—
    we’re focusing on something you’ll find on the platform.

    It’s called an “ekiben”.
    Put simply, it’s a bento box—
    but what makes it special is that
    each station sells different kinds,
    often unique to that area.

    Many of these bentos are regional specialties,
    so unless you actually visit that location,
    you won’t be able to try them!
    Also, you might be surprised
    at how quick and efficient the staff are
    when you buy one.

    As soon as you place your order,
    they’ll have your ekiben ready in no time—
    watching their skills in action
    is a cool experience in itself.

    I also share more fun facts and tips about Japan,
    so if you’re curious about anything,
