Japan didn’t just raise the bar for public transport… it completely ruined every other train system for me. Forever. We rode the Shinkansen Tokyo → Kanazawa → Kyoto → Tokyo. I expected punctuality. What I got was something that feels almost unreal: • The train stops centimeter-perfect at the exact same spot every single time • White-gloved cleaning teams turn the entire car spotless in under 7 minutes • Zero chaos. Pure order. Quiet respect in every movement This isn’t just high-speed engineering. This is Japanese culture running on rails. Biggest realization? It’s not about the technology. It’s about a deep, almost sensual respect for time, for space, and for other people. Once you’ve felt that level of precision and care… everything else just feels a little broken. Have you ever taken the Shinkansen? Which route would you kill to experience first? Drop your questions below — I’m happy to share all the little details that still give me chills. #Shinkansen #JapanTravel #TokyoKanazawa #Kyoto

🇨🇳 Many people don't know this but Chinese high speed trains are now the fastest in the word and officially faster than even the 🇯🇵 Japanese Shinkansen Chinese trains go 350-400km/h (217-250mph) depending on the model While the Japanese Shinkansen goes 320km/h (200mph) max So I went to try it from Chengdu to Chongqing (just $80 for biz class) This one is the slightly older 350km/h model The business class cabin has 5 big seats that can lay flat with a stewardess dedicated to the cabin who serves you drinks like coffee, water, orange juice etc. I guess if it's a longer trip you probably get food served too The journey was very smooth and very fast, it maintained close to 350km/h at all times and there wasn't many stops or breaks (good) It didn't have WiFi, which is kind of a miss but it seems Chinese just use 5G for everything which worked fine for me without interrruption too I'd say the interior could be a bit more beautiful and modern. I usually say things in Japan look ancient but I think the Shinkansen interior there looks a bit more modern than here The trip took 1 hour and it passed about 300km in that time, roughly equivalent to the width of my country the Netherlands 😂 Anyway solid experience (and cheap!) 👍

Richard Blumenthal (net worth: $159,000,000) casually paints himself as an “economy class” traveler to attack Trump’s new Air Force One as too “big and luxurious.” “He could have gotten by with the old one.” “It just wasn’t as big and luxurious as he would want.” “And most of us who travel in economy class put up with a good deal more discomfort.”
