An essential item on a train trip: a packed lunch!
There are over 2,000 varieties of ekiben, which means ‘train station lunch box.’
At Tokyo Station, the hub of rail travel, we meet an ekiben expert who has eaten 9,000 ekiben from all over Japan over the past 25 years to find out how to find a delicious bento box.
Hiroshima’s famous conger eel rice box!
The combination of mild and sweet grilled eel and moist rice is exquisite.
Most Japanese consider freshwater eel to be the best, but it is said that the people of Hiroshima especially value and enjoy eating conger eel…
Hear the interesting story behind the sweet taste.
Hiroshima, one of Japan’s top ten cities.
Hiroshima, which was reduced to ashes by the atomic bomb during World War II and then rebuilt as a city of peace, has preserved the Atomic Bomb Dome, which shows the horrors of war, and registered it as a World Cultural Heritage site.
Visit the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and see the Flame of Peace, the Peace Bell, and the Cenotaph for Korean Atomic Bomb Victims, which embody the spirit of anti-nuclear and anti-war movements.
Miyajima Island (Itsukushima Island) is considered one of the three most scenic spots in Japan.
This place, registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is famous for Itsukushima Shrine, which is built on the sea.
It is said that the entire island was considered a place where gods lived, so a shrine was built on the sea instead of on the land…
We will shed light on the meaning contained in the shrine on the sea and the giant torii gate that stands 16 meters tall.
Let’s visit a lunchbox factory that makes the Kansai region’s famous octopus pot rice lunchbox!
Opened in 1903, this place has been continuously producing new lunch boxes for 120 years.
We take a closer look at the process of making octopus pot rice lunch boxes, which are made based on thorough hygiene management.
Mori is a small and quiet town in southern Hokkaido.
This is the birthplace of the squid sundae lunch box, which has been loved by many people for over 80 years.
The ingredients are simple and plain, made of squid, rice, and broth, but they are moist and soft, and boast a special flavor…
Let’s listen to the story behind the creation of the squid sundae lunch box, told by third-generation owner Maya.
The city is a hieroglyph that testifies to human history, and a living space where the past, present, and future coexist. Gods and humans, life and death, history and culture breathe in the city. The show ‘Walk into the World’ looks at various cities around the world from a traveler’s perspective and captures their history, culture, and life. Episode 850 ‘Train Lunch Box Travel II, from Hiroshima to Hakodate’ will air on KBS 1TV at 9:40 AM.
