"The No. 5 carriage I bought specially, because there is no window glass, it is opener, and there is no need to worry about glass reflection when taking pictures. I asked the staff when I changed the ticket, and I needed to log in to the mailbox to download the QR code. In fact, the progress is not checked. Japan is a country with a spirit of contract. They believe that since you have to cross the gate, you will have a ticket. Because the red leaves were not red when I went, the scenery must be a little worse."
