Wakayama-Kishi Station Kodama Train

#7月好去地方2025 📍Wakayama・Kishi Station & Tama Train🐱 When you come to Wakayama, you must not miss the hometown of this super popular "cat stationmaster". Kishi Station is famous for Tama Stationmaster (たま駅長), and it is not only a railway fan, but also a cat lover or a healing scenery lover. Take the "Tama Train" running on the Kishi River Line, and each carriage is full of cat elements: from curtains, seats, pendants to ceilings, you can find Tama's cute traces. There are also picture book corners and wooden decorations on the train, as if entering a fairy tale world. The station itself is shaped like a cat ear hat, and there are Tama-related products in the sales department! Although Tama Stationmaster has passed away, the second-generation cat stationmaster "Tama II" and other cat employees have taken over, but the warm, calm, and somewhat dreamy atmosphere still exists. This trip didn't feel like a quick tour, but rather like slowly making friends with a cat - peaceful, healing, and something that makes you want to come back again.
