Roadside stations or “michi-no-eki” as they are known in Japanese, are the most wonderful roadside service stations that can be found all over Japan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Every roadside station is unique in its design and provides free parking, clean toilets and information about the local area. Most roadside stations also have an amazing collection of local souvenirs and fresh produce and a restaurant or cafe serving local specialities. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Since every roadside station is different, each one provides different facilities. Some are very simple and provide the basics such as toilets and a vending machine but we have also seen roadside stations with onsens, museums, campgrounds, kid\u2019s play areas & art galleries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

With over 1000 roadside stations located on the side of national highways and on the outskirts of big towns all over Japan, they provide the perfect rest area for people who need to take a break while travelling.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
