As you enter the station, you immediately feel as if you enters the 1900s. The train ride was smooth, with a lush, stunning view but also enjoyable for kids. One of the best things was when you would be able to sit with arms and legs hanging out seeing the authentic scenery of the forest. The service on the bus was also very comforting, and having a tour guide with humor and gentle toward children.
