Step off the train and back in time at Kami-Arita Station, a charming wooden station that serves as the perfect gateway to Japan's porcelain capital. From here, you're just a short stroll away from the historic heart of the old town, where you can wander through narrow alleys lined with traditional buildings and walls made from old kiln bricks. The station itself, built in the Meiji era, sets a wonderfully nostalgic tone for a day spent exploring the rich ceramic heritage of Arita.
