WARNING Don't Visit Japan's Snow Corridor Without Knowing This!
🗻 Journey to Japan's most incredible winter spectacle - the towering Snow Walls of Tateyama-Kurobe! Rising up to 20 meters (65 feet) high, these massive snow corridors along the Tateyama-Kurobe Alpine Route make Game of Thrones' Wall look modest.
The 65 feet high Snow Walls Corridor in Tateyama Japan is part of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route in Toyama, Japan, the so called roof of Japan.
