The Seikan Tunnel is a 53.85 km dual gauge railway tunnel in Japan, with a 23.3 km long portion under the seabed. The track level is about 100 metres below the seabed and 240 m below sea level. It extends beneath the Tsugaru Strait—connecting Aomori Prefecture on the main Japanese island of Honshu with the northern island of Hokkaido—as part of the standard gauge Hokkaido Shinkansen and the narrow gauge Kaikyo Line portion of the Hokkaido Railway Company (JR Hokkaido)'s Tsugaru-Kaikyō Line.
The Seikan Tunnel is the world's longest undersea tunnel, although the Channel tunnel has a longer undersea section. It is also the second deepest and the second longest main-line railway tunnel after the Gotthard Base Tunnel in Switzerland opened in 2016.
Exciting to get on the newly operated Hokkaido shinkansen from Hokkaido to Aomori. It goes all the way to Tokyo.
