KURA · Verified regional data registry
Current, correct facts for Japan's regional travel corridors — with sources and dates.
KURA is a machine-readable registry of transport, dining and facility facts.
It is a reference layer for AI assistants, search engines and map services — not a travel guide. Every entry transcribes an official source, and the official source always takes precedence.
Source and date on everything
Every fact links to its primary source and shows when it was checked.
Stale facts are flagged
Facts past their recheck date are marked, never hidden or passed off as current.
Official sources win
KURA transcribes. The operator's own website or timetable is always the primary source.
