Transportation Company - Camellia Line - Shipping



Company History: Camellia Line Co., Ltd. is a shipping company that operates a freight passenger ship connecting Hakata Port in Japan and Busan in South Korea. It was founded in a joint venture between Japan NYK (Kinkai Yusen) in Japan and Koryo Shipping in Korea.

One round trip ferry "New Camellia" operates between Hakata and Busan each day. It departs Hakata during day time, and then departs from Busan at night. It is a part of Asian Highway 1(AH1) and the only part of the highway in the form of a ferry. From Fukuoka, AH1 takes the Camellia Line ferry to Busan, South Korea. The Japan–Korea Undersea Tunnel has been proposed to provide a fixed crossing.

From Wikipedia
Brief History:
Japan is an island nation in the Pacific Ocean with dense cities, imperial palaces, mountainous national parks and thousands of shrines and temples. Shinkansen bullet trains connect the main islands of Kyushu (with Okinawa's subtropical beaches), Honshu (home to Tokyo and Hiroshima’s atomic-bomb memorial) and Hokkaido (famous for skiing). Tokyo, the capital, is known for skyscrapers, shopping and pop culture.

Although legend has it that Japan was founded in 660BC, archaeologists agree that settlement in the Japanese archpelago dates back as far as 100,000 years. The Jomon Period (8000-c.300BC) is the earliest that has been studied. It is named after the 'jomon' or cord-marked pattern style of pottery of the period.
