Travels in Japan
Many visitors to Japan from abroad often go to Tokyo and Kyoto. Kyoto is about 2 hours away from Tokyo by a bullet train (shinkansen) and was the capital of Japan in the past, with many shrines and temples. Many tourists from oversees visit Kyoto, and everywhere you go it is filled with many people. And now hotels and restaurants seem to be priced higher for tourists. It is the same in Tokyo. Hotels and restaurants are especially expensive if it is popular by the tourists.
Aside from Tokyo and Kyoto, places like Kanazawa, Nara, Kobe, Osaka, Fukuoka, Kitakyushu, Sendai, Sapporo, Nagoya and Takamatsu are also places where you can enjoy Japan. While Tokyo offers a full range of nature, food, entertainment, and all other genres, I think it is fun to choose a destination that suits your purpose.
Many people often use the JR Rail Pass that is made for tourists to travel within Japan, but domestic LLCs are also recommended. SKYMARK, AIRDO, STARFLYER, Solaseed Air, Peach Aviation, Jetstar Japan, Vanilla Air, Spring Japan are some of the LLCs that are available, and I think they are less expensive than JR.
In addition, as for lodging, city hotels have been especially expensive lately, so I recommend business hotels. Most business hotels are located near train stations and are very convenient because they often offer free breakfast and have convenient stores nearby. Also, since they are designed for business travelers, they are equipped with great Wi-Fi.
Recently, I have started to use business hotels instead of city hotels. Generally speaking, business hotels have the disadvantage of small rooms, but I book a double room, using one of the beds for luggage storage. This helps me to stay in a hotel for 1/3 to 1/2 the price of a city hotel. Business hotels are getting busier these days, so I try to make a reservation as soon as I decide to go to Japan. I am also happy to know that many of the Japanese business hotels are free to cancel up to one day in advance.
By changing your destinations slightly, staying at a business hotel, or using an LLC, you can save money without losing out on convenience. Please give it a try.
