How to get around?
Use the train. Japan is a country with a best system in the train apai
world. Trains in Japan is very timely. If your mobility is high in Japan (and your visa tourist visa), better consider to buy JR Pass (Japan Railways Pass). JR Pass merupakah very frugal choices, than you buy a unit (one more thing, just buy a JR Pass if you will visit not just one city).

Tips on the train, the first tip if you do not know how to pay your destination, the ticket machine, just choose the lowest ticket price. Later when they arrive at the destination station, go to the fare adjustment machine, and pay the difference in the ticket price. If you do not want (or do not understand how to) use the fare adjustment machine, exit through a manned gate, and asked, how much difference that must be paid. Some stations have only a superscript route with kanji (without romaji), making it difficult for tourists who do not understand Japanese.

Tips Be careful with the second woman only car. In Japan there is a special car for women for certain hours (usually at rush hour). Well, the men are strictly forbidden in this car.

Night Train is a choice you make benar2 who wants to save travel time and your money (if combined with a Seishun 18 kippu). Night trains are usually of two types, rapid and express. Moonlight Nagara train is the most famous night in Japan, because Tokyo routes Ogaki (a small town after and before the Kyoto Nagoya), and commonly used by orang2 who want to go to the Kansai region with a low cost. There was also the Moonlight Kyushu high-Osaka route Hakata (Fukuoka), Moonlight Echigo (Niigata Tokyo).

Seishun 18 (juuhachi) kippu who represents tickets sold only during school holidays children. There are only three periods a year in ticket sales this, when the winter holiday, spring holiday, and summer holiday. They cost 11 500 yen for 5 unconsecutive day (so a day in 2300 yen) for all local and rapid trains throughout Japan Japan Railways. On this ticket there are five boxes unheard-stamped by the clerk. How to use it, we do not get into the platform through the automatic gate, but to a manned gate. Then show the ticket to the guard, then he will stamp the ticket idea and all day we are free to use that ticket to any destination in all of Japan with a local and rapid trains of GS by Japan Railways.

Not recommended for first-timers to Japan using the Seishun 18 kippu, better you use the JR Pass. But if you are currently studying in Japan, and may not buy JR Pass (JR Pass can be purchased only by persons who have any kind of tourist visa, not a college student), Seishun 18 kippu a prime choice for a walk.

One day subway ticket. There are two prices, 700 the yen and 1000 yen for Tokyo. With one day ticket, you can use the subway all day long for several line (700 yen) and all line (1000 yen).

One day the bus tickets will be very useful when you visit Kyoto. Bus ticket prices in Kyoto flat, meaning that cost the same distance near 220 yen. But if you buy a one day bus ticket for 500 yen, you can ride your suka2 bus2. Break even fit three times up.

Night buses are also economical choices. The price is (generally) cheaper than a train ticket prices for the same route.

Taxi in Japan is expensive, do not use if you are not concerned at all.
