What should I pay attention to when traveling to Japan for the first time?

1, book an air ticket hotel and apply for a visa!

How about these? If you have no time, you can find a travel agency. If you have time, you can make a reservation yourself. After all, it is more cost-effective to book it yourself.

As for me, I booked my own plane ticket, because it is relatively cheap for China Eastern Airlines to go from Shanghai, but it is a self-help tour for the first time to go abroad. In the case of not knowing Japanese, I found a travel customization website and customized a very detailed free travel route according to my needs, which ensured my unimpeded travel in Japan. Entrust them to help me book a hotel online at Lotte Hotel in Japan. If you don't know Japanese, you can book it on BOOKING and AGODA, but it's a little more expensive than Lotte Japan.

2. Travel preparation:

Check the local weather and get ready for travel. It is recommended not to bring too much luggage. It is recommended to bring some clothes, which can be mixed and mixed, because Japanese clothes are very fashionable and will be bought when they arrive. In order to avoid the inconvenience of moving because of too much luggage (the first time I stepped out of the country, I came prepared and didn't do it in drugstores and duty-free shops. This is a small mistake, and everyone takes it as a warning. If you have a SLR, bring an international power converter. If you only bring a normal mobile phone and IPAD, you don't need this equipment.

3, mobile Internet access:

China Mobile's international roaming is sometimes unreliable, and there is no signal from Apple's mobile phone to Japan.

4, emergency preparedness:

Prepare the telephone number of the emergency contact person and the contact information of the destination embassy in Japan: 03-3403-3380, Consulate General of China in Fukuoka 8 10-0065, 1-3-3, telephone: 092-752-0085, fax: 092-78/kloc.

Prepare two travel itinerary, maps, shopping lists, emergency contacts, bank cards, credit cards with UnionPay or VISA, and passport numbers, just take one when you go out, and put important documents in the hotel safe.

In addition to the above four points, there are three other points to pay attention to in Japanese tourism!

5. Fund preparation:

Exchange yen (because the yen exchange rate was relatively low at that time, 100 yen = about 5.95 yuan, so don't exchange too much. I changed 40,000 yen in cash, and the rest was paid by UnionPay card. The handling fee for paying UnionPay cards in Japan is lower than that for VISA). It doesn't matter if there is not enough cash. Be sure to bring your credit card and savings card. Because of Japan's 7? 1 1 There are many convenience stores, including 7? Bank 1 1, with a domestic bank savings card, you can withdraw Japanese yen from ATM, but there is a handling fee, which varies from bank to bank. But if you bring Huaxia Bank credit card, you can withdraw cash for free every day.

6. Shopping preparation:

It is best to make a shopping list before going out to avoid blind shopping, wallet damage and leg injury.

Electrical Appliances: Generally speaking, large electrical appliances stores in Japan can use UnionPay cards, and enjoy a 15% discount for shopping, and a 15% discount for travel/business passports. Other shopping centers and luxury stores generally have duty-free services.

Airport Duty Free Shop: Discount coupons should be printed. Please show them before shopping. The price of duty-free shops in Fukuoka Airport is still very firm.

7. Language exchange

Don't worry too much about this problem. 70% of human communication can be understood through body language. You can speak a little English if you don't know Japanese, but the English penetration rate in Japan is not particularly high. But don't worry, all the instructions in Japan are very good. When you go to the restaurant to order food, the pictures and prices are clear. When you go shopping in the mall, all the goods are clearly marked. Don't worry about being cheated or anything.

Or simply find eight little pigs and travel with local talents. Don't worry about anything
