Traffic 1. You can buy a bus ticket for one day in Kyoto, Kyoto

Bus stops are complicated, and the same stop may have multiple exits. You need to see if the bus you are waiting for is on this platform. If the Google query shows the market 202B, you don't have to worry about the B word, just dial 202.

2. In fact, the most important thing to wear kimono to take pictures is that there are few people (and people look good). Recommend Kenneji and Shawn Temple (we didn't go to this place, but there is a raiders recommendation). Kenneji needs to buy a ticket to enter the room, and there is a beautiful courtyard opposite. Wearing kimono is really tiring. . I thought I could walk a lot in a day, but it was not very good. I suggest taking photos in a few sparsely populated places and going to scenic spots with physical strength.

3. Japan's JR, Hankyu, Kyosaka and Kintetsu lines are more complicated. The actual experience is that you don't need to remember this, just follow google, and JR line will be more expensive. Also go to Nara.

Usually you will choose the subway line. It should be noted that the subway line needs to buy an urgent ticket on the automatic machine (everyone has a fixed seat). The fee for the express ticket is the express fee, and the ordinary fee will be deducted when the ICOCA card leaves the station. The cost performance is not high. The advantage is that one seat is guaranteed. If you are not particularly tired, it is not recommended to sit. other

For example, going to Kyoto, such as the Beijing-Osaka line, is not much different. Just choose the most convenient one according to Google.
