What do I need to prepare for going to Japan? Japan Travel Guide 20 18

Japan is a big tourist country, many people will choose to travel to Japan, and shopping psychology may account for a larger part. Now Bian Xiao wants to talk about the preparations before going to Japan. Only when the preparations are done can there be a good show.

Jack Ma visa

It's all on dad's platform. It will take more than 200 weeks to send it from Chengdu to Chongqing. The first visa to Japan needs to be prepared: a copy of the real estate license/house purchase contract (in the name of the parents, it is enough to open a relationship certificate), a certificate of employment, a bank account for half a year (the deposit is not less than 1w), and a copy of the company's industrial and commercial registration;

JRPASS tells the truth, if you want to move to more than three places, buy JRpass, or you may cry for transportation. If you are only active in the Kansai area, you can only buy JR Kansai area, which is a few hundred dollars and still cheap. If you need to travel in Tokyo-Kansai area, you need to buy a JRpass all over Japan. Of course, this all-Japan ticket can also take you to Hokkaido as long as you have enough time.

I am a round-trip ticket from Chengdu Shuangliu to Tokyo Narita, so the itinerary is divided into "Tokyo-Tokyo periphery-Kansai-Tokyo". There is no five-day option for the JRpass national coupon, so I have to buy a section of JR on Disney Road on the second day and a Jr in Kamakura era on the third day. All stations in Kansai rely on JRpass, just enough to return to Tokyo on the eighth night. Specific JR package selection can be studied in Taobao/Zhu Fei Travel Agency ticketing details page.

Network problems wifi and phone cards are about the same price. As for the advantages and disadvantages, make the following comparison:

WiFi:

Advantages: the signal is stable, the speed is not limited, the network speed of multiple devices can be provided, and it is light and convenient for daily use.

Recommend calling cards, lazy people like me who don't want a backpack. Calling cards are really easy. If I need more equipment, I don't care much about renting WiFi.

Disadvantages: heavy! The power can't last long at all, and you have to bring a charging treasure with you to charge WiFi. If heavy traffic is used suddenly, the speed may be limited and sending photos and videos may be slow.

Calling card:

Advantages: the network speed is completely enough for daily use, light and convenient.

Disadvantages: If you suddenly use large traffic, you may speed up and send photos and videos slowly.

Summarize the difficulty of selection in one sentence:

Recommend calling cards, lazy people like me who don't even want to carry their bags. Calling cards are really easy. If I need more equipment, I don't care much about renting WiFi.

As for which calling card to choose:

I compared it for a long time. Docmo is the largest operator in Japan, but it is said that the network speed of the network card may be slow because of too many users. The main reason is that Taobao's customer service who sells Dharma cards is super arrogant, and always has a speechless attitude of "I can't connect to the signal without buying the cards of other operators of Dharma cards", which makes me turn my head and choose the billion-point network card. The operator is Softbank, which may be equivalent to China's mobile and telecom. The network speed is basically stable, but it is said that sudden use of large traffic will be limited. I don't play games, but one day I received a video for a long time and then sent a message slowly. I sent a message to the customer service, which was quickly solved.

Qian Qian, change money as soon as possible.

I kept dragging until I contacted the neighboring banks in the last two weeks and told me that I had to make an appointment for two weeks before I could apply. Finally, I asked a friend to apply across regions, and it took a week to get it. I am used to mobile payment and credit card in China, and only changed for 2w yen. It turns out that in many places in Japan, only cash can be used, and cash is also the most convenient. However, it is not recommended to exchange too much, and it is convenient to withdraw money. Convenience stores have self-service ATMs, and UnionPay and visa can directly withdraw Japanese yen.

In addition to the 2w I brought, I brought another 2w in Japan. Basically, I can swipe my card if I can. Finally, I spent all the 4w cash, and finally left some silver coins to take home as a souvenir.

Check into the hotel booked by Kyoto on booking, near Sigong. The fact is that living here is really convenient! The tram for Lanshan will stop at four Dagong stations. There are all kinds of trams and buses here. This is a big transit station, close to the business district. Hotels must be booked well in advance, and there are often no rooms. The reserved hotel sometimes does activities, sometimes goes up to have a look, or adds a collection to the favorite hotel. I used to book a hotel for more than 1000 a night, but suddenly one afternoon I got a 4.6 discount.

Hotels in Osaka are extremely expensive. I want to live in a place with convenient transportation and experience Japanese houses by the way, so I booked a hotel a few hundred meters in front of Osaka New Station on airbnb.

Well, book a hotel, airbnb book a B&B, cross-check the price and determine the housing in advance.

The tickets for Phantom and Disney Taobao Flying Pig were searched a lot, and it was too late to buy them a week before the trip. Disney can choose to have a physical ticket, and USJ is an electronic ticket. When buying, tell the store when to go, but the e-ticket (actually an email with a QR code) received is valid for one year. In other words, if you can change your itinerary, check the weather forecast in advance to avoid heavy rain. When I went to USJ, it began to rain at noon, but it was good to go to the park when it rained. Many people have left, and the number of people waiting in line for projects has dropped sharply. All the items were brushed, and Harry Potter brushed them three times, hahahahahaha.

Kimono Kimono can be rented in Taobao or official website in advance, which is suitable for babies who just want to experience taking pictures casually, but can't wear or do hair because of hand disability. Just go to the store and choose a good style, and the clerk will help you dress and do your hair.

I bought a full set of vibrating sleeves online in advance and took them to Japan in a suitcase. Official website, having seen many large Japanese kimono rental shops, always thinks that all kinds of styles are thick sheets and expensive vibrating sleeves, so it is better to buy an improved set with high cost performance. Wear it yourself, that is, learn to wear a belt and learn to tie a bow for a long time. It turns out that a person can't wear it at all, and he needs the help of a small partner. But I'm glad I won't bump money when I walk on the road. The style is completely different. hahaha.

Travel appgooglemaps, multiplication and division, minimum exchange rate, three essentials.

Google

Maps can find routes, including geographical location and traffic. Suitable for use when you don't know which station to take the bus to and which station to get off. But sometimes I feel that the tram schedule is a bit wrong, and GPS is not as powerful as domestic maps. You often cross the intersection, and it takes a long time for the map to react and call you back.

In the case of bus transfer, it is an auxiliary use. How to transfer between stations is clearly written in Japanese. You have to guess. However, the best way to ask for directions is to use it, which is suitable for people who don't know how to say place names in Japanese and whose English is poor. Just show him the app and you'll know where to take the bus. This is the lesson of blood and tears that I summed up after I lost my way in various stations in Tokyo N times.

When you buy something, the minimum exchange rate allows you to reduce your fever and convert it into RMB to measure the cost performance;

Billion point connection is a calling card I bought. You can use this app to make calls and transfer domestic numbers.

TokyoDMap is to check the queuing time of Disney projects, which is useless.

The imagination and efforts to learn Japanese are wonderful, but the reality follows.

There is a translator who just downloaded one out of security, never opened it at all, and communicated in English. Although most Japanese people are really embarrassed by English sorry, basic and simple conversations are ok. Even if they don't understand, they will smile at you with a smile, and then continue to dance and point to draw and communicate.
