nth, just normal dinner. nothing fancy.

In that case, for me tabelog is the best bet. You can filter the price by max price = ¥2000, then do a map search at Gion area (like my screenshot in previous post). At this price range, anything 3.00 and above should be quite satisfying, 3.50 and above should be really good.

I had 1 question regarding the Sagano Romantic Train.
I stay near Omiya Station.
so I plan to walk to Nijo Station and take JR Train to Kameoka Torokko Station, and take the Sagano Train, travel to Torokko Arashiyama Station, then from there go Bamboo Forest, Tenryuji Temple and Lunch at Taishou Hanana Restaurant.

is this arrangement correct ar?
what I confuse is, I paid 240Yen to travel to Kameoka Torokko Station, and take the train back to Arashiyama.. seems like wasting money huh @.@

Nijo Station to Umahori Station, align there and walk 10mins to Kameoka Torokko Station and take the Romantic Train to Torokko Arashiyama Station. Doesn't sound wasting money for me since you are boarding the Sagano Romantic train to see the scenery along the way to Arashiyama.

Looking for a suggestion for dinner place around Gion/Pontocho/riverside in kyoto that is nice and not too expensive. Maybe RM80 to RM120 for 2 pax

1. Google either Hakone or Kawaguchiko. Look up these 2 places where you can see Mt. Fuji. Do more research and you'll find out the cost. Come back and feel free to check with forumers here if you still need help after that.

2. It depends on your itinerary and how many places you will cover in a week. If you're at 1-2 areas for most of the day and rarely do side trips, then your transport cost will not be high. Plan your itinerary and you can look up the ticket cost of each trip in Google Map or Hyperdia site/ app.

Thanks . Appreciate your suggestions deeply.. probably will just stay at Tokyo for this trip .
Is it Shinjuku and shibuya the most happening and lively place to stay and shopping ?

Kansai International Airport obviously, because without landing there how would you go to either place?

Current exchange rate 1JPY=0.036MYR seems to be good compare to previous 1JPY=0.039MYR, or can be more better? biggrin.gif

We're not FOREX experts, no one can foresee the trend. If it's good, just change some and keep. When one gets too greedy, they will end up losing money, unless extremely lucky.
