Hahaha I'm budgeting about Rm300 per yukata (so that's Rm600) reasonable ke?

Saw some blogs stating that Uniqlo's Yukata costs about 4990yen!

That's not too bad. about Rm200 is cool.

Do you think its a best time to visit osaka in september? Is the weather hotter than Malaysia? or should i just wait till december?

Im planning to travel there alone on a budget trip. still cant decide whether i should book a hotel or stay with host from couchsurfing site.

I can't remember seeing yukata on sales at Ginza Uniglo wor

regentcid say will be sold in summer time only.

can't be trusted. rates do change. diff. 10-15USD for my trip to bali (found out last few days before departure..cheaper rate). fcuk.

if change also not much....also around RM10-30 different only. Agoda hotel...ppl booked around 6 month earlier....can get very cheap rate

You can try Oriental Bazaar in Harajuku and Nakamise Shopping Street in Asakusa.

Hi

I am traveling solo for the first time to and staying in Osaka from Oct. 15th - 22th.

This is my first solo trip and I am pretty excited (!) but would appreciate a little guidance.

I liked Osaka's food and night life offerings as well as being the midpoint between Nara, Kobe, and Kyoto.
I plan on spending a day at each place.

Question(s) 1:
I would like to know if it is necessary to stay in different hotel if I were to commute to Osaka -> Kyoto -> Kobe


Question 2:

As I said before, I am in Osaka mainly but also visiting Kyoto, Kobe, and Nara so do you suggest a JR pass?
It might make life easier if JR pass consists of one way stops since directions are one of my "need improvement" areas but if there is a large discrepancy between a JR pass and just buying tickets as I go then I can do that.


Question 3:

As this is a budget trip, do you think its possible to go to Tokyo and then Osaka via shinkansen/bus and then KIX?
Thanks!

Me too... Didn't see it few weeks back.

shinkansen cost a bomb wor bus i find is around 8000yen+- roundtrip.. u might wanna try Jetstar Japan(KIX-Narita),sometime their fare is even cheaper than taking bus..save u lots of time too.

Because it still not yet summer season....... August onward will start selling

Hi guys, got question. I need some help navigating around japan, and i'd like to get a mobile broadband / mifi so I can use my ipad (which doesn't have 3g unfortunately).

Any idea how I can get internet connection on the go?

Just stay in any hotel providing WIFI can dy since ur ipad no 3G.

Yeah I think that's what I'll do. I googled a few providers and they are charging like 5k yen for 1 week's rental. @___@

Japan starting going step into Summer already.

Today temperature on noon are 30C.....now 22C.

Summer is coming...Japan gov starting operated back Fukushima nuclear plant
