If you find the shinkansen too expensive, you may want to consider overnight bus such as Willer Express. Around 4,000 yen one way. Can also save on one night accommodation  biggrin.gif

yes, i plan to buy JR pass. so that i cant worry about transport expense. i can use from kansai airport to tennojin. and use from osaka to tokyo and return to osaka. in tokyo can use that JR line.

i have travel by bus/train during nite before. very tired and cant sleep well. somemore cant watch the view. furthermore want to experience ride the shinkansen. expensive but i think it is worth to use.

tomorrow will go apply visa. smile.gif

i miss japan. when i was in haruka train from kyoto to kansai airport, it stop at tennoji, 1st place i stay at japan. it reminds me of my first day in japan. and the way train workers who clean that train, waves said goodbye to me, it give sentimental value. they are so nice to tourist.

definitely will go to japan next time.


Added on April 3, 2012, 11:49 amand tq regentcid cos suggest to use JRpass.

i use it in osaka, tokyo and kyoto. i only spend day bus pass in kyoto and some of subway in tokyo.
