Nowadays, more and more people will travel abroad during holidays. Among them, Japan, a neighboring country, is the destination for many Chinese people to travel abroad. Japanese animation adds a hint of illusory color to it, but after checking in to Japan, you will find that this is indeed a place worth visiting again and again. So what do you need to prepare for if you want to travel to Japan? Today, the editor will give you a full list of Japanese travel guides full of practical information~
visa
mA universal Taobao can solve everything. If you don’t plan to travel multiple times, you can apply for a three-month single visa. This year, Japan has relaxed its visa policy for my country. If you have a credit card or graduate from a designated university within three years, you can exempt 100,000 yuan in turnover certificates. You can consult Taobao sellers for the specific list, and they will provide you with the list based on the actual situation. The following picture is the information I consulted for sending a regular package in Guangzhou. It is for reference only:
Air ticket
If you determine the travel schedule, the earlier you book the air ticket, the cheaper it is. Generally, you can prepare two to three months in advance. Pay more attention to the special air ticket prices. It is the most cost-effective to buy 3 months in advance. If you travel poorly, you can choose a low-cost airline, but one disadvantage is that your luggage will be restricted. If you plan to buy in Japan, you must pay attention to the luggage limit when buying air tickets, otherwise it will not be cost-effective to increase the cost. In addition, if you are worried that you can’t pass the visa, you can buy a visa-refunding insurance, which costs about 100 yuan. If you can’t pass the visa later, you can pay the full amount of the air ticket.
Accommodation
Japanese hotels are famously small and expensive. Like air tickets, the earlier you book, the more cost-effective it is. If you have a high cost performance, it is recommended to book a B&B on Airbnb. The price will be cheaper than a hotel, but you need to communicate with the landlord in advance and you may also need to bring some daily necessities. You can book a hotel on Booking, the price is a little more expensive than a B&B, but the service will be better and more convenient. Moreover, the particularly personal thing about Booking is that you can get a full refund within the specified time before checking in. There is also an Agoda for hotel reservations, which is similar to Booking, but sometimes the prices of the same hotel are much different, so you can compare the price when booking.
Phone card/WIFI
When you are away, you are not familiar with the place, how can you do without the Internet! There are various 4G package phone cards on Taobao, including 2 to 5 months, depending on your travel time. It is more convenient to use a phone card, one card per person, and you can use it by inserting the card. There are also WiFi available for rent on Taobao. Sesame Credit is free of charge if you have a Sesame Credit of 666, but it will be a bit heavy to carry WiFi with you. And if a few people travel together, they have to ensure that they stay together all the time. In addition, they have to ensure that they have sufficient battery life. In comparison, the phone card is more portable.
Transportation
Transportation card is a must-have, including watermelon card (green), ICOCA (blue), and Kitaca, which can be purchased on Taobao. All three cards can be used for most transportation and some convenience stores shopping. The most commonly used one is the watermelon card. See the figure below for the specific differences:
In addition, transportation in Japan is also very expensive. If you use a transportation card, you charge by section of the road. Sometimes a subway station costs more than 200 yen, which is more than 10 yuan. There is a Tokyo Metro daily coupon on Taobao. It is about 100 yuan for 3 days. It is still very cost-effective to sit around without limiting the number of times.
Payment
WeChat and Alipay in Japan are not as common as in China, and many small stores can only use cash. It is recommended to exchange yen in China before departure. It is not that cost-effective to exchange in Japan. If you swipe your card, only support Visa credit card.
practical app recommended
Google map: a software that must be installed! If you don’t get lost in a strange city, just rely on it. The shuttle bus in Japan is very timely. It will be displayed on Google map that travel is very convenient.
transfer within the case: There are detailed route guidelines, what platform to start, what platform to arrive, how many stops to take, and there are also tips not to transfer. It is a very practical app.
Japanese translator: English is not good among the Japanese people. Everyone should download a Japanese translator. It would be embarrassing if you don’t communicate clearly at that time.
Minimalist exchange rate: Check the real-time exchange rate anytime, anywhere, it is very important to buy and buy! Don’t be cheated and don’t know if you don’t know~
Mafengwo, Ctrip, etc.: Travel guides are essential. You can check any places around you when you arrive in Japan.
Travel routes recommended
html If you have a holiday around 7th, please visit Kansai, route: Kyoto → Nara → Osaka. The travel time is not long, so it is not recommended to play together in Kanto and Kansai. On the one hand, the time is tight, and on the other hand, transportation in Japan is really expensive! We have to take the Shinkansen from Kanto to Kansai, which is similar to our high-speed rail. It costs more than 1,000 yuan per trip. I instantly feel that the price of high-speed rail in our country is very conscientious!Must-visit check-in place (recommended by route order)
Inari Shrine
Kyoto must-visit attractions! The most famous here is the dense vermilion "Shenben Torii" behind the main hall of the shrine, which is one of the most representative landscapes in Kyoto and has also appeared in the movie "Memoirs of Geisha". Hundreds of vermilion torii form a passage to the top of Inari Mountain. The fox is regarded as the messenger of the god Inari. Therefore, in the shrine you will see various fox stone statues, fox-shaped painted horses (prayer cards), and fox-shaped guards (amulets), which are very cute.
Kiyomizu Temple
Kyoto’s oldest temple, the Hanami stage hanging in front of the hall is a national treasure-level cultural relic of Japan. In spring, the cherry blossoms are blooming. It is one of the famous cherry blossom viewing places in Kyoto. In autumn, the red maple is cool and it is also a tourist attraction. The three sources of Yinyu Waterfall under the Qingshui stage represent health, study and marriage. Many people line up here to pick up water and drink and pray for blessings. Tickets are required here for 400 yen, and half price for primary and secondary school students.

Yasaka Shrine
Yasaka Shrine is one of the most famous shrines in Kyoto. There are places where you can ask for signatures, write and write horses and ask for oshima. The horse patterns are very diverse. Heart-shaped horses that pray for love are very popular. I heard it is quite effective~ If you go in July, you can also see the lively Gion Festival. You can taste all kinds of snacks in the shrine, and there are many eye-catching festival decorations.
Nara Park
Of course, you have to see the super cute little deer when you go to Nara ~ If you have deer cakes on your hands, the little deer will come to eat, and they are all cute. In addition, there are about 1,700 different varieties of cherry blossom trees in the park. The urban park at the foot of Wakaku Mountain, Todaji Temple and Kasuga Daisha and other famous sites in Nara are all here, which is a must-visit place when visiting Nara.
Universal Studios

You will definitely not waste a day of playing here. There are one-day weekly and two-day weekly tickets to buy on Taobao, which will be cheaper.

The 5th floor also offers the "God of Fortune", which can bless people to pass the exam and obtain a good marriage. It is said that touching its soles will bring good luck.
Shinsaibashi
Fighting place! It would be a loss if you don’t buy medicine cosmetics in Japan. As the largest shopping area in Osaka, you can buy everything you want here, but there are really many people~ Basically every medicine cosmetics store here has Chinese shopping guides (after all, Chinese people have amazing purchasing power). If you have designated products, you can just take the pictures to find the shopping guide without having to search for it for a long time by yourself. It should be noted that shopping in Japan requires an 8% tax fee. Some stores will provide tax refund services. You can consult when purchasing.
Dounjue
Dounjue is a representative location of Osaka cuisine. It is near Shinsaibashi. After shopping, I am very satisfied! The big crab signature is the symbol of the Dowtonju Food Street. Many famous snacks such as Golden Dragon Ramen, Takoyaki, Rotary Sushi, Puffer Fish, etc. can be eaten here. As a foodie, the editor’s key summary: There is no need to eat crab Daole, it has high prices and average taste, and low cost performance; Yilan Ramen has five-star praise, especially soft-boiled eggs, you will be praised after eating it!
This Japanese travel guide will refine some practical information for everyone to avoid traps. As for the specific route planning, you have to read more information and arrange it according to your own situation~ Although it is cool to walk, the guide is still very important. After all, when traveling abroad, you will often encounter unexpected situations. Friends should plan early and then enjoy the journey happily ~
