Japan is steeped in legend and myth, perhaps the greatest of which
is the popular misconception that the country is simply too
expensive to visit. The truth is that flights to Japan are cheaper
than they've ever been, accommodation can be great value, while the
warm hospitality which awaits every visitor costs nothing at all.
The real secret to travelling around the country on a budget,
however, is the Japan Rail Pass. Use this comprehensive guide in
conjunction with a rail pass to get the most out of a trip to
Japan. * Practical information - planning your trip; when to go;
suggested itineraries; what to take; festivals and events. * City
guides and maps - where to stay, where to eat, what to see in 30
towns and cities; historical and cultural background. *
Kilometre-by-kilometre route guides - covering train journeys from
the coast into the mountains, from temple retreat to sprawling
metropolis and from sulphurous volcano to windswept desert; 33
route maps. * Japan Rail service schedules - Bullet trains and main
routes in this guide. * Customs, etiquette, Japanese words and
phrases - with kanji- With kanji/hiragana/katakana for all place
name text - readers can point to the text when asking Japanese
speakers for directions. * Extended Highlights - extra colour
sections make this book even more user-friendly and attractive.
What's new in this fully-updated 5th edition? * Greater coverage of
Tokyo with additional mapping following post-Olympic interest in
the capital and the country * More hot-spring resorts added

areas off the beaten track including the wood-carving town of
Inami, Yanagawa where you can ride in a 'gondola' along its canals,

Okunoshima island (notorious for its WWII poison gas factory) * New
Style Trailblazer guide with twin-colour layout and restyled maps *
