What's the best way to travel and stay there? I'd like to stay probably in the Tokyo area but that's not really mandatory.

What are the available alternatives? Like Buses, Trains. I am afraid that the train system might be abit complicated. The bus? I am not sure where to alight & stuffs. So I would gladly appreciate if someone can guide me and give a gauge of the amount I would need to spend. Thank you.

I will be studying in Kyoto from Sept through May, and I want to know the most appropriate clothing to take with me. Kyoto seems pretty conservative, which is okay, but I don't to know what's best to leave. My main concerns are shoes and bottoms (jeans, skirts, and dresses).

Of course we will visit all of the temples and shrines. Is there any other activities that we should try?

I am planning a vacation to Toyko next year, but have no idea on what are the best seasons and the best places to stay. We do not want to stay at the same hotel the whole stay, but instead, would like to travel to different parts of Japan. I would like as much information from someone who either lived there or travels there a lot. We are going to be there for a minimum of 2 weeks, more if necessary.

the Vietnamese embassy in Japan's website seems to be down.
I don't live in Tokyo so I can't just walk up to the embassy. I know a travel agency could do it if I booked with them, but I'm buying my ticket on my own. Help please.

If you come to visit Japan, what would you wanna do and why? (Please answer this Question seriously)

1. Sight-seeing Japanese traditional places or temples (Kyoto, Kamakura...)
2. Sight-seeing Tokyo (Shinjuku, Odaiba, Asakusa)
3. Not only Sight-seeing but also you can try some Japanese things. (Try to wear Kimono, try Bedrock bath, try to do tea celemony.....)

which do you prefer?
Bedrock bath is you lay on hot rockbed. its really good for your health and BEAUTY. Japanese women really love it now.
if you have any good ideas, PLEASE tell me. (Try to..... something)

I'm currently living is Osaka, Japan and going to move back to the states in Sept. I'm planning to go on a vacation before I actually get back to the U.S. I obviously don't want to haul two large suitcases of all my belongings throughout my vacation so what would be the cheapest way to send my suitcases ahead to the states while I go off on my trip?

I live in Tokyo for 3 weeks now. Japanese people working with me or visiting me noticed that my lights are too dimmed (and they are not). Than I looked arround a little closer and saw that every japanese apartment or every office, and all lights around me are always blasing strong. Also, we know that the entire Asia has always very bright street lights and panels...
Why is that?

Can it have anything to do with Japanese/Asian genetic setting? Namely, we know that their ancestors came down from far north, and there the lights (with snow and reflections) are much stronger, so it can be that the eyes evolved towards being slightly less light sensitive.

Can somebody elaborate on this, or recommend an internet source?
