Tokyo is a metropolis with a comprehensive public transport system. To explore this city, we do not need the help of tour guides - just a map of public transport such as buses, Densha (Train), and chikatetsu (subway).
Railway network in the city of Tokyo is operated by several service companies, and is one of the largest railway network and the busiest in the world. There are nearly 300 stations scattered in 14 lines, the whole distance of 328 km.
Every day, the network transports eight million passengers with a coverage area that stretches a distance of nearly matching the Jakarta-Bandung.
With Densha and chikatetsu, you can visit famous tourist spots in Tokyo such as Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, Ginza, Asakusa, Shibuya and Harajuku (stop at Meiji-jingumae).
Densha chikaketsu own station and can be attractions. Watch and try various types of beverage and food vending machines that were there. There are also vending machines flowers, and a machine that can guess your age and gender.
So no need to bother to read maps or change lanes and stations confused, you live up the Yamanote Line track - that circles the city of Tokyo and stops at various tourist attractions in this city.
Almost all the ticket vending machines equipped with a guide in English. Train fare varies depending on distance and distinguished between adults and children. Look at the fare to your destination, and enter the banknotes or coins to buy tickets.
If there are technical constraints or language, please ask the clerk - but it requires some proficiency in Japanese.
Alternatively, you can buy tickets for one or two days. This way, you are free to use the services of certain operators in 24 hours without having to buy another ticket for each lane.
With tickets Holiday Pass for 2300 yen (approximately USD 230 thousand), you are even free to use the entire public transportation system in Tokyo for 24 hours on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.
Moving from one lane to another lane (or stations) are relatively easy and convenient. But sometimes the amount of underground tunnels can be confusing. Fortunately, almost every station is equipped with signs lettered Latin text.
If you travel on weekdays, it's good to look at peak hours ie 17:00 to 19:00 07:00 to 9:00 a.m. in the morning and evening.
Do not forget, if you are traveling on business days, consider the rush hour is around 07:00 to 09:00 am and 17:00 to 19:00 pm.
