Frequently asked questions about serviced apartments in Japan
What are the top sights to visit in Japan?
Choosing the top sights is tough, as it depends on your interests! For iconic landmarks, you've got Tokyo's Meiji Jingu Shrine, Sensō-ji Temple in Asakusa, and the Imperial Palace East Garden. Kyoto offers Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine with its thousands of red gates, and Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Mount Fuji is a must-see, and Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park and Museum are deeply moving. Don't forget Hakone's stunning views of Mount Fuji and its volcanic hot springs.
Are there any major international airports in Japan?
Yes, several! Narita International Airport (NRT) and Haneda Airport (HND) both serve Tokyo, while Kansai International Airport (KIX) serves Osaka and its surrounding areas. These are the largest and busiest, offering numerous international connections.
What are the best serviced apartments with a pool in Japan?
What currency do people use in Japan, and are ATMs easily accessible?
The Japanese yen (JPY) is the currency. ATMs are widely available, especially in cities. Seven Bank ATMs are particularly convenient for international cards, though fees may apply depending on your bank.
What are the best serviced apartments with a jacuzzi in Japan?
Driving in Japan can be challenging for visitors due to narrow roads, limited English signage, and the prevalence of automatic toll gates on expressways. Public transport is generally far more efficient and convenient for exploring cities and between regions. However, renting a car can be ideal for exploring rural areas at your own pace, particularly if you plan to visit more remote locations.
What are the best serviced apartments for families and kids in Japan?
Are there any local etiquette rules to follow in Japan?
Yes, several. Bowing is a common greeting. Remove your shoes before entering homes and some restaurants. Public transport requires quiet behaviour and consideration for others. Tipping isn't customary. Chopsticks etiquette is important, and avoid sticking them upright in rice. Learning basic Japanese phrases is always appreciated.
What are the best pet friendly serviced apartments in Japan?
The Sanja Matsuri in Tokyo (May/June) is a vibrant festival with portable shrines. The Gion Matsuri in Kyoto (July) is one of Japan's most famous festivals, featuring elaborate floats. Aomori Nebuta Matsuri (August) is known for its giant illuminated floats. These are just a few examples, and the best festival for you will depend on your travel dates.
What are the best serviced apartments with parking in Japan?
A week allows for a good balance. Consider a combination of Tokyo for modern life and culture, Kyoto for traditional temples and gardens, and perhaps a trip to Hakone for stunning views of Mount Fuji and onsen (hot springs). This itinerary balances city exploration with natural beauty.
Where are the best spots to enjoy a weekend in Japan?
For a weekend, focus on one area. Tokyo offers a huge range of activities, from exploring Shibuya's iconic crossing to visiting museums and shrines. Kyoto is another excellent choice, allowing you to delve into its rich history and culture. Hakone, a mountain resort town, provides a relaxing escape with scenic views and onsen.
What are the critical emergency numbers for medical help or security alerts in Japan?
For medical emergencies, dial 119. For police or other security concerns, dial 110. It's advisable to have these numbers readily available.
