Friends who are going to Japan, have you calculated the cost carefully? There is also the issue of visa information. If you want to go to Japan, you must prepare a visa, and there is one more thing to pay attention to. It is important to be fully prepared even for treatment. What is there to do in Japan

This should be one of the questions that everyone is more concerned about. Japan is a long and narrow pirate country adjacent to us. Enjoy the maritime monsoon climate. This leads to different scenery in different places throughout the year in Japan. You can see cherry blossoms in spring, summer festivals and firework displays in summer, maple leaves in autumn, and enjoy the sunshine of Okinawa and the beautiful snow scenery of Hokkaido in winter.

If you are an anime and game lover, this is almost a paradise. If you are a digital product enthusiast, you can always find what you are looking for here. If you like Japanese food, then this is the place. This is the most authentic Japanese food.

At the same time, there are many Japanese cultural relics and well-preserved customs and culture here. If you understand some Japanese culture, you can have a deeper understanding of the profoundness of our ancient culture. How to go to Japan

There are currently two formal ways to go to Japan, one is a cruise ship and the other is a direct flight. It depends on personal preference, but if it is a cruise, many of them are combined with trips to Japan and South Korea. And on a cruise ship, you spend most of your time at sea. Although our two countries are quite close, the cruise still takes a long time. And a cruise basically only stops in one city for one day. My friend chose a cruise for her wedding trip. They said it also had a different flavor. Not to mention the plane. Cost issue

This issue should also be the most concerned issue among friends who have never been to Japan. (If you are least concerned about this problem, please ignore it)

If you are joining a group, basically the biggest expenses have been solved, and the rest depends on what you buy. This is mainly for friends who travel independently.

Air tickets: Air tickets from Beijing to Tokyo are relatively more expensive. Taking Beijing and Tokyo as an example, the round-trip air tickets basically cost about 6,000RMB after tax. It will be cheaper if you book further in advance. At the cheapest time, you can book a flight for around 3,000 RMB.

Accommodation: Compared with air tickets, accommodation should be another very large expense. For example, the basic cost of an average hotel in Tokyo is about 10,000J-15,000PY per room. Without booking in advance, the accommodation standard is similar to our chain hotels, but the environment is much better, much cleaner, and of course much smaller. Therefore, it is relatively cheaper if a few people come together, because many hotels have standard rooms (twin beds) similar to those in China, and there are also many three-bed and four-bed rooms. If there are several children together, the room price will be divided equally. There will be a lot of money left. Of course, if you have money, you can also stay in hotels like Hilton and ANA Intercontinental. If you have no money or just want to sleep for two or three hours, you can also choose a capsule hotel. A hotel unique to Japan. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. Basically it stays around 3000JPY early.

Accommodation must be booked in advance. It will save you a lot of money, because last year I couldn’t decide on a time to go there, so I had no choice but to book a relatively cheap hotel. I stayed at the Hotel Nikko in Osaka for 20,000 JPY a night. That hurts. And the room was so small that it was a mess.

Eating: This all depends on your own spending power. Because I am very interested in Japan and ramen, ramen is a must-eat in Japan. The price of ramen basically remains between 600-1200JPY. Of course there are more expensive ones. The most expensive ramen in Tokyo can be bought for 30,000JPY per bowl, and you need to make a reservation in advance. The other ones are pork cutlet rice and tempura set meals. The price is basically the same as ramen.

It’s impossible to go to Japan without eating sushi. For sushi, you can try Japanese conveyor belt sushi, the price is absolutely fair and reasonable. If you don’t want to eat conveyor belt sushi, get up early in the morning and go to Tsukiji Market, where you can get the freshest sushi and the freshest sashimi. And the price is also relatively fair and reasonable. If you want to eat the best sushi, you can go to the sushi gods introduced below to taste the best sushi in the world.

Crab, Kani Dōraku, Japan’s famous crab restaurant, where you can eat a variety of crab dishes. Including roasting, making soup, cooking, eating raw, hot pot, etc. It’s about 6,000JPY per person. It is recommended to have a set meal.

Barbecue, this is one of the two places where many salarymen in Japan often go to wait after get off work. It’s great to eat barbecue and drink beer while waiting, and many places are marked with barbecue, which is similar to Waiting for us to help ourselves. You can eat as much as you want, and it only costs around 100JPY per skewer. Of course, if you go to eat Kobe beef and you are full, you may lose your monthly salary.

Drinks, you can see vending machines everywhere in Japan, and the drinks inside are reasonably priced. Basically coffee is 100JPY and other drinks are around 120-150JPY.

Transportation: Basically don’t take a taxi in Japan, because it can easily make you bankrupt.

For example, it basically costs 20,000JPY to go from Narita Airport to downtown Tokyo. In Tokyo, basically subways, trams, and JR are all covered. If you are in the city, it is basically between 160-400JPY. There won't be too expensive a ticket. If you find it too troublesome to buy tickets, you can directly apply for a one-day card or something, which will save some costs.

Tickets: This is actually one of the earliest issues I was concerned about. For example, in China, in Mount Emei, it costs about 1,000 RMB to visit all the attractions, because in addition to the entrance fee, all attractions have a separate ticket. If you want to go in, I'm sorry, you have to pay. The Chinese people's idea is that if they are here, let's go in and have a look. As a result, if you add up one attraction to another, the tickets alone may cost thousands of yuan. Take cherry blossom viewing in Tokyo as an example. Among the most famous places for cherry blossom viewing in Tokyo, only Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden requires tickets. Guess how much the ticket is, 100 JPY. Believe it or not, it’s the price of a can of coffee. When you arrive in Kyoto, the cost is even higher. Because there are many world heritage sites in many places, and the maintenance of these heritage sites requires money, admission fees will be charged. Some places have special national treasure exhibitions and will charge tickets. Some places have to pay admission to worship, but don't be afraid, the price is basically kept at around 500JPY. To apply for a Japanese visa

First of all, a passport is an official symbol that a person is a citizen of a country, similar to each of us’ ID cards.

A visa is a temporary or long-term proof of being able to travel to other countries with a Chinese passport. Similar to Hong Kong and Macau Pass.

And it is a tax certificate, not a company certificate.

If you want to ask me whether I can go to Japan by myself with an individual group tourist visa, I’m sorry, but I can’t. If it is a group tourist visa, there is no way to enter the country alone. Must be with a group.

There are many questions in the Q&A about whether Japan’s visa is only for 15 days. Is it okay to stay in Japan for a few more days? The answer is very clear, no!

Some people also asked, For a group visa, can I go back a few days later? The answer is very clear, no!
