Hello there,
Mar 21 (Sat) is a public holiday in Japan. How would it affect the tourist attractions in Tokyo pls? i.e. will some of them be closed earlier, or closed for the day?
We aren't able to book any hotels in Kyoto and have therefore booked a hotel in Osaka as the base for Kyoto/Osaka/Nara/Kobe. Is there a more recommended itinerary for this setting pls?
How would you describe the general safety in Japan (esp. on JR trains)? Anything we should pay special attention to?
We can bring our big luggage to the JR trains - right?
Should we make reservations in advance, if possible, for the tourist attractions in order to avoid long line-ups?
Many thanks.
