How to pray in shrines and temples

I want to go to Japan this year. I hope to visit some shrines and temples. I know that shrines are for practicing Shinto and temples are for practicing Buddhism. I watched some videos about how to pray in shrines and I think I'll be ok there. But I can't find much information about praying in temples. I think there must be some differences.

The big difference is that in temples, you don't clap your hands. Just pray quiet with your hands pressed together in front of your chest.

Thanks again for your answers. I already read everything. And especially thanks to Glimpigumpi. Your links are brilliant. They give very clear vision what I'm gonna find there and what I'll be supposed to do. Thank you. :)
