Thanks and trip report

We have just completed a wonderful trip to Japan. Sincere thanks to all in this forum who has helped us in planning this trip. Sharing a few points which might help others..

1. We were a bit apprehensive about finding our way in big stations/ other places due to language issue.But it was perfectly manageable. We always approached the information centres and they guided us well.
People are super- helpful in any case. However, keep google translator handy. And reach train/ bus stations well in advance.

2 We spent 4 nights in Tokyo, two nights in Kamikochi and four nights in Kyoto. Visited Shirkawago on the way from Kamikochi to Kyoto. Would like to mention following places in particular..

a) Teamlab planet in Tokyo, an immersive digital reality show.
Not seen anything similar anywhere else.
b) Shibuya crossing.. world's busiest.
As suggested by someone here, we sat in the Starbucks here, sipping coffee and enjoying the sites, sounds and lights below. ( we went just before the evening). It was magical.
c) Kamikochi.. a beautiful scenic and quiet hill resort, five hours by bus ( or combination of train + bus) from Tokyo. Spend at least one night here. You can go for trekking if you stay longer.

4. Kyoto.. One of the most beautiful towns we have visited. Its greenery, old fashioned houses and temples are fascinating. Try to spend more time here.
Thanking all once again.. shall be glad to answer any query.
