Enjoy your trip!

BTW, one more tip. Ask your hotel where you can find the nice restaurants. On my first visit to Tokyo I was sure that I would find a restaurant myself, but no such luck. I probably passed several fine restaurants, but I was not able to read the signs. And in some of the restaurants I did find, they only had Japanese menus, and the waiters did not speak any English. Since I did not want to take any risks, I kept on walking for several hours, until I found a KFC. So at least I did not go to bed hungry, but with very sore feet.

God tur!

>Awesome thanks for your advise Tore. I tried to write in Norwegian but it just took to long so I switched to English.
>I found some YouTube videos (How to do stuff in Japan) which were pretty good. Thanks for the link. I will check it out.

>>Hi Einar,

>>I have visited Japan many times, and I have one good advice. I strongly recommend that you take some time to study Japanese etiquette, it's very easy to offend them deeply if you are not careful. One example is when you receive a business card, they will always give it to you with both hands, so you must receive it with both hands. In their mind a business card is a part of their soul, and they give it to you with great respect and ceremony.

>>>I am traveling to Japan tomorrow for about 2 weeks. It is for work but I am hoping to have some free time while I am there. I will be in Tokyo for about 6 days including the weekend. Is there something I just must see while in Japan?
