The train system in Japan is absolutely mind-boggling.
There are way too many train companies like the Japan railway, Tokyo Metro, Toei, Keikyu, Keio, Keisei, Odakyu, Seibu, Tobu and Tokyu.
Check out the picture above. Basically when you want to get to one place to another, you may have to transfer to diff lines. Very complicated at first but slowly you’ll get used to it.
I got lost a few times actually but it’s after an experience. I took the bullet train from Kyoto to Tokyo but I’ll leave that experience for another blog entry.

Oh my gosh, the trains look so clean. Here in Rome its freaking full of graffiti, you just cant imagine.

Yes the train system is complex.. but I usually just still to the JR Yamanote line. It goes to most of the must-go places in Tokyo.
