    Shinjuku and Shibuya not connected to shinkansen trains directly and always crowded.

      You can try to avoid pick our travelling for the local trains - for Shinkansens consider getting the green class tickets instead - they are expensive but ideal if you want to avoid crowds

    Has anyone from overseas pay cash for train? Is this stupid idea?

    • @PhatLifeProject

      it is not impossible but just very cumbersome as you have to purchase every time you board a train and also you have to work out how much to pay
      A IC card is definitely the way to go unless you plan on mostly walking everywhere
