What does any of this have to do with photography?

What's a good WW-2 themes multiplayer video game for my Playstation 3? Btw I own a Canon.

Google a hotel and look at it's ratings or airbnb. No need for any more replies. Let this thread die.

>i dont have any helpful advice to offer but here is my dumb reply!
its fine guys, let the people that have actually travelled give their advice.

You could ask an imageboard and get one asshole's opinion, or you could actually do your research and draw upon the aggregate wisdom of tens of thousands of assholes. Don't be a retard, go to hotel booking sites and look for alternatives if you can't afford it.

It isn't a cheap place to travel and there are far more tourists than ever before going there so put two and two together, you're not going to stumble across an insane bargain.

your cheapest is going to be business capsule hotels. which one you pick is up to you.

Using hostels is your cheapest bet. It will be between 25-50USD each night. Otherwise if you are looking to stay at hotels it will be about 100-120USD each night for a decent one. Be aware that there are still many hotels with smoking rooms there, especially the APA ones. So if you book online, make sure it is not a smoking room if you don't smoke.

tokyo is about the safest city on earth. you could drop your wallet on the pavement and it would be there in the same spot the next day, with a nice circle chalked around it to make it easier for you to spot

AirBnB is what I did, it's pretty useful for getting nice spots in the city for cheap.

Why Tokyo? It is just a big city.

Why not somehwere unique like kyoto or Hiroshima?

>>3052468
i like big cities. saw photos of kyoto and im not interested in that sort of postcard stuff.

>>3052270
I would suggest killing yourself then my man

I mean Tokyo is neat an all, but if all you are going to is Tokyo, you are wasting a trip. Shit, Osaka alone is worth a visit. Has a very unique culture.

>saw photos of kyoto and im not interested in that sort of postcard stuff.

Kyoto has a population of 1 million, and over 2000 shrines and temples.

Sure, Kiyomizudera and Kinkakuji may be a little touristy, but there is a lot more to Kyoto.

No niggers no crime, funny how that works

>>3052712
If I'd only be going for a week like op, I'd stick to Tokyo.

For street photos Tokyo (I'm sure NYC is too but never been to the states) is kind of like the alps for skiing.

Anyway op just do your own research, there's a million places here. Cheapest you can get is probably some hostel with like 14 people sharing the room at around €20-€25 a night.

No whites no mass shootings, crazy how that works

Flight ticket prices to nipland dropped quite significantly over past year or two. At least from europe. Bought myself some tickets to Narita too so will be going there in about three weeks. Yodobashi HERE I CUM.

>>3053211
that's the wrong Yodobashi senpai. The one in Shinjuku is more tailored towards photography

>>3052250
There's a lot of nice hostels in the Asakusa area, I'd recommend the ones called Nui and Toco. They're affordable and very clean with nice staff and atmosphere

There's a tiny one called retrometro backpackers which is also good

Traveling in tokyo isn't expensive at all, and capsule hotels are far from the cheapest deal you can get

>>3053211

Should spend a week on each major island. Two on Honsho.

>>3053174
r u dum

I stayed at the 1 Night 1980 Hostel Tokyo, which is basically 1980 Yen per night since it's a capsule hotel.

You get a locker where you can keep all your stuff in.

>>3053909
now thats a cool ass tip. thanks anon.

>capsule hotels are far from the cheapest deal you can get
What are better options?

Japan is super expensive, even a hostel is $20+

If you are going on the cheap try helpx, where you work a little for free room and food.

>>3054119
does that really work? what sort of work is one expected to do?

>>3052250

Housing isn't that bad in Japan. A hotel for under $100 a night isn't hard to find.

Food, on the other hand, is outrageous.

would it be too difficult to go and meet daido?

>>3054125
he's running around Shinjuku sometimes, maybe if you're lucky

>>3054116
hostels man they're around $20 a night
that isn't expensive at all

>>3054123
you can get a good meal for like 400 yen
