Huffington Post's Travel section has a good article on saving money on transportation while touring around Japan this summer.
They start it with:
Over-the-top festivals, fireworks extravaganzas, street-side barbeques, a chorus of cicadas singing in every tree, shaved ice, colorful cotton yukata kimonos and the clip clop of wooden sandals: The sights, sounds and flavors of summer in Japan are not to be missed.
Don't let the fear of high transportation costs hold you back from a visit at this uniquely Japanese time of year. Save big on transportation with these tips.One of the tips they cover is the JR Rail Pass, which I have covered on this blog and in The Monster Movie Fan's Guide To Japan on pages 10-12.
They also cover other transit passes of municipalities and long-distance all-night bus lines.
