Traveling around Tokyo with the mass transit system was an experience. Here's a few hints, books, and links to help a bit. A useful map to find ones way around Tokyo is Tokyo City Atlas: A Bilingual Guide (3rd Ed.) (Paperback). It saved me a lot of time, trying to figure out which area I'm looking for, and which station stations to get from point A ( Read more... )
