by Lingualorphan Thirteen stories and 5 minutes is how long it took my friends car to get down from it resting place. Put your car on the turntable, the man turns you into position drive it in and get out. It then is taken to a stall until you retrieve it. Fully operated from the ground this car parking lot proved to be a surprise to me. Nothing incredible, but being sick and seeing anything really new to you is like WOW!

 Fuel Cell Powered Bus by ClareyD One of the great things about Expo 2005 is the wide variety of ways to get around the site. All the forms of transportation are clean and in most cases visions of the future. Walk: First you will need to walk a lot! ITMS: These large busses powered by compressed natural gas that are very high tech and either travel alone or in convoys. The main route is down the west site of the global loop from the North gate to the Expo Dome in Global Common 4 with only 1 stop on the way. They also run out to the interactive fun zone in the far west of the site. COST: 200Yen for adults and 100Yen for children FCHV: Fuel Cell powered busses that run between the main site north gate and the Seto area. FREE Global Tram: All electric tram that runs around the global loop and stops at four points (North, South, East and West). It follows metal inserts in the wooden walkway, but seems to move quite slowly. COST: 500Yen for Adults and 300Yen for Children Cable Cars: There are cable cars connecting North and South of the main site and also running from the North to the Seto area. COST: 600Yen for Adults, 300Yen for Children (FREE for Seto Area transfer) Pedal Taxis: Pedal taxis also operate around the global loop. These seem faster than the Global Tram, but I do not have the details on how much they cost. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Vending machines of train tickets by Yujiro In Japan,usually,you'll buy local train tickets by a vending machine. So,I'd like to introduce how to buy a train tickets. 1.You have to confirm your destination and the fare on the map. (The map is usually located above the vending machine.) 2.Insert bills or coins into the vending machine. 3.Push the fare button which indicates your fare of the destination. 4.The ticket and the change(If any) will come out from the vending machine. 5.Take the ticket and go to the gate. 6.Insert the ticket to the ticket check machine and go through the gate.(Don't forget to get the ticket from the machine.) 7.When you get off the train and go to the gate,you have to insert the ticket to the machine again.(This time,the ticket will be gone by the machine.)

 Nagoya International Airport by vincentf It is a mere 20min drive from Nagoya. Note: The new Centrair International Airport has since been opened (Apr 2005). Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

by Sharrie I took the bullet train from Tokyo to Hiroshima & then to Nagoya. Nagoya is about 3 hours from Tokyo & very close to Kobe & Kyoto. Hiroshima is further west & takes about 5 hours from Tokyo. IMHO, the best way to get around the island of Honshu is by the bullet trains. Regular service, punctual & comfortable. For a tourist, the 7 days Japan Rail pass is indispensable. Get it before leaving home! Leave a Comment

 Nagoya Shinkansen platform by Hewer If you are travelling overland to Nagoya from another major city in Japan, the shinkansen (bullet train) is the way to go. It's not the cheapest way to get around but is way faster than anything else. Here are some times, fares and the duration of travel between Nagoya and both Osaka and Tokyo. The first Nagoya-bound train leaves Osaka at 6am and last leaves at 10pm. The fare varies between 5500 and 6500 yen one way. Travel time is about one hour and five minutes. In regards to Tokyo, the first and last trains leave at the same times as they leave Osaka. The fare is 10600 yen one way. Travel time is one hour and forty minutes. Leave a Comment

by cvilla007 Nagoya has an excellent, I mean superb transportation system. Nagoya Station is the hub of all the subways and trains, even though the station is located a bit northwest of downtown Nagoya, which should be considered Sakae. Nagoya Station as it now stands was built about 10 years ago. This station hosts the largest building complex of any train station in the world. The two JR Nagoya twin towers are the landmarks of Nagoya, and there are two major shopping stores, Matsuzakaya and Takeshimaya. There is also a huge underground shopping complex and a few other department stores connected to the station. The best place to get food is the 7th floor of Matsuzakaya. The entire floor is dedicated to eateries. All train lines stop in Nagoya Station so this place gets crazy busy. The subway is the best way to get around. All stations are marked with romaji, or Roman Numerals, and there are also English voices on the trains to notify you of each approaching station. The trains get a bit crowded in the morning and late evening when revellers are returning home. Because the station is so large, with so many interconnecting train lines, it gets might confusing trying to find yourself around. There is an awesome information booth in the station, with all English-speaking staff. Unfortunately, the signs leading to this info booth are lacking, so I haven't been able to find the exact location after stumbling upon it once before. But the station masters are all eager to assist you even though they don't speak English well. Best bet is to use a map to get around and have plenty of extra time if you're a first time visiter to the station. Leave a Comment
