Konnichiwa to all my blog readers/ followers

I am going to share with you some of the applications that I find it useful when in Japan based on my recent Japan Trip 2018 experience.

1.Google Maps

2.Halal Navi

3.Tokyo Subway Navigation

Tokyo Subway Navigation for Tourists is a free application officially provided by Tokyo Metro Co., Ltd to enable users to search transfer information for the Tokyo Subway system (Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway). This application supports English, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Korean, Thai, French, Spanish and Japanese. It is highly recommended for visitors sight-seeing in Tokyo. Can also be used offline.

By simply touching the station names on the map, you can easily search for a route, or instead you can select your arrival and departure stations by using the landmark search functionality to search for the name of tourist spots such as Tokyo Tower or Senso-ji Temple or for the name of popular hotels. This application displays the main route, time required, and fares in a simple easy to understand format. Also because the application allows you to find the closest exit to landmarks near the station, you can stop worrying about navigating the huge number of subway exits, and simply relax and enjoy using the subway to sightsee around Tokyo. You can also use the application to check which stations offer a free Wi-Fi service.Make sightseeing in Tokyo convenient and pleasant!
