Hi wise ones of QBN,
I have two weeks to go to Japan this fall.
Was definitely going to be in Tokyo, as that's where I fly in/out of.
If I could visit one other city while there, what would you recommend? I've heard good things about Kyoto.
I like nature, abandoned things, weird sights.
Thanks,
N

Odeo Onsen.

Most awesome city anywhere. Went in 2006 for 12 days to stay with a friend who lived there. Having a tour guide and free place to stay was massively great. If I think of some things I'll let you know.

Kyoto is a good choice for a second city to visit, as it's quite different from Tokyo. It's also not too far away, just a few hours on the shinkansen.

Oh yeah. You gotta buy used panties. Or at least browse a shop. No Tokyo trip is complete without experiencing the musty smell and downright wretchedness of a shop where you can buy panties that girls sold to have money for the weekend.

Fujisan... you can explore Aokigahara as well. Should be okay in fall (spring is when most of the suicides occur)– it's a wonderful place to visit though, *very* quiet.
For abandoned things, there are simply tons of places. Search 'haikyo' and peruse the hundreds of lists other people have found.
As for Tokyo, visit this first: http://www.hellodamage.com/top/t…
- While it's nice to have anywhere, you should definitely rent a bike in Kyoto. Cheaper to get around for the day and much more pleasant.ismith

Oh yeah, and if you find yourself overloaded in Tokyo you can always come to Yokohama... Minatomirai, Cup Noodle museum, Ramen museum (yes, different), etc.
