How to get to Osaka

Before Osaka there is a superexpress "Tokaido Shinkansen" from Tokyo (en route 2, 5 hours, comes to the station Shin-Osaka). Also, slower Nodzomi trains run 2-3 times per hour

Osaka is also connected by rail to the ancient capital of Kyoto and Kobe port

Osaka is served by two airports: Osaka and Kansai (Kansai Kokusai Kūkō, web site), built by Renzo Piano on an artificial island. It was built as an alternative to Narita Airport. Strangely enough, the flight from Tokyo airport to Kansai takes less time than the flight from Tokyo airport to Narita airport for many residents of Kanagawa Prefecture and southern Tokyo.
