>How do the toll roads work.
So basically there are two ways of paying tolls.
1) Go through the green lane, grab a ticket from either the auto ticketing machine or from the dude. At any exits or mid-route tolls (which exist to keep record of how far you traveled, I guess?), once again go to the green lane. You hand the booth guy your ticket. He'll tell you whatever you owe, and you pay it then and there. Some of these places take credit card, some only take cash./

2) Go through the purple electronic tolling lane. Only obstacle is that you need to prepare an ETC card (usually applied through your credit card company as any tolls are charged directly to your monthly credit card bill) and an ETC deck (bought and installed at any Japanese auto goods store).

>What are the price ranges?
Depends on how far you're traveling, on what road, and at what time you traveled.
For example, Ise to Tokyo in one single ride cost me about 8,000 yen. However, there's a 30% discount if you drove during the weekends, or on the weekdays if you passed a toll on a single leg of the trip between midnight to 4 AM.
The highway toll for my trip from Tokyo to Matsue, which was considerably further away than Ise, got bunked down from 12,500 yen to 8,500 yen since I started my trip at three in the morning.

I blame the geographical difference. If you've ever driven through Japan, it's just mountains fucking everywhere. Obviously it costs more to dig a tunnel or build a bridge and maintain those structures than you would with a flat road.

Trains just make sense because Japan's landmass simply isn't that big and pretty damn reliable.

that being said, my local shops have known me since i was a preteen up untill now, and will always score me a few cans or packs on the side. They know I'm always good for finding them new customers, who like to spend lots of money on high profit items. like kimchi, anything pocky, pocari sweat, candy, snacks, and ramen.

and grannys homemade onigiri. after shows back when i was a teenager we would pass out in their parking lot till granny and the rest showed up, and buy food to give us enough juice to drive home. she would make us drink miso soup, and eat rice to make sure we were good to drive.

If you only want to do tourist stuff then you don't need to know Japanese.

A lot of places and directions, in train stations for example, have roman character names written as well these days. If you're going to learn anything just for tourism learn kana I guess. It's simple and quick enough and would help a bit for things in katakana especially.

I think it was more the idea that hearing a wind chime makes you feel cooler, even though it isn't helping in any real way.

And seeing it was like 33~35 degrees in Tokyo today the workers could have done with all the feeling cooler they could get.

Its to make you (or i guess the workers) feel cooler. They also run water over the street in front of construction sites (like many businesses tend to do on hot days) for the same reason.

I've been on the Tadami line. One of the bridges was damaged due to the quake in 2011 though so it only goes from Aizuwakamatsu to Kaneyama station and back. Not sure if it goes over that particular bridge in your photo still. It's hard to tell from the air if it matches any bridges I went over.
