[edit] Buying tickets
Foreign tourists are required to buy their tickets in advance through Japanese travel agencies
This is false. Foreign tourists can purchase tickets upon arriving in Japan at any Lawson convenience store kiosk (called "Loppi"). Unfortunately the kiosk instructions are in Japanese only.
Lawson's website for Loppi uses pretty simple Japanese and a lot of pictures. I bought tickets recently for some friends and found the Loppi system pretty easy to use. Any ol' gaijin should be able to figure it out. I could swear I've seen the instructions in English somewhere too, but can't seem to remember where. Here's the site with the Japanese instructions: http://www.lawson.co.jp/lawson_more/ghibli/how_to_buy.html Kawaikunai 15:23, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Request for ammendment to Bus service

[edit] Tickets and Access
I guess the museum website mentions getting there via Mitaka station because of the bus service. But Kichijoji station should probably get a mention as the walk to the museum is only about 15 minutes and through the middle of Inokashira Koen. Kichijoji is one stop closer to tourist hotels in Shinjuku and the walk through the woods helps reduce tourist obesity. ;) Kawaikunai 15:37, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
