Funabashi

Keikyu Bus has direct bus services from Tokyo Haneda Airport to both Funabashi and Nishi-Funabashi stations, which (traffic and schedules permitting) are faster and easier than taking connecting trains. Services run hourly, take about an hour and cost ¥1,400. IC cards accepted. The main stations are 35.701744139.9852281 JR Funabashi on the JR Sobu line from Tokyo, adjacent to Keisei-Funabashi (which has direct services from Tokyo Narita Airport), and 35.707139.9592 Nishi-Funabashi , terminus of the perennially packed Tozai Line subway from Tokyo. The Tokyo Disney Resort's Maihama station is only 13 min away from Nishi-Funabashi on the JR Keiyō line. Incredibly, the city has two racecourses: Nakayama allows betting on weekends and Funabashi on weekdays. Funabashi is known for its big-box shopping: it's home to Japan's first IKEA and many more. Pick carefully: Funabashi has more than its fair share of love hotels....
